Galco Holster - Verticle Shoulder Holster System

Professionals who carry a firearm as part of their daily work recognize Galco's Shoulder Holster Systems as the most comfortable and concealable in the world. After all, Galco has spent the last three and a half decades perfecting them--and we haven't stopped searching for ways to make them even better!

After a number of helicopter pilots in LE Air units briefed us on their special needs, we turned our attention early in '04 to designing a new Vertical Shoulder Holster System. We combined features from our Miami Classic Holster with a traditional vertical shoulder holster into a system that’s perfect for 21st century in-flight LE and Emergency Personnel. It allows comfortable carry, and can be worn exposed over a flight suit in emergency room settings without alarming civilians with an exposed horizontal muzzle.

The VHS has been field tested over military BDU’s and general hunting clothing as well, with great success.

And although we did not set out to create another concealment rig, we discovered that we did!--it’s hard to break away from one's roots. The new VHS provides the long-awaited alternative for those who want the concealment of our Miami Classic but, for what ever reason, prefer the classic vertical carry style.

A key component of this patented shoulder system is its spider harness. All four points of the spider harness can pivot independently and are connected by our unique clover shaped Flexalon™ swivel back plate, which is a Galco trademark. This along with our patented swivel connectors results in a perfect fit and lasting comfort for all sizes and shapes.

This system is constructed of premium saddle leather and includes holster, harness and ammo carrier. The VHS was designed to function without a holster side tie down and will not accommodate one. For these and other VHS accessories and components that may be purchased separately, see shoulder system accessories.

The Vertical Shoulder Holster System is ambidextrous, in tan or black finish..
