Galco Hornet Strongside/Crossdraw Holster Taurus Small-Frame Black LH | ShopTaurus
Add to wish list
Engineered for ultimate concealment and versatile placement, the Galco Hornet™ Belt Holster for Taurus Small-Frame Revolvers (SKU: HT119B) delivers dual-mode capability for left-handed shooters. Hand-crafted from premium black steerhide, it seamlessly supports both strongside and crossdraw carry.
The Galco Hornet™ is designed specifically for shooters who want a compact, comfortable Outside-the-Waistband (OWB) belt holster for small-frame double-action revolvers (such as the Taurus 856, 605, and 85 series). Crafted from premium steerhide in a clean black finish, its low-profile footprint sits tight against the torso to minimize printing under casual clothing.
Constructed with a tunnel-style belt loop combined with a rear belt slot, the Hornet accommodates two distinct carry styles: a conventional strongside draw or an angled crossdraw configuration. Crossdraw placement makes this holster exceptional for drivers, commuters, or seated workers who require fast accessibility without interference from seatbelts. Its open-top design combined with precision molding delivers smooth passive retention and a quick draw stroke.

Storefront Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this holster made for left-handed shooters?
A: Yes. SKU HT119B is explicitly molded and cut for Left-Handed (LH) orientation.
Q: Can I wear this as a crossdraw holster on my right hip?
A: Yes. Because this is a Left-Handed model, mounting it on your right hip angles the grip across your body for a natural crossdraw movement with your left hand.
Q: Will this holster fit my optics-ready (T.O.R.O.) revolver?
A: No. The Hornet is designed for standard iron-sight small-frame revolvers. For T.O.R.O. models with red dots, look for the Galco Hawkeye or Speed Master 2.0 series.
