Initially it seemed a little expensive, HOWEVER...... I've NEVER had a Rig last this long, work so well and look this good, sooooo I am going to say in retrospect it was actually a BARGAIN! Remember, EVERY piece that you get from them is CUSTOM MADE!
I believe the Holster was just over $100, the belt maybe about $120 and the dump pouch about $45 so the entire rig was around $265 12 years ago. I believe his prices have gone up slightly over the last 12 years but not substantially. So was that too much to spend on a rig that has performed perfectly for 12 years and will more than likely last me the rest of my life? Truthfully, I think it was a TRUE BARGAIN!
Back in the day when I was buying store brand Cowhide holsters and belts I went through them at the rate of a few per year looking for something that performed well and held up - I just kept looking and looking until I found Kramer's Horsehide. To me (and others who carry every day) Horsehide is the best thing since sliced bread.
Cowhide belts start to get floppy and soft when worn for 8 hours a day, every day but the double thick Horsehide is as stiff as ever and this whole rig just wears like iron!
When I buy a holster to wear strictly at the Range as a convenient place to stick the gun when not in my hand, any old "el cheapo" piece of leather will do. When I want a rig for serious every day carry, perfect retention and without all the gimmicks, I would look no further than Kramer! If tomorrow I was to choose a different EDC-CCW I'd be on the phone again with Kramer in a heartbeat.
PS: I have absolutely NO affiliation with him or his Company and do not see one red cent from him so I am only passing this along strictly because it is the BEST I've ever had - period. I'm sure there are other Makers out there producing similar and excellent product lines, however I have never found any personally and after finding Kramer I stopped looking
