Milt designed the original Hackathorn Special in the late 70’s and named it after his friend and fellow IPSC founder, Ken Hackathorn. The Hackathorn Special was a high-ride, muzzle-forward rig  for 1911's that incorporated the adjustable tension welt that was the heart of our 200AW and Gold Label rigs.

 Today the Hackathorn Special  is no longer available for semi-autos, but the concept and name have evolved into this highly popular revolver holster. The main differences between the HSR and 200AW holsters is the absence of the hammer shroud 

on the HSR. Also, the 200AW is not offered in the muzzle forward configuration which makes the HSR ideal for those who prefer a crossdraw for hunting or field use.

 Standard cant is muzzle forward (cross-draw). Straight drop or muzzle to the rear (pictured above) available on request. Please specify when ordering.

Available for most revolvers with barrel lengths up to 7 1/2". Can be fitted on belts up to 2" wide. Colors available are black, cordovan or natural (tan)
