The Hunter Company 0638 Cartridge Belt Slide delivers reliable ammunition access for .38 caliber revolvers with its traditional leather construction. This belt-mounted carrier positions six rounds within immediate reach while maintaining a low profile that won't interfere with draw mechanics or movement.

Unlike synthetic carriers that can crack in extreme temperatures, this slide features full-grain leather construction that actually improves with age and use. The chestnut tan finish provides excellent weather resistance while maintaining professional appearance.
