1791 Gunleather Fair Chase Whitetail Deer Hide Holster

The 1791 Gunleather Fair Chase holster is a handcrafted concealed-carry holster made from wild, ethically hunted Whitetail deer hide, available in Size 0 and Size 2 to fit a wide range of compact and subcompact firearms. The open-top, multi-fit design is built for everyday concealed carry where comfort and low profile matter most.

Handcrafted From Ethically Sourced Deer Hide

The Fair Chase holster is made from Whitetail deer hide sourced under a strict ethical standard: every deer must be taken with a single shot from a rifle or a single arrow from a bow. That sourcing standard is not a marketing claim but an operational directive 1791 Gunleather places on every hide used in this line. The result is a natural leather that conforms closely to the body, reducing printing and improving all-day wearability compared to stiffer synthetic or vegetable-tanned alternatives.

Built for Comfortable, Secure Concealed Carry

The holster includes a steel clip beveled specifically to distribute pressure evenly against the waistband, reducing hot spots during extended wear. Reinforced stitching runs throughout the construction to maintain retention geometry and structural integrity over time. The open-top design allows a clean, unobstructed draw without a retention strap to clear, supporting the carry styles most common-carry users prefer.

Multi-Fit Design Across Two Sizes

Rather than fitting a single firearm model, the Fair Chase holster is handcrafted to accommodate a range of firearms within each size. Size 0 covers compact and subcompact pistols including several Beretta, Colt, Kahr, Kimber, Ruger, Smith and Wesson, and Sig Sauer models. Size 2 covers J-frame revolvers and comparable small-frame revolvers from Colt, Rossi, Ruger, Smith and Wesson, and Taurus. Neither size is optic-ready. Both variants are right-hand draw and finished in brown.

Who This Is For and Isn't

This holster suits concealed-carry users who prioritize all-day comfort and low-profile wearability with a compact pistol or small-frame revolver. It is a strong fit for everyday carry in an inside-the-waistband or similar close-body carry position where a soft, form-fitting material reduces discomfort over long wear periods. Buyers who want a handcrafted, natural-material holster backed by a lifetime warranty will find this construction approach well matched to that preference.

This holster is not optic-ready in either size and will not accommodate pistols or revolvers with mounted optics. It is available only in right-hand draw and only in brown. Firearms not listed in the compatibility table for Size 0 or Size 2 are not confirmed fits. The open-top design provides no active retention device, so it is not suited for duty or retention-critical applications where a Level II or higher retention system is required.

The hide is sourced from wild, ethically hunted deer rather than farmed or commercially processed stock.

The Bulletproof Zone Promise

When you buy body armor, you're buying your safety. We don't take that lightly. Here's what every order from Bulletproof Zone includes.

1. Authorized dealer of every brand we carry

Every plate, vest, and carrier we ship comes from the manufacturer directly to our warehouse. We don't sell gray-market product, surplus, or returns. That means factory-fresh stock, the full manufacturer warranty, and real after-sale support — the kind only an authorized dealer can offer.

We maintain authorized-dealer relationships with America's leading body armor brands, including Spartan Armor Systems, AR500 Armor, RMA Defense, Shellback Tactical, Caliber Armor, DFNDR Armor, Protection Group Denmark, BulletSafe, BulletBlocker, and over 40 more.

2. Best price, guaranteed

If you find a lower price at another authorized dealer of the same product within six months of your purchase, we'll refund the difference.

Why the "authorized dealer" requirement? Because gray-market and surplus armor may not be genuine, may have a compromised supply chain, and almost never comes with a manufacturer warranty. We won't price-match against products that may not actually protect you.

3. Free fitment consultation

Body armor only protects you if it fits. Email us a photo and your measurements before you order, and one of our specialists will help you size your carrier and plates correctly — at no charge, no obligation.

4. Trusted by thousands of customers

Bulletproof Zone has been a trusted authorized dealer of America's leading body armor manufacturers for over five years. We have over 4,000 verified Trustpilot reviews from real customers across all 50 states.

Price Match Guarantee — Terms

  • You must have purchased the item from our website before requesting the price match.
  • Discounted items and "free with purchase" items are not eligible.
  • The item must be in stock on the competitor's website at the time of your request.
  • The price match is valid for six months from the date of your purchase.
  • The competitor must be an authorized dealer of the product. Auction sites (eBay, Overstock), discounters, and gray-market resellers do not qualify.
  • The competitor must operate an online store. Brick-and-mortar-only retailers do not qualify.
  • Price match applies to the item price plus shipping. Sales tax is excluded.

To request a price match, email us a link to the product on our site and the same product on the competitor's site within six months of purchase. We'll process the refund.
