The Galco DAO178 is a tan leather belt slide holster purpose-built for Ruger RedHawk revolvers in right-hand draw. If you carry a RedHawk for hunting, backcountry protection, or duty work, this is a straightforward OWB (outside-the-waistband) option that keeps your revolver accessible and secure on your belt. Galco's leather holsters are known for durability and a break-in period that yields a custom fit—this one is no exception.
Belt slide design means the holster rides on your waistband without additional mounting hardware, making it quick to attach or remove. The tan leather finish works with most belt and outfit colors, and right-hand orientation puts the grip ready for a natural draw from your dominant side. Whether you're in the field or at the range, a properly fitted revolver holster eliminates fumbling and keeps both hands free until you need the gun.
Galco designs for real-world carry and has built a reputation among hunters, sport shooters, and armed professionals. This DAO178 is built to last through years of use, though like quality leather gear, it improves with wear. The Ruger RedHawk is a serious revolver—it deserves a holster that matches that capability.
Yes—the DAO178 is specifically molded for the Ruger RedHawk and is designed to fit that revolver reliably.
This is a right-hand holster, designed for right-handed shooters drawing from their dominant side.
A belt slide holster rides directly on your waistband and is held in place by tension against your belt. It requires no additional hardware or permanent mounting—you simply slide it on or off as needed.
Galco leather holsters are hand-fitted and may feel stiff initially. They conform and soften with use, eventually molding slightly to your specific gun and carry method for an even better fit over time.
