I've been staring at those things for a while now. I really want one, but the shipping adds something like $10, so it's not quite as good a deal as I'd like.

Anyhow, how about some pictures? Maybe wearing it, maybe a close-up of your needlecraft?

Sorry don't have a way to take pictures. Ordered 3 of them and a 2 mag pouches back when I got my CZ82. I'm 5'11" with a 38 inch waist and it just fits let out almost all the way. The P64 fits inside great except for the top leaves a little gap. The leather piece across the top on the inside is thinner and soft. I put my P64 inside and pinched the top and tied it with thread. I guess you could use a small bundle tie as well.

Boris, I agree. I was interested in it when I saw $5, but when I saw the ripoff $11 shipping, I immediately closed the page. It wasn't worth it. I could probably just make my own for cheaper out of my leather. Oh well. I have saw pictures of them being worn, and they look real neat.

I too almost canceled my order for one when I saw the ridiculous shipping charge but I decided that the bigger picture looks something like this... I can get a genuine, made to fit, CZ shoulder holster in real animal hide for $15. I'm in!
Buyers beware though. I am 6'2" 230lbs and this thing just barely fits. It is ok standing and sitting upright but if you lean forward too far the little clips that hold the straps to your pants will not hold. Otherwise I am a happy camper.

Glad to hear you are satisfied with it. Not sure what could be done go make the straps a tad longer other than to find some form of material to make an extension. It is a tempting deal, your overall picture is what I tried to imagine but I just couldn't do it. I can make my own holsters and other stuff from leather, but I have to consider if it's really worth the time and effort when I could just get that one for $15... decisions, decisions... It does look pretty slick!

I was having the same problem and found that it worked better clipping it to my belt instead...

I got the whiz bang deluxe edition with two mag pouches. It arrived this week.

Seems like a good basic shoulder rig, especially for the less than $20 to your door price. Not going to bother modifying it for the P64, as it works so well for the pistol it was designed for. I've been wearing it around the house today for a couple hours. No issues with the straps or clips coming off, but I did attach them to my belt.

This will be a good walk in the woods/park with coat on rig.

I'm planning to order some CZ82 parts from CZ-USA and I would consider adding the shoulder holster to the package, but before making a phone call, I would like to see a photo of the holster being worn with handgun.

Any volunteers with camera.....?

OK, along with several parts I ordered and I received two CZ surplus holsters - one tan, other brown. Both seem to be same size.

I noticed a bit discomfort in wearing one with loaded CZ82. I may try to fit my much lighter LCR .357 magnum to see if that works.

For $4.99 each, IMO the CZ holster isn't a bad deal.
