I built this double bandolier rig for a customer who is getting into CAS, but has severe back problems which precludes him wearing belts for any length of time.
I patterned this after a hollywood style drop loop rig with low cut quick draw style holsters ..(which he requested). I made the left hand holster crossdraw, and added removable ammo strips above each holster. Hammer thongs and leg tiedowns are included, of course!
We topped it off with simple border stamping and fancy three piece buckles...

This rig was really fun to build and I hope to build more. If you would like a version of this please contact me... I'll build these as a single rig as well and pretty much build to suit... Available for Ruger and SAA/clones only, for the time being..

What am I calling this rig?......
"The El Guapo"........what else!!! :D

ciao y'all....

reuben..
 
that is a outstanding looking rig. I have ms and wearing a belt rig will make my right leg go numb in about a half hour so this is more than just a little interesting to me
 
Thanks for all the kind words gang.. I enjoy my job.. Just wish it paid better at times... but it the price one pays to stay living off grid and off the road system (as much as possible!).
I'm working on a lot of new things that I hope will be viable and marketable...
I'll keep ya all posted!
Thanks again...

regards...

Really interesting and innovative design. I'll bet more people than just me would like to see this displayed on an actual person to get the full affect of it. A nice looking lady sure wouldn't hurt things any.

Kind of looks like it would be right at home on Tom Selleck's "Quigley" character. But he might be a little expensive to hire. Of course the year would be wrong but Hollywood has been known to take a few liberties now and then.
 
I tried to find a "proper" model to try and take pics before delivery, but was unable to find anyone under such short notice.
That.. and I was broke, and needed the $$ to buy supplies and go back up north...
The owner thought it carried well.. as I did.
Hopefully next time I will be able to get more pics of it in action!

later y'all.....

Keep in mind that Bill lives in the middle of nowhere compared to us lower 48'ers....that post was the only model that replied to his local ad.

Maybe the customer would oblige you with a pic some time.

I like the idea and was really unaware of how difficult a belt could be with a bad back. I hope I can avoid it but time will tell....At least I know where to get my holster rig!
