I just received my 220R holster (bought on ebay) today. Super nice holster! Its in brown as specified. The stitching is really tight and looks very well done. The inside is very smooth. It fits my 226 (have not tried my 220 yet) perfectly. Fits my belt perfectly too.

I have paid much more for holsters of this quality. I think tonight I'll CCW my 220. That will be a first for me!

Ryan, got the mag pouch a couple of days ago. Very nice workmanship at a reasonable price.
Good luck and thanks,
Pat - Ohio
 
 
Ryan i recived my P6 holster yesterday and wow fits like a glove. nice work. look forword to having you do some more work for me later on.
Cody - North Dakota
 
 
Good stuff, Ryan!
The P239 OWB you made for me is great -- now I've got to get a better belt.
I showed my brother the G23 holster this past week. He likes it, and he's bummed that I'm keeping it from him until Christmas!
Dan - Virginia
 
I received my holster and ammo pouch from Ryan today for my P226 9mm and P226 40 SW. The holster and ammo pouch fit everything just like a glove.
Thanks Ryan for the great product, price, and speedy delivery.  Great leather for a great price
Art - AR
 
Here is a pic of the custom light and mag pouch done for me. I have been carrying it all day today and it has been very comfortable and sturdy. Very solid communication often within minutes of emails and a very well made product.
Frank - Georgia
 

My P229R holster with matching double-mag leather was waiting for me when I got home today --
Awesome work. Thick, tough, tight leather with nice stitching and edge finishing. Smooth and even dye job. Nice details around the hammer & slide area.
This guy's about to get flooded with orders if he can keep up. I just ordered for two more guns.
Great work, Ryan.
Rich  - Louisiana

I wore the holster this morning in combination with a ............. belt.  I must say that this is the first time I have actually been able to carry a P220 sized ccw and be comfortable.  The ride height is perfect and the weapon holds close to my body and concealed fine under a t-shirt.  Great work...Thanks again.                               Dave - TN

Hey, I got the holsters in the mail today.  These are TOP-NOTCH!!  I am 100% satisfied.  These are, without question, a FAR greater value than any commercially produced holster I've ever purchased.  The only other holsters I own that even come close are my ........ holsters, and these are far prettier and were half the price!  You do excellent work my friend, and I will be passing your name along.  Oh, and the standard clips for the IWB holster are perfect.  The snap onto my belt like a glove.                                                       Brock - IN

Now that I've had the holster and been wearing it for a little while my opinion hasn't changed a bit.  This is my nicest, best-made, holster that I own.  If I had the funds I would be ordering three or four more right now for other hand guns that I carry.                  Barres - Texas

I received my holster and mag pouch for the SIG P225 today.  Outstanding quality and craftsmanship.  I've worn out quite a few quality leather rigs from custom holster makers in my lifetime.  I have to admit, I'm not sure I'm going to be able to wear out one of Ryan's due to the extreme sturdiness.  Ryan is a true artisan.  Purchase with confidence, Fellas.                                                                                Dan - PA

Hey, just got the holster.  Is gorgeous.  You did a fine job with it and yeah its a little tight but for me it seems more secure.  I appreciate the .... out of the speedy turn around matched with this level of workmanship I'll be in touch for other weapons in the future.                                                                           Thanks again.                                                                   Grant - TN

Having been a user of many quality holsters from several makers over the years, I was looking forward to receiving my first holster from your shop.  The quality, fit, and finish is much appreciated.  Thanks, again!                                                                     John - Indiana

Got the holsters today, I can't believe USPS is that fast!  My 18 year son (who is anal-retentive like his dad) and I absolutely love the holsters!  Better quality leather and leatherwork than any off-the-shelf holster we've ever looked at.                                        Thanks,                                                                                  JC - AZ

Ryan - I got the holster today.  Very nice.  It fits much closer than my ********* *****.  Sits a little higher which helps conceal with a shorter shirt.  I like the little extra flap that keeps the metal off my waist at the back of the slide and beavertail.  It's going to take a little breaking in to get the gun out smoothly, but I'm patient.  I'll just keep it holstered when it is off my belt as your website suggests.                                                                                Paul - Las Vegas, NV

I bought a Countryboy for my new HK 45c two weeks ago and loved it for the quality of materials, craftsmanship and fit, so I got one for my S&W 686 3" which is just as nice.  Great work - great value and Ryan is a good person to do business with.  I'll be ordering more, and telling my shooting friends about Ryan's work.                              Don D. - Pennsylvania

I received the holster yesterday. Great quality and excellent workmanship.                                                                         Tim - Denver, CO

You sir are an artist, this has to be the finest gun leather I have ever owned.                                                                             Thank You.                                                                            Michael - Ohio

Hey Ryan - just received the holster and it's beautiful ! (and snug) 

Thanks for the  nice work!                                                          Bruce - Raleigh, NC   

  

The holster came in yesterday and it is perfect!  I couldn't be happier with it.  Many thanks for an excellent product.
 Jimmy-Zephyrhills,FL                           

 

I received the holster today and it looks and fits the gun perfectly.
Very nice workmanship!  Thank you very much.

All the best,
Scott - Colorado

 

Ryan: The holster arrived on Saturday, and my wife took it out for its inaugural carry on Sunday.? Short version is that she loves it.? Again, great work and service.? I'm still breaking in the holster I ordered, but it's nearly there. Thanks. Thom - Colorado

 

Hey Ryan, I just wanted to update you on your fine holster that I had ordered for my 1911. This is a very nice holster and I am very pleased. While the 1911 is a heavy gun, your holster carries it quite comfortably. The comfort is on par with my Milt Sparks VM2 that I have for my P229 duty gun.

A very satisfied customer. Thank you, Cliff - NJ

 

Ryan,

Just received the Town & Country holster for the P229R. WOW! Very nice work
on the fit and finish. And extremely fast turnaround!

The gun and holster are now snuggled up in the safe for the night.

Thank you for all the accommodations with this order. I am quite pleased.


Bill - Tennessee

The holster arrived today. WOW!!
It is perfect for my P230s. The quality rivals the big names in the business. Do you work with exotic skins ?

I will definately being ordering from you SOON!!

Thanks again!!
Charles - Georgia

 

Ryan:   
I got my holster, today, a week earlier than you predicted.  It is perfect.  I own holsters by ******, *******, ***** and *** *******.  This outclasses them all by a long shot.
 
Since you had to order a mold, I think this is your first holster for a 7 shot S & W 386 Night Guard.  Keep making them that way.  The fit, the finish and the quality of the leather and stitching is superb.
 
I'll be back.  You'll make my holsters from now on.
 
Buddy - South Carolina

 

Ryan,
    I got the belt and holster today and i couldn't be happier.  What fine work!  I thought that i might be receiving the lighter tone but was pleasantly surprised to find exactly what I wanted! 
Thank you!
Tyler - North Carolina
 
 

Ryan,

Got my stuff today and it looks great.   Everything is perfect and I cant wait to start using it.    Now I just have to figure out what I want next and to start putting a little cash aside.

Thanks again and nice doing business with you.

John - Pennsylvania

 

Hi Ryan,
Just got my order - on my birthday no less! I love the way the color turned
out. If I could've picked the exact shade of brown I wanted, this would be
it. I'm breaking it in as I type this. Many thanks to you both for another
great holster and mag carrier.
All the best to your family,
Jeff & Kelline - California

 

Ryan,                                                                                 Got it today; it looks beautiful!  Fits like a glove, a nicely snug glove.  Am following your suggestions (FAQ) on breaking in, and am pleased as punch at this new acquisition.
 
Thanks for a superb holster and for supporting the troops!
Very respectfully,                                                                  Scott - Virginia



 

Ryan,

You did a great job on the two holsters I ordered!!! The Workin Man holster that you made for my Ruger SP101 is a work of art. It fits the gun nicely and the thumb break works superbly. The pocket holster you made for my Seecamp is great too.

I will be back to you for a couple more holsters that I need. You have the gift.. Keep up the great work.

Many thanks,
Rick - Massachusetts

 

Ryan,                                                                                     
     Just got home and found my holsters waiting for me at the door. They are simply outstanding! I didn't try the G19 gear because I don't have that gun with me right now, but the 1911 leather fits like a glove. It is sized perfectly, and I feel like I could use it tomorrow, no break in period needed. I will definitely be ordering more leather from you in the future. Please include more business cards with my BHP order, and I'll give them out to all my shooting buddies. 
 
Sincerely,

Jeremy - Nevada

 

 

Ryan,
Happy Halloween! Just dropping you a line to let you know that we received the holster today. My husband is elated! Your craftsmanship is impecable! He assures me that you've got his business hands down. Thank you for this great anniversary gift (you made me look like the best wife ever after 11 years :) )
Thanks,
Suzanne - New York

 

Ryan,

I received the holster yesterday.  I want to thank you for doing such great work, it's by far the nicest and most finely crafted holster I have seen.  Your turn around time is impressive especially considering the quality of the product.  I will surely recommend you and use you myself for any future needs.  Thanks again. 

Jon - Massachusetts

 

Ryan,
   I received the pocket holder for my j-frame a couple of days ago. This is the first holster ever for me to comfortably carry a j-frame in the pants pocket. The contour to the edges of it makes all the difference. The illusive search for the perfect pocket holster has ended. Great craftsmanship. Thanks.
 
Kevin - Florida
 
 
 
 Ryan,  My recent purchase of the"Southern Sidekick" holster has been one of the rare times (out of many holster purchases) that the holster is actually what I hoped it to be. And you were certainly correct about the single clip being very stable. It's nice to be pleased with a new holster for a change (after so many disappointments) Just thought I'd let you know how pleased I am with the holster & of your communication when I had questions. Thanks for all, Joe

 

 

Ryan, this Town & Country holster is great.

Perfect fit and finish. I had avoided molded holsters like this because I always felt they compromised concealability in regard to overall thickness. Your holster has put that mindset to rest.

I've always used stock IWB holsters from **** ****, such as the **** ***** and the ***** ********, as they were fairly cheap, and did what I wanted them to do as far as concealability is concerned, although the retention could be somewhat lacking, contingent on the type of pistol, as they are more of a one size fits various models type of product.

One day I was in the middle of an activity that involved jumping down from a very short drop, and the pistol actually came out of the holster and crashed to the concrete.

Needless to say, I started reconsidering my choice of carry rigs and started looking around for something that had a reputation of quality, wasn't ridiculously expensive, and didn't have a long turnaround time...while still offering the retention and concealability I was looking for.

Your holster has met those needs in spades, and is actually thinner overall than the non-molded holsters I've been using that utilize glove leather.

All that to say, I am more than pleased with your product and your service, and look forward to placing more orders to accommodate my other gear.

Take care and thanks again. I look forward to receiving the other items I currently have on order.

Ryan,

   I received the holster yesterday.  I cannot express how perfect it is.  As you mentioned previously, it does ride very high on my belt.  I got the chance to wear it for about 3 hours last night, during which time I practiced my draw stroke (unloaded of course).  I am wearing it just in front of my support side (left for me) hip, between the 1st and 2nd belt loops from the midline of my pants.  From this position, drawing with my weapon hand (right), in a crossdraw fashion is easily accomplished.  As a second option, which is what I was hoping to achieve, using my support hand (left again) to cavalry draw is excellent.  Both draw strokes are new to me, so I must practice much more, but I am in love.

  I showed the holster off to a good friend of mine and gave him one of the business cards you sent me.  Suffice it to say, he was very pleased with your work.

   In conclusion, I am thoroughly impressed and will definitely recommend you in the future.

   Thanks again.

Ryan,

I just received my "Southern Man", fits my XD9 subcompact like a glove and I love it.
The quality and workmanship is second to none. The leather color and finish is outstanding, I could not be any happier with your product.
 
The guys at the gun shop, all carry XD9, are so jealous of my holster. They all agreed they wished their IWB holsters extended up higher behind the pistol and had snaps instead of clips. I gave them your name and website address, so hopefully you'll see some more orders from North Carolina.
 
Thanks again for a great product,
 
Jeff - Huntersville, NC

 

 

Hi,

You made this so FAST, Thank You. Excellent craftsmanship, very nicely executed, perfect fit.  I wish my harness/saddle maker did work of this quality. Anyway I just wanted to let you know my order arrived safely and in perfect order.  I am pleased and will let my circle of friends know how to get thier own.

Thanks Again,

Tim

 

I don't mean to spam you by any means, but I must comment on the comfort of the holster. I have a number of holsters from different companies (*******, *** ****, ******** just to name a few), and the holster you made is by far the best rig I own when it comes to comfort of wearing. Once I get it on my belt (the slots are a little snug, but workable), it becomes a joy to wear. The holster stays put, holds the 386 tight against my body, and does not dig into my hip or side no matter my body position. This includes sitting as well as standing.

My hat is off to you, my friend. This might be my first RGrizzle custom holster - but it definitely won't be my last.

Thanks again!

Frank

 

 

Ryan & Kay,
 
I received my holster and wanted to thank you. The transaction was smooth and professional and the product is outstanding. It was a pleasure doing business with you and I'm glad that I now have one of your holsters. I'll be sure to spread the word about R Grizzle Leather!!!
 
Robert

 

 

Ryan,
 
     I received the holsters, double mag pouch and belt that you made for me. I was very impressed with your work! I have worn both holsters several times since receiving them. Very comfortable to wear and they both provide a very secure fit. I have used both on the range to draw from concealment and they present the weapon exactly as they should. Your belt has become my new favorite belt to wear. I wore the belt, mag pouches and Workin' Man holster to court last week and received several positive comments on the rig from coworkers. Your turn around time on this order was impressive. The Country Boy holster you made to fit my officer's model size Para Companion was perfect. I appreciate your willingness to add a new model of weapon just to acomodate my request. I saw that you have now added photos of Officer's Model holsters to your website. Hopefully they will produce business for you. I own and have worn much more expensive holsters from major name manufacturers. Your work was as good or better than any other holsters I have, but was offered at a "working cop" price. I enjoyed doing business with you and you have certainly earned a repeat customer! Please feel free to use me as a reference.
 
Thanks again,

Mark - Florida

 

Ryan,

  Just wanted to drop you a note, and let you know how happy I am
 with the holsters I ordered from you. I use all three of them for daily carry duties, as well as in IDPA matches. Everyone that I have shown them to has been impressed, and I know a few of my buddies have already ordered and received holsters from you. I just got hired as a Peace Officer here in NV, so I will be ordering some more gear for myself and the fiancé soon.

 Take care.

  Jeremy

 

Ryan,

I bought a CBJ with a vertical cant from you last November, or so.  I purchased it to wear support side, appendix carry with my J-frame.  I have worn it constantly in that position since buying it.  I wanted to let you know that I am still thoroughly happy with the holster.  It continues to wear very comfortably.  The few close friends I've shown it off to all agree that it is an excellent example of  quality craftsmanship.  Thanks again.

Ryan,
 
Just received the customized Southern Sidekicks I'd ordered for my PM9 and SP101...  incredible!  Terrific craftsmanship, it's a shame their hidden for IWB carry.  Keep up the great work and I'll be recommending you to others.
 
Thanks,
Dave from Temecula, CA

 

 

Ryan,
Got my holster today and really like this thing!
You have great quality here I can not wait to get it broke in a bit  and try it out.  I love it. Built very very well and am extremely pleased in your craftsman ship.  This is defiantly the highest quality holster I have ever owned. 
Thanks for the great work!
 
Phil  - SD 

 

 

 

Ryan-

   I received the holster today and I can’t tell you how thrilled I am. It’s a real beauty. I plan to take it to work tomorrow to show a few friends and I wouldn’t be surprised if you get an order or two as a result. I showed a buddy your website and he was interested in a pancake model; once he sees the awesome artisanship of your holsters first-hand, I think he’ll be ready to place an order.

   Again, the holster is simply awesome. Thank you so much. I may be in touch re: a holster for my 6-inch .357 revolver soon. I’d like something that hangs a bit lower than the typical concealed carry set-up; not quite the western rig style set-up, but not the “high carry” associated with typical concealed carry, either. Maybe somewhere in between. Do you have anything that would fit a S&W .357 that would hang down just a bit off a good belt? Just curious.

   Anyway, thanks again. I do love the work you did and will definitely share with my friends and colleagues. We have a private gun club and I intend to “show and tell” quite a bit.

   All the best,

                         -Mike

 

Hey Ryan,
I just recieved my CS  and mag pouch for my PPS on Saturday. Thanks for getting it to me so fast (4 weeks) ! I just want you to know Im verry pleased with the crafstmanship and design! I think this is my favorite holster Ive ever bought! (and I have several including an ******) I will definately be recommending your work and especially THIS holster! Great Work! Will keep you in mind for future holster needs for sure! Thanks Again, Daryl

 

 

Ryan,
 
Just wanted to say I received my City Slicker holster for my Glock 19 yesterday.  All I can say is how very pleased I am with it.  I would highly recommend your products to anyone.  I will definetly do business with you again.
 
Thanks,
 
Jeff

 

 

Mr. Grizzle,

I didn't have a chance to say thank you for the holster that you had made or my Sig P230. I am extremely impressed with your  product and your craftsmanship is exceptional.
I have purchased many handmade and custom holsters over the years from various manufactures, however, I must say your work is truly impressive, your turnaround time impeccable and for what it's worth you definitely deserve the accolades as well as my future business.
I am eager to show this rig off to the fellow members at my shooting club and tell them of my experience with you. Once again thank you very much for a great product and experience.

Sincerely,
 -Mike

 

Just arrived today. Thanks for meeting my request to receive it before I move at the end of April.
The holster is beautiful - I feel bad that I have to tuck it inside my
waistband! I would much prefer to be able to wear it out where folks
could see it.
You can be sure of receiving my future business.
Alan

 

Ryan,
I received my Country Boy and Double Mag Carrier today. You Sir are a very fine craftsman!  I can't wait to receive my City Slicker for my
PPS I ordered this past week!
I will be posting a few pics on Sigforum and will be sure to issue a
very positive review of your work, turn time and excellent customer
service!
Many Thanks for your quality work!
Troy

 

 

Ryan,

The holster is fantastic!  This is my first CC holster and I am thrilled I got it from you.  You will defiantly be making additional holsters for me in the future.  Thanks for all of your time and help through the process. 

Ryan

 

 

Ryan:

As most gear guys, I couldn't wait to receive my new holster and mag pouch from you after hearing great things about them on the forums.  I received my holster and pouch today for my Sig P220 and the quality and craftsmanship is amazing!  You have certainly earned a new customer and I will be passing the word along and showing it off to my partners on our Sheriff's Dept out here.  
 
Take care, 
Andrew

 

 

Ryan and Kay,

I just wanted to say "Thanks" for the super quick turn around on my new City Slicker. 2 weeks 6 days from the time I ordered it to its arrival on my doorstep. The holster looks great. Definately the nicest holster I have ever owned. (although 90% have been duty holsters which are pretty ugly) I must admit I am shocked at how comfortable the City Slicker makes IWB carry. I had a cheap ******* IWB for my S&W 642 and it was the most uncomfortable holster I have ever tried. I assumed all IWB would be as miserable. Wrong. This one lives up to the hype. I am glad I heard about you guys on Sig Forum. Hopefully, I can get a Country Boy for my 239 later this year. Thanks again.

Chris

 

 

Dear Ryan and Kay, I received the holsters for my SR9C and the pocket holster for my LCR today and they are absolutely Beautiful!  All three fit perfectly!
I'm very pleased with your skill and craftsmanship!
Thanks again,
 
Ray

I just received your belt, CitySlicker IWB holster for 1911 and 2 clip IWB mag carrier for 1911. Best work I've seen and I currently have 5 other holsters and belts. And the belt - am I glad my dad never had one of there when I was growing up. I was a wise *** country boy and he pulled his belt off every few months to whip me with it. This belt would have torn me up it's made so well, good and thick compared with all my other belts.

I've had the three items - with S&W 1911 and three full clips- on all day now. I use the City Slicker holster with P clips in a cross draw position  because in my Jeep, truck or car I am too slow pulling the gun if it's on strong side carry position. With the clips the forward cant of the holster can be leveled out for cross draw carry which I like.

Been carrying for 55 years now. Best quality leather I've seen. Thanks !!!
 

Hi Ryan:

  I received the holster from you in record time and have been meaning to write. I did speak to your wife on the phone though. I have carried a handgun almost everyday for almost 40 years, and most of that time it was a configuration of the model 1911.

  Your "Workin Man" holster carries this full size gun as well as any I have ever seen and better than many costing 5 times as much this is a well made holster made to be used.

   Get your orders in now I think this mans waiting list is going to get longer also he and his wife are the nicest people you could ever talk to and any questions left via email or phone are answered immediately.

  Ryan, you have gained a customer. Please feel free to print any part or all of this on your website etc.

Sir,

I was traveling last week, and so it was only this morning that I was able to pick up the holster that you so kindly made and sent to me.  I was able to try it today.  The very careful work is of very obviously high quality, and the materials are amazing.  Truly, I feel privileged to own this holster.  It will not be going into the box of "holsters I should have returned"!!

Thank you, for a wonderful holster, and your exemplary customer service.  I will be recommending your talented work to my friends!

Hi Ryan,

My Workin Man arrived today. Nice piece of gun leather. The quality of the leather & the workmanship far surpasses any of the generic holsters I've handled, even though the price isn't much different. It'll need broken in, but the gun fits well & I especially like the slide shield. I won't hesitate to recommend you to anyone wanting a top quality holster.

Thanks,
Lynn
 
 

 

 

Ryan 

The holster is all your web site says it is….and more!  Thanks for an outstanding product delivered is less time than promised.

Ya done good!

Know you are appreciated.

Blessings 

Tom  

PS:  The picture of the pancake holster in this months issue of Handgunner  is beautiful……

      Pretty good advertising – hope it results in additional business, your product warrants the exposure.

 

 

Ryan,
 
I received my SMR, and could not be happier.  I have been carrying concealed for over 20 years, as a civilian, NRA Instructor, and on assignment overseas for the U.S. Government.  The workmanship, attention to detail, fit, finish and comfort are superb.  My Novak Colt 1911 fits perfectly. 
 
Best Regards,

Bob
