Description
Galco’s original VHS™ (Vertical Holster System) was field-proven across the globe from Afghanistan to America. Thousands were used by US military personnel fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan. Countless others are in use by US and international law enforcement, being particularly popular among police helicopter pilots. The VHS also provides an alternative for those who want the concealment of Galco’s Miami Classic but prefer the traditional vertical carry style.
Now, after over a decade of experience with the VHS, Galco has improved it further. The VHS 4.0™ brings a reshaping/redesign of the harness straps, replacement of harness screws with a key-hole harness fastener attachment, and the addition of an innovative new tie-down system.
A key component of the VHS 4.0 shoulder system is its spider harness. All four points of the spider harness can pivot independently and are connected by our clover-shaped, trademarked Flexalon™ swivel back plate. This, along with our patented swivel connectors, results in a perfect fit and lasting comfort for virtually all body sizes and shapes.
The 2.5" wide harness straps on the VHS 4.0 have been recontoured to enhance both comfort and concealment. The VHS 4.0 also features Galco’s improved key-hole harness fastener system that replaces the earlier screw-and-post system, resulting in greater security, ease of assembly, and greatly reduced chance of fastener loss.
The VHS 4.0 also introduces a new tie-down system that is simple to use, compact and concealable, and fully ambidextrous.
The VHS 4.0 comes complete with vertical holster, harness, ammo carrier, tie-downs and a set of harness fasteners. Fully modular, optional accessories and components for the VHS 4.0 may be purchased separately.
Whether you patrol metropolitan America on the ground or from the air, exercise your Second Amendment right to bear arms, or stalk the hunting fields of the world, the VHS 4.0 will help you and your handgun stay secure in an often-dangerous world.
The ambidextrous VHS 4.0 is made for autos and revolvers and is available in tan or black finish.

Customer Reviews
GALCO RESPONSE
Thank you for the good review, Dennis!
We ship our shoulder systems unassembled for a few reasons:
1. We can make the packaging flatter and more compact, which both reduces shipping costs and makes for easier display by dealers.
2. Leaving the system assembled in the package for days/weeks/months (depending on how long it's in our inventory, or a dealer's) will leave small marks/dents on the harness. These marks come from the harness being compressed by the swivel keepers and will be visible if/when the harness is slid within the swivel keepers during the user's adjustment process.
3. Assembling and fitting the shoulder system gives the user a familiarity with the design that he/she probably wouldn't otherwise achieve. This familiarity makes for a better "bond" between the gun carrier and the gear.
Hope this helps you understand our thinking, and thanks again for your purchase and review!
