If you are looking for good leather or something other than Uncle Mike's, Collectors in SW Houston has the best selection with which I'm familiar.
it's socially unacceptable to be ahead of your time.

There is a custom place in Houston that I bought from. Tucker Gun leather. About same price as max-produced - but way better quality. Why not buy local to top it off!

Last time I was there, Shooters Station west of Conroe on 105 had a good selection of Tucker and other holsters.
Also, last tiime I was at Tuckers, he didn't maintain an inventory to sell.
We have a forum member who has a store very close to Tucker who stocks his goods, but I can't recall his name. Robert? Edge something?

Though not on the north side, Fountain Firearms has a good selection of various brands. They are at Hwy 6 and Bissonnet - that's about halfway between I-10 and US-59.

Re: Holster shopping on Saturday. Where's a good place to go?
THe last time I was at Shooters Station (about a week or so ago), they didn't have nearly the selection of Tucker's products that they used to, unfortunately. Also, the last time I tried to drop by Operators Edge, it wasn't there. I do not know if it moved or if it closed down.Mike1951 wrote:Last time I was there, Shooters Station west of Conroe on 105 had a good selection of Tucker and other holsters.

It's not North Houston, but Champion Firearms in College Station has a good selection of Galco leather (and Comp-Tac Kydex). Not actually being in the Houston Metroplex, I can't really help any more than that. Good luck finding some gunleather that you can walk out with rather than having to order it.
Remember, in a life-or-death situation, when seconds count, the police are only minutes away.

There is a gun show at the Pasadena Convention Center this weekend, so that's an option, though the last time I was there, they had a limited selection of holsters. I haven't found a large selection anywhere in town, and being left-handed, find nearly none that I can use. Carter's Country has a lot of Bianchi holsters and some others, all right-handed.

Operators Edge is now in the north, on I-45 near Rayford. It is in a little strip mall on the east side of I-45, north of Rayford.
