@@craftholstersnice!! Really good design.
Finally, someone showed a mag reload with this upside down mag holder
Cool holster - I love the rotation, it's genius. It gave me one of those "duh, why didn't I think of that" moments... Good video - thank you sir.
😂 glad I'm not the only who gets those moments too lol
They have been a solid company so far in my experience and Al is always very helpful
I'm in total agreement with all that. I've gotten to know Al pretty well at this point. We actually occasionally email back and forth at this point just to say hello. He's a pretty cool dude
Ah! Back in my day, shoulder rigs ruled! Especially the ones from Bianchi!!! That’s a handsome and quality looking rig.
I wonder why they lost some of their popularity? I feel like I've been missing out on this style of carry this whole time, it's dang comfy! I haven't got to watch your video from earlier yet but I like the new channel name 👍 thanks Alex!
@@AlphaRomeoOneFive
Thanks! Seeing that Todd was demonetized, I want to stay away from YT police radar and made my channel name as bland as possible. I'm still going to use my channel icon as Strictly Plinking so I don't lose any subbers.
Those shoulder rigs maybe making a comeback. I own 2 of them and mine are straight up from the 80s made by Galco. The leather is still holding up after all these decades! Cool that they sent you one to test!
@Small Potatoes I definitely know then name Galco. Galco and in this video Falco seem to be the two big leather holster companies out there. Not a bad idea to stay off the radar right now, they seem to kinda go in waves in hitting gun channels. I looked today and they demonitized a bunch of my video's, I'm sure this one will be too. The most annoying part is when they do it they don't even tell you 😡
@@AlphaRomeoOneFive
Don’t know if my name change will do anything. Todd said he was notified about demonetizing his channel. You weren’t, but just on certain vids? Da hek are they up to?
Yeah the demonitization of videos vs the entire channel is a whole different beast. I'm not sure how close you pay attention to videos that you've monetized but if you go and look at old videos that were approved in the past I'm sure that you'll see some of them have had the ads shut off so they're not pulling in money anymore. They don't tell you when they do that 😡
Hey Adam! My friend, your new video is awesome! Thanks a lot for putting it together despite the fact you've been incredibly busy lately, I really, really appreciate it, mate! :) Happy to hear you love the holster and its functionality! Regards, Al
Thanks Al and thanks for your patience! I'm so looking forward to the work life slowing down here. Have a great weekend brother!
Even though I've wanted to get the over the shoulder holster I'm pretty content for now with my OWB holster for the time being. I did, however, use your promo code and ordered a black leather double magazine pouch. They have some really nice items. Their mag pouch is better than the individual clip on ones that I have now. I like how it goes through my belt like my EDC holster does. Thanks a bunch and great video as always my friend.
Awesome, I'm sure you'll enjoy it! This is the second holster I've reviewed from them now with the other one being an owb leather holster. I was really impressed with the quality of it as well. I think I did that review before you were subbed. Anyway when you get your mag carrier let me know how you end up liking it. I appreciate the support brother and I'll have a subscriber giveaway video up on Friday evening so stay tuned for that!
i have a roto holster, i did have a problem with the mag carrier, i couldn't snap it with my 8rd mags for my 1911 so i added 2 more snaps on the same strap
Look at you 007😀
They call me Chocolate, White Chocolate 😎
@@AlphaRomeoOneFive 😆 🤣 😂
Blue Moon Detective Agency !!!!!
He actually had more of a Miami Vice look😀@@AlphaRomeoOneFive
Excellent video of this holster the tilt actually mite make me buy one
Thanks brother. Yeah the roto feature that it has is quite brilliant. Major props to whoever came up with that design!
Would that work on fat guys😃🤙 Never had one before and always thought would be nice.
I think it would work just fine, I'm not skinny by any means as you saw by my gut hanging out lol. I was surprised at just how comfy it is, having that weight on your shoulders makes it all really lightweight and less noticeable than carrying on your waist
Excuse me if I missed it. What was the price at the time of this video?
This just goes to show that you don't need to have fancy setups and amazing production skills to produce solid, useful content. This was a solid review! Thanks, bro.
I would LOVE to see Craft Holsters make this with a swappable holster so that you can swap to different guns on the same system.
@vasocreta thanks for the kind words. I appreciate it and am glad it was helpful! The idea about being able to switch holsters on it is good. You should reach out and suggest that to them
Pretty cool holster and being that you want to bring back Miami Vice and such....LOL....I do like the way it swivels for better access as that is nice....Good stuff....
Miami sounds nice right about now, I can see why people become snow birds when they get older. Every winter as I get older seems to get colder and longer lol. Yeah the rotation of the holster is genius, whoever came up with that idea and design needs a raise!
@@AlphaRomeoOneFive 👍👍
500 mag vibes.....
You know it 😎
This man right here is putting in the WORK!
At times, on your initial movement to draw, you're "tucking" your right shoulder. In doing so, you throw off your body trigonometry. Keep that right side out and still. Your draw time will reduce AND your weapon presentation will be cleaner, leading to faster on target time.
Concerning the negligent discharge, that is one reason I carry the S&W 9mm Equalizer WITH both the "grip" safety AND the "thumb" safety.
Definitely a nifty contraption. I've heard good things about Craft Holsters.
Yeah whoever designed it deserves a bonus as it's pretty genius. They definitely make sell some great holsters and their customer service seems to be top notch.
Got one in for my 1911 in the Fall of 2023. I really wanted to like this holster but can not. I'm 6' tall and a fit 170 pounds and this holster just doesn't fit me. I had wanted a shoulder holster that could give me a vertical carry at my side but this carries just above a cross-draw holster - which can be had for a lot less money. I've shortened the adjustments as far as they will go and the holster still hangs loose and at my waist, and the straps want to slide off my shoulders. It seems like the mfr sized these for larger bodies. As other reviewers have noted, the rear mag is hard to get at. I also just discovered a REAL problem with this holster. The "securing" snap on the holster does NOTHING to secure the pistol. My 1911 easily slides in and out of the holster, regardless if the strap is snapped or not. So... this holster is a big fail if you want your 1911 pistol to be secured. The satisfaction guarantee from the company is a joke and 100% worthless.
My dad just ordered this for me as a birthday gift. I've been watching videos on it and already I don't think I like it. The whole "roto" thing seems unnecessary and bulky as all hell. Seems to defeat the purpose of concealment
Not all holsters have to be made or used for concealment. This holster, in particular as far as I use it, is primarily for open carry around the farm. I'll occasionally wear it for long road trips as well. For conceal carrying with it you definitely need a jacket or coat over the top. As far as it being bulky goes, once you put it on I don't notice it being too bulky at all. Everyone has different preferences and styles for what may work or may not work for them.
You probably should have your dad order you a Condor vertical holster. They are like $21 versus $180. That way you could have taken the difference in cost, and bought a new vape pipe and accessories., Or juice. I carry a para ordnance 2011, the difference in a regular leather shoulder holster is day and night.. My Para is a heavy gun. Rolling it out of the roto is faster
. They are simply badass and typically Simps would not buy them.
Great video! I purchased mine for the same reasons as you. This is the Cadillac of holsters.
I've always been a fan of shoulder holsters. I'll take a look for sure. Thanks for sharing Brother 👊 👍 🇺🇸
Right on, thanks brother! If I remember correctly you're a truck driver right? I'd imagine shoulder carry would be a good comfortable way of carrying for that line of work.
Good review. I'm getting to the point in my life when I'm considering suspenders and the holster looks like it could work as both.
😅 it could totally double as both! Considering you live in your coat for half the year a shoulder holster would actually be a pretty good option for you 🤔
Sweet, I have been looking at shoulder holsters.
I don't have any other ones to compare this one to unfortunately but am loving this holster. It's such a comfortable way of being able to carry. With the weight being on your shoulders it's almost like nothing is there.
Good review. Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Always wanted a shoulder holster, but never picked one up. A nice shoulder holster like this with a classic 1911 would be perfect. Great tip on the screw loctite. Awesome review brother! Hope you're having a great week!
Yeah a 1911 in a shoulder holster would have a really cool kind of classy gangster style to it 😎 Hope you have a wonderful weekend brother, give Kimber a pet for me!
The way it rotated out is genius. My brother got a dual rig for his p30’s. I’ve tried it out and you can carry quite a bit of weight with noticing it. I believe it was a few hundred dollars though. It was custom made how he wanted it. They do function very well
Dual carrying pistols is awesome! That seems downright old school gangster to me 😅 Craft sells double pistol shoulder holsters as well, I just couldn't see myself ever doing that. You bring up a great point as to how well these handle the weight, I should have mentioned that. You don't really notice any weight at all
I'm not having that ,but my TH-cam will stop .
Thankyou for your video. You introduced me to the Craft Rotoholster. Now I own 4! Kimber 1911 Rapide Dawn 9mm, S&W 500 4in, Sig P226 X5, and a Brazilian .357 revolver 6in! Thankyou for revealing this to me. I love my shoulder holsters and all their accessories!
Awesome! Glad your enjoying them!
Nice setup! I was looking for a shoulder harness/holster for my SD9VE and the leather ones were all pretty spendy. I ended up finding a military surplus Tanker's harness that had an attachment for my Safariland GLS holster for like $18. It has a strap that goes around your waist rather than clipping to your belt to keep it tight to your body. I like that "roto" design on yours. Keep putting it to use and give us a 3 month or 6 month update!👍🏻🍻
Thanks brother! I'm actually so far behind in getting reviews knocked out I think I've already had this holster for 6 or 7 months 🤦 While it's not something I can wear everyday because of work it's held up and been great so far. Sounds like you got a good setup going for yourself. I hope it works well for you 👍
Excellent review ! 👍
It's been a long time since I've seen a review on a shoulder holster.
Got me thinking 🤔
Thanks Jerry! I've always wanted one as I've always thought it looked like a cool way of carrying lol. I was surprised with how much of a comfortable style of carry it is.
Very good job showing. I like the looks of the holster a lot. Never thought of one till now. Will check it out
Thanks Scott. It's a nice way of being able to carry as the weight almost seems to disappear vs carrying on your waist. Have a blessed weekend brother 🙏
lets go brandon brother
Good video thanks man. I got a brown leather one coming in the mail for a 1911
Thanks, and I hope you like yours!
Nice holster..I have a holster t- shirt that holds in the vertical position with no straps..it has two mag holsters, and is amedextris..I bought it a little tight so it doesn't move around, but your holster looks pretty good..👍
Interesting 🤔 Is it a thicker kind of more rigid t-shirt then? Does it have any kind of trigger guard? I may have to try one out as I'm intrigued.
@@AlphaRomeoOneFive it's more of a lighter stretchy material, kind of like an elastic elbow or knee pad only thinner..Yes, it covers the trigger, holds any size pistol, or, at least an auto..It holds the gun firmly to your body, and it barely moves when you draw..I ordered it on line from somewhere about 4 yrs. ago, I don't even remember where, biy I do remember that I thought it was an American company, but it ended up being from Chyna..🥲..The 20th is my birthday, but I will get a pic of it n send it to you 👍
@Tony Lawrence Well in that case happy birthday tomorrow! Yeah definitely send me a pic if you remember 👍
@@AlphaRomeoOneFive ok, I will, and Thank You for the BD wish 👍
they had their brown belts on sale. used your code and saved 10%. thanks!
Awesome, glad you found something you like! I should try one of their belts as well, I need something for nicer occasions other than my more "tactical" belts lol. Let me know how you end up liking it 👍
Love the shirt Adam! I might have to buy another one!
When would I be to argue with that 😅😉
Pretty snazzy there Dirty Harry =)
😅 I do what I can!
I love shoulder rigs. This is def one I would consider adding. Well done bro!

My brother!
Been meaning to ask. How large is the property you shoot at?
The house and buildings around it sit on 2 quarters of land which would be 320 acres. However the family doesn't technically own the land anymore even though we're still living on it.
Good review, well presented… and Let’s go Brandon!!!
Thanks Alfonso 🇺🇲 let's go Brandon!
That's a nice rig!
Yeah it is. I'm starting to dig leather more and more. Thanks brother!
Excellent review. Thank you.
You're welcome. Thanks for taking time to watch and leave a comment
Nice rig brother ! & sounded like some mighty fine shooting too !!! GOD BLESS BROTHER
I was shooting at 1 yard, don't be too impressed 😉😅 God has been good to me and being able to live here on the farm with my own range is a true blessing and definitely helped with my shooting.
