of holsters from top name makers, and the prices aren't all that bad...
A Galco Jackass for $93.00, for example...
Miami Classic for $115... (MSRP for both is pushing $160).
It looks, however, as if it might be quite the chore to find the correct holster for your gun...

That is no way to organize your products. Maybe finding what you need at, say, UncleMikes.com and then searching on the product name will get you there faster.

Who'd'a thunk it?
I just placed an order with Gunner's Alley, or else I'd go scope it right now.

Isn't Amazon anti?:confused: I guess when it comes to making $, their politics are cast into the wind.

Beats me whether they're anti or not.
I posted them a feed back on how much of a pain in the ??? their holster site is to use.
There are 13 IDENTICAL pictures of Galco SOBs. Same holster with the same gun.
In order to try to figure out what guns the holsters fit, you have to open EVERY individual file.
What an assnine way of doing it.

If they're anti, they sure have plenty of gun related books for sale.

Wow! I would have never thought it possible.
I wonder if they're going to expand into the sale of other types of gun gear?
Or is it only a matter of time when some over-sensitive type complains and wants it gone from the site? "Oh! Think of the children!"
Only time will tell...
What section was this under anyway?

I just received my order of rifle/benchrest shooting books Saturday. They confirmed my order 11/6 and I paid for 3 to 5 day delivery. Two days is a slick trick.
Their Sporting Goods section is marked BETA and contains tree stands, binocs, gun cases, cleaning stuff, etc..

They also carry the Enemies Foreign and Domestic book. I dont know that any of the other retailers do. I think that Amazon does HAVE political leanings which is EXACTLY how a company should be run. That and i have ALWAYS had great service from them and their ordering system is wonderful. You can change your order cancel it etc just one day before everything ships. Of course they charge me sales tax so i only buy things i cant find anywhere else there. But, in nearly a dozen transactions ive never had a hitch.

Jeff Bezos said somewhere that he didn't want to sell guns, but I don't think he put any additional spin on it, leaving it open as to whether this was a philosophical stance or one of liability.

Tell me about it, George.
When I discovered the stuff they had this afternoon I was bowled over.
I hadn't heard hide nor hair of their move into the sporting goods side of things.
I knew they were doing small appliances, cooking gear, and home furnishings, but man...
