Frequently Asked Questions

What are Galco's newest concealed carry holsters?

At SHOT Show 2020, Galco introduced the Fast-Tracks Pack waist pack with a pivoting holster, the Jack Slide 2.0 with a rigid Kydex shell for easy reholstering, and the QuickTuk Cloud, a comfortable hybrid IWB holster. They also updated their classic shoulder rig and released the versatile Switchback holster for outdoorsmen.

How does the Galco Fast-Tracks Pack improve firearm deployment?

The Fast-Tracks Pack features a unique pivoting holster component. When an activation cord is pulled, the holster pivots the firearm upwards, presenting it for a quick and easy draw without the need to dig around inside the pack, making it much faster than older fanny pack designs.

What makes the Galco Jack Slide 2.0 holster easy to reholster?

The Jack Slide 2.0 uses a Kydex holster pocket, providing a rigid shell. Unlike older leather versions that could collapse, this rigidity ensures the holster maintains its shape when drawing, allowing for a smooth and easy return of the firearm without needing to loosen your belt.

What is the best concealed carry method for heavier individuals?

For heavier individuals, belt holsters worn outside the waistband on the strong side are generally recommended. Inside-the-waistband holsters can be less comfortable unless accommodations like larger belts and pants are made. Shoulder holsters may also be difficult to access effectively.

Where can I find instructional videos for Galco holsters?

Galco Gun Leather provides instructional videos on their website, GalcoGunLeather.com, and their YouTube channel. These videos cover topics like drawing from shoulder holsters, belt holsters, and inside-the-waistband holsters, offering guidance on proper technique and product use.
