GALCO
1880S Holster Strongside for Revolvers
The 1880s strongside holster is the Western holster for the single-action shooter on a working cowboy’s budget with a big sense of style: high-ride, in light full grain natural steerhide, with a hammer thong for retention.
GALCO has been at home in Phoenix, Arizona since 1983; according to the manufacturer, all Galco products are designed and hand crafted there. The family business was founded in Chicago in 1969.
- Western styling and high ride
The 1880s draws on American Western-film rigs of the 1950s and 1960s. This configuration is a high-ride strong-side holster, not a crossdraw holster.
- Full-grain leather and hammer retention
The holster is made from premium full-grain steerhide in Natural. GALCO describes the shade as a very light version of its traditional Tan. A hammer-thong retention strap secures the revolver.
- Belt sold separately
The holster fits belts up to 3 inches wide. A belt or additional crossdraw holster is not included. The separately offered 1880s cartridge belt has a darker center-cut leather body; that belt material does not describe the holster’s full-grain leather.
- Carry method
High-ride strongside holster for belts up to 3 inches wide.
Material and craftsmanship
Full grain premium steerhide in natural – according to GALCO a very light version of the traditional tan.

Notes
- Belt and crossdraw holster are not included.
- For the most harmonious overall look, we recommend choosing leather holsters and leather accessories from the same manufacturer in the same colour designation. Leather is a natural material; slight variations are possible even within one colour. Colour names such as brown, tan, cognac or natural are not standardised across manufacturers.
- For leather care we recommend the GALCO Leather Cleaner & Conditioner.
* Firearms, optics, magazines, ammunition and accessories shown are not included unless expressly stated. The selected article variant applies.
