Sounds good bro. I’ll be doing a brown one in the original design so you can see how it looks before I make yours.

Nice leather work! The indentation in the trigger is a good safety feature.

I like this one for a GK1 with a scope mounted on top. I like your original one if there is only a red dot. I’d like to get two of yours as well as I have both a .22 and .25 GK1.

So, I've been following this thread religiously. Searching the net high and low, trying to find the perfect holster for the gk1. Alas, I still haven't found it.
Tonight, while cleaning out my shop, I decided to put my binocular harness on (which I almost never use) and it occurred to me that the pistol could rest against my chest while wearing the harness.
It would be nice if there were an actual pocket for it to sit in, but it's extremely comfortable the way it sits, and it's not going anywhere. I jumped around to be sure it was secure, and did a few laps around the shop.
Don't think I'll be looking for a holster any longer, unless something absolutely beautiful comes along.
The only downside being that it relies on the optic to stay in position. As long as I keep the optic guard on, it shouldn't be a problem.

A good while back, I got the economy holster NEAG has. It is made of thin, soft brown leather. Recently I decided to make it stiffer. First, I wetted it, then formed it to my GK1; after drying, every few hours, I sprayed a very light coat of black paint on it, after numerous coats, & added a thin coat of Elmer's glue. Then, more coats of paint, letting it dry thoroughly between coats. Lastly, I have probably put on another four to 6 coats of clear enamel. Now, the holster is firm and feels like plastic. The GK1 fits in it snug.

This first holster is made by Uncle Mike’s. It’s called a sidekick scopes holster for an 8” barrel. The pistol fits snug with a red dot on it but is loose if using iron sights. Credit to @Genob for finding this one.


With no other options for a holster I made my own.

Handmade from Herman Oak English bridle leather. Hand stitched using saddle stitch method to lock in every stitch ensuring longevity. (Top holster is slightly flared at muzzle end to accept a moderator)

Hi--I am very interested in getting one of your Huben GK1 holsters. How might we proceed?

I had to try the cheap drill holster from amazon. It works. A little smaller would be better so it doesn’t sit so deep, but not like I am going to be doing quick draws. I will probably have the supressor on too and it is a handy way to carry it through the woods or to a shooting spot. The pellet pouch is a nice bonus.

Thanks for the great review Bernie! I can understand the concern about the two rivets. The pistol should be secure enough in the holster to not bounce into the rivets. However, going forward I’ll offer to put a strip of leather over the two rivets. I’ll do this for your holster as well.

My Huben Gk1 should be here monday and I would love to get one of these. I am new to forums and still trying to figure out the navigation. How can I get in line for one of these. can you email me at [email protected] with info? Thanks your holster is the best looking one I have seen for this pistol.
