IMPORTANT: Holster Delivery Times

There are just too many handguns and too many holsters to keep in stock for immediate shipment. This applies both to us at Personal Defense Solutions and to most of the holster manufacturers we work with.

1. The average wait time (i.e., production time) for a Don Hume holster is 8 to 12 weeks. The demand is steadily increasing for Don Hume’s affordable, quality holsters, and their factory is working at capacity. Don Hume makes holsters for a lot of guns. They are well worth the wait. When you get yours, you will appreciate the fact that they are custom made for you. Patience will buy you a great holster.

2. The average wait time for a Gould & Goodrich holster is one to 4 weeks, depending on the gun and the holster. More common guns can get holstered more quickly with a G & G holster. G & G offers fewer models of concealment holsters for a much smaller range of handguns. However, their holsters are top notch and affordable.

3. The average wait time for a Kirkpatrick custom holster is 6 to 8 weeks. These holsters are custom-made to order.

4. The average wait time for a Kramer custom holster is 8 to 10 weeks. These holsters are custom-made to order.

5. We stock our own PDS line of pocket holsters and fanny packs. We can ship these promptly.
