Default Question about a certain Chic Gaylord Holster

I'm curious to know if anyone has any experience with or knowlege of the Gaylord holster called the Blue Streak, or if they can explain how it worked. Any photos would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Samcolt45

I don't have any pictures, but several of my NYPD uncles used Chic Gaylord pocket holsters back in the 60's. The Blue Streak is simply a shoulder holster that one could pivot the holstered handgun backwards, allowing one to shoot an assailant who was behind you.

Bet that would give you a bit of a "rash" on your underarm.
