Gun Slips

We are amazed by those who own the most expensive of guns yet carry them round in thin slips which may not even have proper zips or buckles. We only make gunslips to order, asking you to provide the dimensions, and then hand make the slip to exactly fit your gun. We have two models, one with a full length heavy duty zip, and the other with the added protection of a fold-over flap with a closing flap with a solid brass buckle for extra security. In addition, we can use either saddle leather for a lighter, more supple slip, or bridle finished shoulder leather for a tougher and more protective slip – useful when handing your gun to a loader….. Again, the slips are made by our Master Saddler in Devon, cut and finished by hand from selected hides, and then lined with a luxurious pure new wool fleece, before having the edges bound in soft leather.  The muzzle ends, different for side-by-sides and over-and-unders (to your specification), are hand-sewn over a heavy waxed nylon liner which ensures long life and durability.

Double slips for pairs of guns can actually be two single slips, held together by two removable straps and a special sling strap, all of which can be removed if only one gun is needed. Or we can make them in one piece which reduces the weight marginally, and also makes them easier to handle. The flap can be initialled, like our cartridge bags.
