Frequently Asked Questions:
What exactly is a "Texas Jockstrap" style holster layout? This is a traditional late-1800s frontier design shortcut where the holster pouch is stitched directly to a minimalist leather support backer loop that slips over the barrel and frame. It leaves the primary cylinder body largely exposed to reduce bulk, save weight, and allow for a lightning-fast, smooth clearing drag on draw.
Does this black leather holster require initial treatment or oiling? Hunter Company leather arrives pre-treated and oil-sealed right from the factory workshop. We recommend drawing your unloaded 6" Rough Rider a few dozen times initially to seat the leather to your specific sight blade height. Avoid over-saturating it with heavy liquid oils, as this can weaken the hand-molded structural retention.
Can I wear this holster on a regular everyday pants belt? Yes. The integrated rear belt loop block accommodates heavy duty leather belts up to 2 inches wide, making it just as easy to slip over a standard casual work belt as it is to loop onto a dedicated Western single-drop cartridge belt.
