Looking forward to your review!

Me too.  Sure does look nice!
Gun Control?  Oh yes, the theory that becoming a victim is somehow morally superior to defending yourself & your family.  Makes perfect sense.

I haven't had to opportunity, (need) to really use it yet. I have carried in it about 6-8 times and so far I LOVE IT! In aug I'll be heading north on our yearly rides and I'll be packing the 20 in this rig.

Ordered a new Diamond D Custom Leather "Guides Choice w/Mag pouch today.  Appears to be what I've been looking for to use when hunting/fishing.
Should work great with my Glock 20 & 21.

Wow.  :o
Ordered 6/19/14. Guy said they had one made. Shipped 6/20, received this morning, 6/23. Shipped on Friday, received before 10:00 AM on Monday, Alaska - Virginia.
It takes longer to send a note to the next town here in VA. I can't believe the USPS did anything this fast (Priority Mail).

Quality of holster appears outstanding. Very comfortable. Perfect fit and no defects. Will report after using it in the field for a month or so.

I have a Simply Rugged Chesty Puller Harness, it takes any of Rob's Sourdough Pancake holsters for revolvers & also the matching style holster for autos, don't remember the name of that line without looking it up ....  :-\  FWIW, I've never owned one for the autos, but have carried everything from a 6" N Frame to a 3" GP100 in the rig and really like it. It was designed for fishing in Bear Country, to carry a large bore revolver inside waders. 

Anywho, when I traded into my Gen 2 Glock in November, I didn't have time to order a Simply Rugged holster before I left for an Elk Hunt in Wyoming on the 30th.  So, I fabbed a Kydex in Hunter Orange based on the Sourdough Pancake design.  It works so well I haven't bothered to order a Simply Rugged holster for the G20.   I didn't have the time to put a mag pouch together so I used a single pouch from Wilderness Tactical, the makers of The Instructor Belt, in Arizona that I already had. Again, it has worked so well that I haven't got back to the Kydex fabbing yet ....  ;D

I really like the setup and it is easy to change out holsters if I want to carry a revolver.  I carry it several times a week on my back country trips.

Cwlongshot....

I'm trying to decide WHICH pistol I want a Guides Choice for...

G20SF w/ FF3 (eventually a/ 6" KKM) 10mm
Fusion Hunter 6" 1911 10mm
Ruger SBH Bisley Hunter 7.5" bbl .44M

I know I want a Diamond holster .... but I can only afford one ANYTIME soon.

Suggestions, anyone? (Leaning towards the Ruger or Fusion due to weight).

I'm thinking of getting a Guides Choice holster for my Kimber and was wondering if anybody uses one while bowhunting and if it interferes with the string.
Thanks,Billy

Now that you mention it!   I know someone who makes a holster similar to the one David Johnston of Diamond D makes ..... me!   :D


Here's mine ... at a better price point and more affordable.

Nice holster Panther Creek and a great price I think I'm going to have to try one. I going to sell the Kimber and go back to my glock so as soon as it sells I will order one.

I saw the Panther Creek mentioned on another forum......they do look enticing.

Do the PC chest holsters have mag pouches too?
Some days it's just good to be lucky; rather than just good looking!
