Galco JR212B Jackass Rig Shoulder Holster System for 1911, Right Hand, Black Leather, Fits Chest Up to 56"

The Galco JR212B Jackass Rig is a classic shoulder holster system built for shooters who want a comfortable, concealable carry option for their 1911. If you're looking for a 1911 shoulder holster that distributes weight across your torso and keeps your handgun accessible without a belt, this right-hand leather rig deserves a close look. The Jackass Rig has been around for decades because it works: it's practical for truck driving, field work, outdoor pursuits, or anyone who spends long hours in a vehicle or on their feet.

Built from black leather and sized to fit chests up to 56 inches, the JR212B uses a harness system that spreads the load across your shoulders and back rather than relying on a single strap or belt attachment. This design reduces fatigue during extended wear and keeps your 1911 stable whether you're seated, standing, or moving through brush. The right-hand configuration positions the holster for a natural cross-draw or standard shoulder carry, depending on how you set it up.

Galco has a solid reputation for functional leather gear that softens and forms to your body over time. The Jackass Rig isn't flashy or tacticool—it's a workhorse holster made for people who need reliable carry in real conditions. Whether you're an old-school revolver guy who shoots 1911s, or you just prefer shoulder carry over belt holsters, this rig delivers the comfort and accessibility that made it a favorite among hunters, outdoorsmen, and serious shooters for generations.
