ABSTRACT:
A shoulder holster employing an over-the-shoulder strap which includes a broadened support area and a narrower holster engaging portion at each end. The holster body is made up of a single or multiple piece assembly defining a holster pocket and including elongated upwardly extending support arms at an acute angle to provide two directional supports to the holster body. The upwardly extending portions of the holster include a plurality of transverse slots having a width approximating the width of the elongated support portion of the shoulder strap. The elongated portions of the shoulder strap are interleaved or woven in and out of the slots of the upwardly extending support portions of the holster. The end of the shoulder straps extend beyond the last transverse slot in the holster whereby a precise adjustment of the elevation of the holster, both front and rear, may be accomplished by the position of engagement of the shoulder strap with the multiple slots. Continuous adjustment is available but the surface friction between the shoulder strap and the support portion of the holster along with frictional engagement between the shoulder strap in the slot provides a firm, unmoving support for the holster when it is once adjusted. The shoulder strap and holster support portion provide no more than two thicknesses of leather for improved concealment as compared with the prior art.
