The Cole-Tac VWX103 Varmint Wrangler XL delivers secure pistol retention during extended field operations and hunting scenarios. This chest-mounted system positions your sidearm for rapid access while keeping hands free for primary weapon manipulation or equipment handling.
What Makes This Different
Unlike traditional belt holsters that create pressure points during long sits or prone shooting, this chest platform distributes weight across the torso. The XL sizing accommodates full-size pistols with mounted lights or optics, while the adjustable retention system secures weapons without requiring thumb breaks or complex release mechanisms. Military-grade construction withstands field abuse that destroys civilian alternatives.
Key Features
- Right-hand draw configuration optimized for cross-body access
- Adjustable retention fits pistols from 4" to 6" barrel lengths
- Coyote Brown finish matches military and hunting camouflage patterns

Field testing demonstrates consistent draw times under 1.2 seconds from concealed position. The chest mounting eliminates interference with pack waist belts, climbing harnesses, or vehicle seats. Weather-resistant materials maintain function in temperatures from -20°F to 140°F, while the low-profile design prevents snagging on vegetation during stalking movements.
