Galco Shoulder Rig Question

XD 45 · April 4th, 2009, 02:08 AM

I bought a Galco Carry-Lite shoulder holster from cheaper than dirt less than 2 weeks ago and I have since been using it for my full time carry method hence I do alot of driving and traveling and I carry it with a tshirt and a button down on top of than and have notice the snap on the side of the holster than holds the retention strap is starting to show slight to moderate fraying is this normal or do I need to call the company and try to have it replaced?

Any chance you could get a pic posted of the area that is fraying LT? I do know that the leather in the lite rigs is not as tough as the leather they use on the full price rigs (Miami Classic)

It's rough side out, so I'm assuming you're saying the suede is picking up? Might be able to smooth it back down and burnish the edge a little with wax.
