Since Sammy is out goofing off on the company’s dime this month, I get column duties. Consider me a guest columnist then, and remind Connor this is what actual work looks like.

I was at the great Tulsa Gun Show some time ago and spotted some absolutely top quality leather gear on a table. Mixed in were several “chest” rigs that really caught my eye. Since moving to the Great Mid-West, I’ve had a need for a good quality, practical chest holster for a big bore handgun. We’ve seen some feral dogs on our property a couple of times and there are wild boar creeping into the area (“Shoot on sight!” says Missouri Fish and Game). Plus, being in the country, although the odds are remote, there are still miscreants around. So these obviously well-designed rigs really got my attention.

I introduced myself to the maker, David Johnston, who hails from Chugiak, Alaska. He and his clients actually need rigs like this for bear country, and his “Guide’s Choice” model is the final result of his efforts.

“This stuff gets tested in the real world all the time,” said Dave, “and we get solid feed-back from users. We’ve listened, and what you see here is the result of literally years of use in the field by hunters, guides and outdoorsmen all over. The toughest testing ground is the Alaskan wilderness, and the Guide’s Choice is just that, what they choose themselves.” And I believe it.
