Product Description
MTR Custom Cross Draw Holster
There are certain situations where a cross draw holster may be the best option for carry, and MTR Custom has designed their Cross Draw holster to fulfill that need.
A major challenge in designing an effective cross draw holster focuses on the draw angle. Make the angle too shallow on the belt and gun will barely stay in. Make the cant angle too deep the other way and the handgun becomes more difficult to draw. After testing a series of angles, coupled with user feedback, MTR has come up with what they feel is the “optimal” draw angle for a cross draw rig.
This model offers a body shield to help protect the user from the sharper edges of the weapon along with a reinforced holster mouth for easy one handed reholstering.
The holster mounts to the belt using 2 belt slots designed for a belt up to 1 ¾” wide and features a belt channel for added stability. The MTR Cross Draw is manufactured from top grade 6 to 7 ounce bull hide leather with all the materials coming from the USA. The finishing touch on this model is a boned in finish to ensure a secure and snug fit for the weapon.
Often cross draw holster are often called driving holsters as they are very popular in situations where a significant amount of time is spent behind the wheel of a vehicle. If you are in the market for a high quality cross draw holster, have a look at the MTR model.
Common FAQS
Some frequently asked questions about this holster model:
Do you what angle this holster rides at?
To be honest, I don't as I don't think MTR ever specifically identified a numerical angle (like the 15 degree forward cant) for this holster. I think they based the angle on testing, customer feedback, and 3rd party evaluations. The end result may not have a specific angle (or negative angle) associated with it, but it works extremely well just the same.
Will MTR do any other belt loop sizes other than 1 3/4"? I really prefer mine to be 1.5"?
Understood, but not at this time. It could be a possibility later on.
It looks as though this holster is "boned"? is that right?
Yes, most all the MTR models have a certain degree of boning. If you aren't familiar, the term "boning" refers to the process of using a tool to outline specific parts of the pistol into the leather. It gets it's name as early holster makers used tools made out of bone to make these impressions in the leather. It does seem to make for a better overall fit as compared to a non-boned model.

Its what I expected and its very good
Sticks out a bit more then I would like, but its a very good holster with a loose fitting shirt

Crossdraw holster
It is a nice holster, well made and fit's like a glove. However belt loops are too low causing top of gun to swing out away from the body. Balance is wrong. Also there is little to no cant. Pretty much a straight drop holster. Wouldn't buy again.

Great Holster
I have two of these now and love them both! One for a Glock and one for a 1911.

Crossdraw Holster
My Glock 26 fits this holster perfectly! My only problem with it is that I want to use it with a Polymer 80 PF940SC. I'm going to try using steam to soften the leather around the trigger guard and see if it will stretch to fit the larger Poly 80. We'll see! I might have to grind off the point on the Poly 80 trigger guard to make it fit! I do not like Kydex holsters and wish so that they would make one of these specifically for the Poly 80 frame!

Custom Crossdraw WELL WORTH THE WAIT!
Gunners Alley had never made a holster for my rare pistol so they added it to their menu and I was the first. Really proud to own it. Fine Craftsmanship. Will use it often. Thanks, Guys!

Fits Like a Glove
My Beretta 92a1 with a Olight mini Valkery on it fit perfectly with no break in needed. Very high quality holster! Worth the 5 weeks to get it, for sure.

Great Holster!
I really like this holster. Beautifully crafted! Rides well and is very concealable. Great to wear when driving. I am using the one I just purchased to carry Glock 19. I will be purchasing another one of these holsters in the near future to carry a Browning Hi-Power in. MTR is highly recommended!

MTR Cross Draw Holster is Dynamite and so is Gunner's Alley!
Recently ordered a MTR Cross Draw for my Sig P238 with a Lima Laser. When it arrived, it fit the firearm perfectly. No messing around with plastic bag or plastic wrap necessary. Quality of leather and workmanship are absolutely top tier! I liked it so much that I immediately ordered a double MTR mag carrier... In both instances I received amazing customer support from Brad at Gunner's Alley. He's simply terrific and GA's gonna be my go-to place for holsters going forward. I heartily recommend Gunner's Alley and MTR!!
