Glockmeister

Richard N. Gallagher founded Galco International in 1969 as a small family business in Chicago. Known then as 'The Original Jackass Leather Company', Gallagher specialized in holsters constructed of horsehide. In 1980, the name of the company was changed to Galco International, and in 1983 the business was moved from Chicago to its present home in Phoenix. Already famous for high quality and innovative designs, the company gained worldwide notoriety when Don Johnson chose to wear the Jackass shoulder rig in the popular television series 'Miami Vice'. Now known as the Miami Classic, this shoulder rig continues to be the most famous, recognizable and imitated shoulder holster rig ever made. Not only does Galco continue to be the favorite choice of Hollywood's hottest stars, but most branches of the military, federal law enforcement and most local law enforcement agencies have put Galco holsters to work for them.
