Initially introduced in 2003, Galco Gunleather’s fast-selling Side Snap Scabbard has been improved and updated with a reinforced mouth for easy one-handed reholstering.

Constructed of premium steerhide, the open-top SSS retains the quick on-off snap loops that fit belts up to 1½ inches and now features a slight butt-forward cant. It still has adjustable tension and adds a raised sweat guard to protect both the firearm and the wearer.

The improved SSS is offered for right- or left-hand draw in black.
