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.

Review for VHS 4.0 (VERTICAL HOLSTER SYSTEM AUTOS)
(5.0 out of 5)
P226
I've carried virtually every way there is. IWB, OWB, AIWB. For me, all these sucked. I have only had my shoulder holster for about 2 weeks. But I can say, my shoulder holster seems to be what I've needed for so long. I definitely carry more often due to the comfort of this thing. I love the concealabity of this holster! Even with my P226, I just print a tad around the mag well. I wish there was a way to push the grip closer to my ribs. The leather and craftsmanship is top shelf. As they say, there are no perfect answers for concealabity, just trade-offs. But this thing comes damn close to perfect.

Motorcycle Rider With 1911 Loves It
Never carried or had my gun in the backpack when heading out to the range. This holster is so smooth even with a leather jacket and backpack over! At the range I notice I’m pulling out, and putting away before other shooters. My 1911 isn’t even notice when riding my main vehicle a motorcycle around.

Awesome Holster
I'm a 300 lbs man and nothing else works for me. After wearing all day, no issues, wearing without tie down straps, since I wear overalls, if bending over gun swings out a bit, but nothing major.
