"I also had a Border Patrol holster, made famous by Sheriff Bill Jordan."

Glock 'em Down,

Bill Jordan was a Border Patrolman before WW II, then went into the Marine Corps. He went back into the BP after the war. He was never a sheriff, although his uncle, Henderson Jordan, was a Louisana sheriff, who was present when Bonnie and Clyde were killed.

Bill Jordan took the basic Border Patrol holster, which had been around for a number of years, and had it lined with steel, with a steel shank in the drop part. This kept the holster in a fixed position and also kept the holster from collapsing in his suitcase while traveling to his fastdraw exhibitions.

Don Hume Leather made a version called the Jordan "River" holster and it had Bill's signature on it.
