1791 Gunleather PFC2.1CBRR Optic Ready Chest Brown Fits Glock 17 Right Hand

The 1791 Gunleather PFC2.1CBRR optic ready chest holster for Glock 17 right hand carry brings serious capability to hunters, tactical shooters, and serious sport shooters who need their sidearm accessible across rough terrain. Built from American leather in chest brown, this holster keeps your Glock 17 secure and ready whether you're glassing for game, running a stage at your local range, or staying mobile in the field. The optic-ready design accommodates modern red dot and reflex sights mounted to your slide, so your setup stays functional and uncompromised.

1791 Gunleather has spent decades refining leather working for shooters—the kind of gear that works as hard as you do. This chest holster sits high and close to your body, distributing weight naturally and keeping your pistol in position during movement. Right-hand carry gives you consistent access whether you're standing, kneeling, or working through obstacles. The chest-carry position works especially well for overlanders, backcountry hunters, and anyone who spends hours in a rig, pack, or on foot where hip holsters can shift or bind under a pack strap.

Leather holsters require real care—break-in time, conditioning, and attention to fit and retention—but once they're dialed in, they conform to your body and your gun in a way synthetic never quite does. If you're the type who values that traditional, proven approach and you're running a Glock 17 with a mounted optic, this is worth your consideration.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this holster work with my Glock 17 mounted with a red dot sight?

Yes. The PFC2.1CBRR is specifically designed as an optic-ready holster, meaning it accommodates slide-mounted red dot and reflex sights on your Glock 17 without interference.

Is this a right-hand or left-hand carry holster?

This is a right-hand carry holster, meaning it's designed for shooters who draw and fire with their right hand.

What kind of care does a 1791 leather holster require?

Leather holsters benefit from a break-in period and occasional conditioning to maintain suppleness and longevity. Clean and dry your holster regularly, and apply quality leather conditioner as needed—typically every few months depending on use and climate. Avoid prolonged water exposure and excessive heat.

Is this holster suitable for hunting or field use?

Yes. The chest carry position is popular among backcountry hunters and outdoor users because it keeps your sidearm stable and accessible during long days on foot or in a vehicle, without the shift and bind issues that can occur with hip holsters under a pack or heavy clothing.
