It's been a while since I've read the book, but if I recall there was no definitive reason for it. There were two theories, however. One was that it referred to his sharp-dressed appearance. People who were always well-dressed were called "jelly" or "jelly bean." I guess if he were around nowadays he'd be called a "metrosexual." The other theory, somewhat related, was that it was from one of the criminals Bryce had killed. Supposedly the criminal's last words were something to the effect of, "I can't believe I was killed by a jelly bean."

Again, my recollection may be a little off.

As for his holster, I thought I'd read somewhere he wore an SD Meyers rig. Not sure if that's accurate, though.
