Desantis Gunhide
The Desantis Desperado holster for Colt SAA 5.5" is a purpose-built rig for cowboy action shooting and traditional single-action revolver sports. This isn't mall-ninja tactical gear—it's an authentic reproduction of 1800s Mexican loop holsters, built from premium saddle leather with full suede lining inside. If you're serious about SASS competition or just want a holster that looks and functions like the real deal, the Desperado delivers both character and practical carry.
Desantis engineered this holster specifically for the Colt Single Action Army and compatible revolvers in the 5.5" barrel length. The design includes a hammer thong to keep your gun secure during movement and action, plus decorative border stamping and period-correct branding that make it visually distinctive without sacrificing function. The leather is broken in and comes ready to use, not stiff or awkward out of the box.
The holster accommodates belts up to 2.25" wide, so it'll work with standard gun belts or wider leather rigs. Right-hand draw configuration. Whether you're running matches, hunting with a SAA revolver, or just appreciate authentic cowboy gear, this holster bridges the gap between historical accuracy and modern reliability. It's the kind of piece that works as hard as it looks.
