Front Pocket Holster

information, details and purchase

Bear Creek Front Pocket Holsters are excellent for conceal carry. They are designed to keep your firearm in an upright position in your front pocket. They can be used for primary or back up firearms. Many individuals like them because you can have your hand on your weapon while keeping it concealed in your pocket. You can use the thumb push off at the top of the holster or use the fingers below the grip to push on the tab portion of the holster. Either method allows you to remove the firearm from the holster as it is withdrawn from the pocket.

Bear Creek Holsters Information

For a small gun, we charge $65 for a front pocket holster (view order form). You get a very nice front pocket holster that is 100% sewn, and no additional charge to sew your holster. It has a thumb push off sewn onto the holster to help with drawing the gun. We spend a little more time stamping the holster to give it some character that also makes it look better in our opinion. The holster is molded specifically to your gun and not a pouch that might accept numerous guns. The molding will give your holster some retention, but will allow you to draw the gun easily at the same time.

When drawing the gun from your front pocket, you can hit the thumb push off as your grip the gun. Then we suggest drawing backwards slightly towards your rear end. The tab portion of the holster will catch on the corner of your pocket and the gun will come out, while the holster stays in your pocket. You can safely keep your finger indexed along the side of the gun as you draw. Practice drawing with an UNLOADED gun. Also, do not attempt to re-holster the gun while the holster is in the pocket. Take the holster out and safely put the gun back in the holster. When using for concealed carry you are likely only going to need to pull the gun in a self defense situation, and not drawing the gun numerous times.

Bear Creek Holsters are also designed to cover the trigger of the firearm as an added safety precaution. We believe uncovered triggers of any firearm while in your pocket, or anywhere on your person, will increase the odds of a negligent discharge. Do not have other objects in your pocket with the holstered gun!

You are encouraged to communicate with us on your individual needs. Not all pockets are made alike. What might work well in a pair of jeans, may not work well in a pair of cargo pants. Your holster can be made to fit your specific needs.

Important Notice-Please Read Prior to Using Bear Creek Metal Works, Inc.

These warnings should be read prior to the use or purchase of Bear Creek Metal Works, Inc. products. All firearms are potentially dangerous weapons. Firearms should be kept out of the reach of children. Use of a handgun under any conditions may be dangerous. Serious personal injury or even death could occur without proper training in the safe handling of firearms by an accredited firearms safety course. No person should handle any firearm unless such person has successfully passed an accredited firearms safety program. Great care should be used when handling, storing or transporting firearms or when placing or removing a handgun from your Bear Creek Metal Works, Inc. holster. We strongly recommend a regular practice routine, with an unloaded firearm, be utilized to assure the continued capabilities of both product and user.

Never place a loaded handgun in a holster without first testing, in an unloaded condition (double-check to make sure the chamber is empty), for proper fit with the handgun. Bear Creek Metal Works, Inc. holsters are designed to fit factory equipped handguns. The use of trigger shoes or grip adapters or any modifications to the handgun may cause improper holster fit and accidental discharge. All Bear Creek Metal Works, Inc. holsters are designed and are made for specific handguns. DO NOT ALTER YOUR BEAR CREEK METAL WORKS, INC. HOLSTER IN ANY WAY, INCLUDING ANY SAFETY DEVICE INCORPORATED IN ANY BEAR CREEK METAL WORKS, INC. PRODUCT TO ACCOMMODATE HANDGUNS OR OTHER EQUIPMENT FOR WHICH THE BEAR CREEK METAL WORKS, INC. PRODUCT WAS NOT DESIGNED OR INTENDED.

Holsters are made to fit for specific handguns. However, continual changes will occur due to the number of handgun makes and models available on the market. Bear Creek Metal Works, Inc. will not be responsible for typographical and other human errors that can and do occur. It is the user’s responsibility to personally check for holster handgun compatibility using actual products. It is also the user’s responsibility to regularly check the holster and its hardware for proper fit and function. Although Bear Creek Metal Works, Inc. attempts to fit the most current model handguns, manufacturers of handguns constantly update their product specifications. Slight manufacturing changes in a handgun model can affect the proper and safe fit of your handgun and holster. Bear Creek Metal Works, Inc. will not be responsible for such changes or for typographical or other human errors, which can and do occur despite diligent efforts. Should any Bear Creek Metal Works, Inc. product become worn, loose, broken, defective or ill-fitting, or if in your opinion is unsafe, cease use immediately.

Carrying any handgun with a live cartridge in the chamber immediately in front of the firing pin may cause an accidental discharge. Single action revolvers and some semi-automatic pistols should be carried with the hammer or firing pin resting on an empty chamber. Bear Creek Metal Works, Inc. holsters that are “open top” (no safety strap and no thumbreak) are designed to carry in all safe “conditions of carry” as specified by the firearm manufacturer.

It is the user’s responsibility to exercise extreme caution when handling or carrying any handgun and to assume at all times that the gun is loaded. Do not attempt to cock a handgun while it is in the holster. Cocking the handgun while holstered can cause damage to the holster, gun, or both and may cause an accidental discharge. For information on how to safely carry your particular handgun, please refer to your handgun manufacturer’s safety and instruction manual.

You must be certain that your gun is securely seated in the holster each time you holster your firearm before removing your hand from the grip. Firearms must snugly fit in holsters to guard against accidental loss of the handgun. However, a snug fit may cause the slide to go out of battery when holstering. Therefore, you should always place your thumb on the back of the slide to insure that the slide does not go out of battery while holstering. Never place your hand in front of the firearm barrel while trying to holster or un-holster your firearm.

Keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to shoot. Keep fingers off the trigger and out of the trigger guard when drawing or replacing the handgun in the holster. This is where a good practice routine, with an unloaded firearm, is essential.

Always make sure your gun is fully seated in the holster. During vigorous physical activity, including running, you should not rely on your holster’s retention capabilities; the gun should be held in place with your hand to prevent the gun from falling out of the holster.

Claims for returns or exchanges must be made within ten days of receiving the product. No returns will be accepted without prior authorization from Bear Creek Metal Works, Inc. Return shipping is at the buyers expense and item(s) may be subject to a 20% restocking charge, any refunds will not include shipping and handling.
