Default Looking for an Upside Down Shoulder Rig

I’m a lefty looking for an old style upside down shoulder rig for a J frame. Anybody know of a good company? My EDC is a 340PD and I have a Model 60 two inch.

You might want to take a look at K L Null holsters.there is a reason he has been in business so long.

C. Rusty Sherrick makes a horsehide version of a Berns Martin triple draw, which is an upside down shoulder rig. I have an old Berns Martin I use to carry my M40 in but I found it used at a gun show years ago.

Regards, Porkie

Nevada Gun Leather makes good ones. My 38, 60, and 637 all fit it well.

If you can find an old bianchi 9R for your J frame it’s an option. I bought one for my 2 1/2 inch 19 in the late 70’s. Still have it and my 2 1/2” 66 rides in it now.

I’ve seen them listed in various sites. Folks that have them are pretty proud of them on prices. No longer in production and hard to come by. They did make them for the J frame.

Another vote for the Bianchi 9R. I have them for both J (2-inch) and K frames (2.5-inch). Quite comfortable. I can jam a 3-inch K into the larger leather, but don't fully trust it to stay there. Try ebay.

Alessi made upside-down J-frame shoulder holsters, too. I don't believe they're made anymore, but you may be able to find a used one somewhere.

Default Remora DID have them.....

...and I have one that if I remember it is adjustable for position. But I don't see them on their site any more.

Here is my Bianchi 9R with Colt's Agent. You can generally find them
on the auction sites. Ken Null is a good suggestion also. He has a list
of ready made holster on his site now. You might check it.
