The standard SS-2: natural tan cowhide, FBI rake
Springfield Armory Operator in black cowhide configuration Summer Special 2
Introduced in 1992, the Summer Special 2 holster combines features of our original Summer Special and our Executives Companion holster. The SS-2 features rough-side out construction, full encased metal reinforced mouth, sewn-in sight rails, a protective shirt guard extension, hand detail molding and our interchangeable belt loop system as standard. The Summer Special 2 rides slightly lower than our standard Summer Special model and has a FBI style rake (straight drop upon request).
The SS-2 is highly recommended to those who prefer a more compact style holster like the Summer Special but desire a few more features in a holster. Because of its lower ride height and greater adaptability to more firearm models, the SS-2 is recommended for a larger variety of firearms vs. the Summer Special. We are always happy to offer any assistance in helping you make a decision on which holster may be right for your needs.
The SS-2 is available for a variety of optic mounted firearms*. Please call our shop with inquiries regarding your configuration of optic and gun. An optic cut SS-2 is always made in straight drop to prevent the optic from contacting your belt and potentially causing harm to your optic or your gear.
*Due to the unlimited variations of optics and their mounting options, we cannot guarantee that our optic cut holsters will fit your current or future setup. If you have any questions, please call before ordering. In the event there is a fitment issue and it is possible, we will work within our means to make it fit. There may be a small fee associated. We will not be responsible for any return shipping charges.
PLEASE NOTE: This holster will not work for optics that protrude into the ejection port area. If you have ANY questions about compatibility, please give us a call to discuss your options.
The SS-2 comes standard in rough out cowhide construction in our natural tan color. It is also available with a black top band and black loops with a rough side out body.
For those who prefer the look of a smooth out holster, we offer the SS-2 in full horsehide, horsehide with shark trim and horsehide with elephant trim in all black.
