The guides choice chest holster looks great. I can see how efficient the holster can be for both hunters and target shooters too. I like the accessiblity when it comes to someone who is disable and using a wheelchair, etc. The chest rig is indeed a great setup. Thanks for sharing and posting.
I now have 4: Glock 20 10mm but sold that and fit my glock 22 or 17, ruger vaquero 7.5" 44 mag., s&w 629, and ruger bisley blackhawk 45 colt/45acp convertible. Just got in hip holster for my ruger vaquero 5.5" 44 mag. Love their products. Well worth the money. I'll pass them down to my boy when I'm gone and I'm sure he will then pass them down to his kids!!!! I will I'm sure order more before I croak.
I am a happy camper! My 1911 double stack chest holster came yesterday , Oct 8th 2016, and everything about the holster is magnificent, thankyou Diamond D Leather!
"the quality will remain long after the price has been forgotten" Just got mine. This is a solid company and the holsters craftsmaship is excellent and the design is is just plain smart!. I feel obligated to express my sinceare thanks to the guys and gals @ diamond D leather.
Very nice video I just bought mine. I actually bought two for my anaconda 44 8 1/4 inch barrel and my Smith and Wesson 508 1/4 inch barrel. Can’t wait to get them you do very nice work thanks again oh and by the way, I walk in beer country when I go hiking show I don’t really have to worry now they’ll get accessing my firearms.
Love this thing. I carry a 1911 when i hunt and the holster doesnt interfere with my tree harness at all yet allows ready access to my sidearm at all times whether its ascending, descending, or walking to or from the woods with my gear.
Quick tip: when you get it and it’s too tight. Wrap any sharp edges like your front sight in tape and give a couple quick sprays of olive oil cooking spray. This will let you work it in without damaging the leather or needing a hydraulic press to remove it.
@SafariOutfitter Thanks, I was trying to get it across to Diamond but unless I purchased it upfront I would never get to show just how useful it would be. I am not able to afford the full price and I knew they were passing around samples so I tried. Would still love to see someone out there show everyone how well the concept works with their equipment.
I just purchased this holster for my S&W 586 from Amazon. Why? Because I can bet my holster quickly. Plus, I not out run a Bear, an Elk, or a Salmon for that matter. Plus, I can carry this concealed in cooler/colder months. But mostly, I have wanted one for a long time. Thank you for making such a fine chest rig as the Guides Choice.
Hey Dave, I'd been planning on recording a video years ago when I first spoke to you about the Guide Holster and procrastination got the best of me. I finally shot the video and posted on my channel. I listed links to your webste and your RUclips channel, but I was hoping to get you to post this video as a response since your video is much more detailed. Thanks, William.
I like the concept and would have purchased several of them years ago, BUT they do not make them suede lined ! Too bad ! 'Cause I do not use a non-lined leather holster. I just don't, nor wouldn't.............
Yes we can make that. Our retention strap comes standard on all of the semi-auto's and is going to be your third form of retention for that weapon. The revolvers can use a hammer thong however it is not available for semi-auto's. Thank you.
Yes it will. We make it specifically for a number of different guns and barrel length. March/April American Handgunner has an article about the DE and our holster. Thanks
I received mine in TX today. I love it! Thank you.
Finally the man behind the stamp on my holster!…thank y’all so much…matt in ky
Great holster ! I have purchased six of them for different guns I own !

Just ordered mine for my 454 Raging Judge Magnum. I can't wait.

@firearms1894 That's a great point about the ability for someone in a wheelchair being able to use the guide holster.

I have been trying to see if you guys have made one for a S&W 500 magnum.
Could I order one in blackened leather instead of brown?
+Chris9183 Sorry, Natural Oil is the only color option for the Guide's Choice™ Chest Holster.

Sorry, natural oil is our only option.

I have a S&w M&P 40. I would like to get your holster. What would you suggest,With a safety strap or with out.?
Yes we can make that. Our retention strap comes standard on all of the semi-auto's and is going to be your third form of retention for that weapon. The revolvers can use a hammer thong however it is not available for semi-auto's.
Thank you.
Thank you. That's what I needed to know.
44 mag or 454 casull for bear??
Absolutely 1000%
The DE 50ae with a muzzle brake basically has a 7.2 in barrel. Does this system work with my gun?
Yes it will. We make it specifically for a number of different guns and barrel length. March/April American Handgunner has an article about the DE and our holster. Thanks
It is a beautiful holster, but way too much, sorry.
