This is his model Georgia Snap 2, Right Hand, Mahogany, Sig P226 Legion. OWB









This is my 3rd RGRIZZLE holster, and his quality is unmatched. IMO, his prices are very reasonable for the quality you will get.

Ryan's holsters always arrive very stiff and VERY tight, requiring you to perform the break-in.

Here are his instructions for break-in

The first thing you should do is check the fit of your holster with your unloaded handgun. The holster will probably be tight at first but this is normal. I recommend breaking it in around the house before using it for carry. With your unloaded handgun you can practice drawing and re-holstering to help with break in. You may also place your unloaded handgun in the holster and simply leave it for a few hours.

In some cases, if the holster is extremely tight, you can use the bag the holster came in or a similar style storage bag to help with break in. The bags we ship the holster to you in are 4 mil. and thicker than the standard plastic storage bag therefore these will probably work best. Carefully insert your unloaded handgun into the corner of the bag and then insert the bagged handgun into the holster. It may take anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours but this should stretch the holster a few thousandths of an inch. Periodically check it until the fit and draw feels right to you without the bag.

The holster will also break in to your body and the handgun naturally as you wear and use it.

Please do not put any type of chemical, conditioner, etc. onto the holster to help with break in. Do not crush or flex the holster in trying to break it in as this can cause the holster to loose its shape and ruin it.



I used the bag break-in overnight, and it worked great. The gun is still a bit tight but not overly so. At this time, with a brand new holster, I wouldn't want it any looser.

Also, the belt loops are extremely tight when using my 1/4" thk 1.5" width leather belt. Again, with a brand new holster, I wouldn't want it any other way.

Now my 226 SSE and 220 Carry SSE, have a sibling.

After getting my 229 Legion, my first gun, nearly two years ago I lost my job. It's time now to get a good holster. The GS2 looks great but so does Tuckers HF1.
Does anyone have experience of both?
I know the HF1 has slots instead of loops but it has the option of a cowhide lining.
Whatever I get I will have to live with.

Thanks.

After nearly 40 years I learned that snap holsters are to me the best option for OWB carry. Easy on/easy off and I've always been drawn to leather holsters anyway. I have seven I think, by various makers. MTR, Blackhawk, Galco, and Beretta, all quality holsters and extremely comfortable. some have a thumbstrap so do not.

I've never heard of RGrizzle but I will be checking them out. I particularly like the enclosed bottom, to protect the muzzle. That's a fine looking rig you have there.

Ryan Grizzle

I think you should ask Ryan for some referral money:p
Yep, he sold me one of these after I saw your pics. Nice folks to deal with, and very patient considering the amount of things that I threw at him. Thanks for putting the pics out. They sold the deal.
