Do You Need a Mag Carrier? Maybe, Maybe Not, Yet...


The answer is yes, if you want to carry extra ammo.


Mag Carriers come in all different shapes and sizes. Generally, carry options consist of offset carriers on the opposite side from the handgun with shoulder holsters. Then there are IWB and OWB carriers that can be worn on your non-dominant side. The whole purpose is to have more ammunition with you than your firearm will hold.

Black Shark Skin Mag Carrier

Shark skin is very tough and scuff resistant, making it very durable and maintenance-free. I've read that Shark Skin is ten-times stronger than cowhide.

The hardware on this holder is fantastic. I haven't tried it yet, but I think this could be worn OWB or IWB and it will certainly ride well attached to the sun visor in my truck.

"The Southern Trapper Mag Carrier made of Shark Skin for the Double-Stack 9mm SIG P320."
Steve McQueen made this style holster famous when he carried a 2.5" Colt Diamondback .38 in a Safariland Model 19 holster in the 1968 movie "Bullitt."

McQueen based the character of Frank Bullitt on San Francisco Inspector Dave Toschi, with whom he worked prior to filming. McQueen copied Toschi's unique "fast-draw" shoulder holster.

Toschi later became famous, along with Inspector Bill Armstrong, as the lead San Francisco investigators of the Zodiac Killer murders that began shortly after the release of Bullitt. Toschi is played by Mark Ruffalo in the film Zodiac, in which Paul Avery (Robert Downey Jr.) mentions that "McQueen got the idea for the holster from Toschi."

Any Mag Holder from The Southern Trapper comes with a 100 Year Warranty. And it's easy to see how they can stand behind their magazine carriers in this way. This is my sixth purchase from them and I must say, the quality of their products are unsurpassed.
