Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Handguns color preference for your gun leather?

I have brown and black for my most oft carried piece, a somewhat customized now RIA 10mm. Reason being, I want the color that blends in with my carry clothes that day i.e. if my cover shirt or jacket rides up a bit or gets windblown a little a color matching my clothing is, i think, a little less likely to be glaring out at everyone. I wear a lot of black Wranglers and Black double front, padded knees Carhart pants with black or grey T-shirts so often have a black belt and boots and gunleather at the same time. Everything just kinda blends together that way.

The only holster I have for my 329PD, as it is mostly a mountain fishing, big game hunting back up and trails gun, is plain brown. Outdoors I will be wearing brown, tan or camo a lot.

Have to say here that I find myself choosing the 329PD for carry more oft than I originally thought I would due to its wonderful light weight. Going to have to get some better sights on that bad boy soon. And a black holster.

All of my carry and outdoors wear holsters are pancake style outside the waistband and snug to the hip style.

My P3AT 380 does not have, or need, a holster

safariman, sounds pretty nice set up.

Im looking at Milt Sparks 55BN for my 1911, & 200Aw for ruger redhawk. Both handguns are stainless.

Will also order 1.5" belt from them too. Probably everything in black.

well if you are buying leather for a glock, i guess it would have to be stained "pink".

since i am old school, meaning before the day of the semiauto, most of my holsters are bianchi, or galco, and in brown. I think i have only one or two in black, and don't ever remember buying one in that color.
But since i have a few striker fired polymer semiauto's i like a lot these days the sherpa blackhawk systems, which are black.

To match their underwear?

Not too picky here. Ringler belt and slide with a Leahy holtser carrying an old 475 Linebaugh.

The old standby russet tan is so boring I don't even offer it. Which is fine, because I haven't had any requests for it. Far and away, the most popular color has been oxblood.



Antique brown is also a beautiful finish.
