DeSantis Gunhide Wild Hog OWB — Natural Leather Belt Holster, Fits Heritage Rough Rider & Ruger Wrangler, Ambidextrous, 1.75" Belt Slots (189NJ9QZ0 • UPC 792695361411)

Classic six-gun style meets everyday utility. The DeSantis Gunhide Wild Hog OWB is a rugged outside-the-waistband holster crafted from natural leather and built specifically to fit popular rimfire single-action revolvers like the Heritage Rough Rider and Ruger Wrangler. With ambidextrous belt slots sized for 1.75" belts, the Wild Hog delivers a secure, high-riding carry that works on the ranch, at the range, or around the property—without sacrificing comfort, retention, or that timeless leather look.

Why Owners Love the Wild Hog

  • Purpose-built fit: Molded for Heritage Rough Rider and Ruger Wrangler frames for confident retention and a smooth, straight-line draw.

  • Ambidextrous design: Belt slots allow right- or left-hand OWB carry—ideal for shared gear or cross-dominant training.

  • Natural leather durability: Sturdy, premium leather forms to your revolver and breaks in beautifully, providing long service life with classic style.

  • High-ride, close-to-body: Keeps the revolver tucked tight for better balance while walking, riding, or working.

  • Generous belt compatibility: 1.75" belt slots pair perfectly with work, EDC, and range belts for rock-solid stability.

  • Open-top speed: Snag-free reholstering and quick access for pest control, steel shooting, or farm chores.

Pro Tip: Pair the Wild Hog with a rigid 1.5–1.75" leather or nylon belt to maximize stability and comfort for your Wrangler or Rough Rider.

Break-In & Care

  1. Dry fit first: Holster will feel snug out of the package—that’s normal.

  2. 50–100 draw cycles: With your unloaded revolver, perform smooth draw/reholster reps to seat the molding.

  3. Leather care: Use a small amount of leather conditioner (sparingly) to keep the exterior supple; avoid overwetting.

  4. No heat or soaking: Excess heat or water can deform leather and weaken stitching.


Safety & Best Practices

  • Always verify unloaded before holstering, break-in, or dry practice.

  • Keep garments clear of the mouth during reholstering.

  • Use an appropriate rigid belt for best support and retention.

  • Follow all local laws regarding open carry and transport.

FAQ

Q: Will this holster work with birdshead or special-edition grips?
A: Most grip shapes fit, but aggressive/oversize profiles can change holstering feel. Test fit your specific revolver.

A: Retention is molded leather friction. It will relax slightly during break-in; perform a tug test before carry.

Q: Can I use a 1.5" belt?
A: Yes—1.5" belts will fit, but the 1.75" slots are optimized for wider belts used in ranch, range, and work applications.

Q: Is it lined?
A: The Wild Hog uses durable natural leather; some units may have a smooth interior face. Always keep grit out of the holster to protect finishes.

Q: Will it fit optics or lights?
A: No—this model is not cut for optics or weapon lights. Choose a holster designed for those accessories if needed.
