Coulda put this in hunting but seemed here was relevant also.
I intend to use this fella for hunting this season ..... or maybe even the .454 Raging Bull ... but .... decided I really needed something in which to carry the larger ''tools''.!! Being in this case an attached red dot ... or, scope on Bull .... needed something of good size. The latter BTW is shorter barrel but packing inside holster takes care of that.
I explored not long ago and ran across The Concealment Shop Inc out of Mesquite TX.
I called them (972-289-8997) - their site is not ideal because rather too many pics on one page ... tho if you have a fast connection, worth a look of course. Explore 'holsters' and then IIRC, 'Large' holsters.
Discussed my needs with a most helpful lady and made an order ... which was to include, for an extra $10, a belt as well. Total with shipping was $57.95.
I set up the straps and belt etc with some experiment and so far have settled on a position as shown in pic series below. I show this for general interest but also because I enjoy good products and like to let others see them .... good companies IMO earn recommendation with quality goods.

This is the set-up as I have it right now - with gun outside to show comparison. Shoulder strap is set quite high, and this means belt also rides high which is good ... it stays above leatherman and carry piece.

This is a front view ... with angle about as I want it ... tho as yet may bring it up higher... for easier walking.

Viewed more from left side
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And finally ... partly from the right - showing belt being worn above pants belt. Holster has been allowed to be more angled here too. Looks like I should eat a bit less too! !!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Needless to say - this is a big piece to carry at all .. and concealed? Well ... this set-up under a suitable coat and perhaps it just might but .. this is not a case for concealment .. just a means of carry to keep hands free.
The front ''spine'' of the holster has three pairs of elastic loops for keeping spare rounds .. very handy.
Any piece this size will be something of a burden but this rig gets IMO real close to maximizing comfort and functionality.
