Galco has announced a model of its FLETCH belt holster for the new Ruger-57 pistol. One of Galco's most recognizable belt-holsters, its forward-molded, two-piece construction is contoured on the body side to the natural curve of the human hip, keeping all molding on the front of the holster. This makes for more comfortable carry, and a narrower, more concealable profile than an ordinary pancake holster.

Crafted from premium steerhide, the FLETCH is handmolded with a reinforced thumb-break strap for extra retention, and a forward cant for increased concealability and accessibility. Finally, the holster is available in black or tan, with twin slots fitting belts up to 1.75-inches wide. For more information, please visit galcogunleather.comMSRP: $134

Review: Winchester 400 Legend

Winchester’s new 400 Legend is a streamlined, mid-sized straight-wall cartridge intended to fill the gap between its wildly popular 350 Legend and the notorious 450 Bushmaster. It is—in our opinion—a masterstroke of genius.
