Galco shoulder holster number fitment?

Becket · Mar 6, 2020

I need any info on which pistols fit a black Galco shoulder holster. No searching by holster numbers on Galco page or optics planet, etc.; Holster itself is a horizontal with 2 mag holder; holster number 2068. I believe it is a Miami Classic or Classic II?
Have a bunch of diff ones I bought from an estate and that is one of the numbers is eluding me, thanks

The rig appears to be the Miami Classic in black.

The holster looks like it was made for a Beretta, but it could be the small, Beretta 84 and not the 92. What numbers do you see on the back of the magazine pouch?

The word fitment is an Architectural term meaning
a " Fixed item of furniture or equipment especially in a house or ship ."

Built in cabinets , bookshelves and equiptment such as boilers , & water heaters are fitment.

I don't know why these things are called "fitment" it never sounded quite right to me and I'm by trade an Architect .
I guess the words meaning will slowly change into something that sounds like what it says .

It's not actually a 2068, it's 206B for black.
Your holster appears to be a Miami Classic II (from the wider shoulder straps than the original Miami Classic) and it's made to fit the Beretta Model 84 and 85 pistols. Nice Rig!

And the term "furniture" on a firearm classically has referred to various metal bits. Not wood and not the stock. However, that ship has now sailed.

Jammin’ thanks all! Galco is bad about not being able to search by number, just style and the style number; not what it fits. Galco, if you wait the 40min it takes them to answer, will tell you about a particular number, but admits there is no list available online for all the different ones. That leaves me trying to figure out the literally 2-rack closet full of mainly new shoulder holsters I got there, a majority of which are Galco. Makes my haid hoit, lol!

Unfortunately, Galco had a habit of changing model numbers and then they lost a lot of information about the older products in a fire. The old numbering system was a nightmare. A Galco "150 LG FR" holster marking meant very little unless you knew exactly what pistol it was intended to carry.
