Known for both concealed carry holsters and law enforcement gear, Gould & Goodrich Holsters has been in business since 1981. Located in eastern NC, Gould & Goodrich was originally owned and operated by a subsidiary of S&W. The plant produced duty holsters and law enforcement accessories under the S&W name. In 1984, S&W decided to step out of the holster business and the plant was sold to a partnership called Gould & Goodrich. Since that time, Gould & Goodrich (more commonly called G&G) has been producing holsters that are used all across the world.
Gould & Goodrich is probably best known for their law enforcement gear, which is in use all across the U.S. as well as internationally. Within the last few years, G&G opted to enter the concealed carry market. The line of CCW holsters that they offer is rapidly growing and features some unique designs. Probably the most popular designs they offer include the B891 clip-on and B890 belt slide. Unlike some holster production companies who may take 6-8 weeks to get a holster manufactured, G&G seems to have a very efficient process as they can usually have a holster completed in under 4 weeks.
On the LEO front, G&G is starting to offer law enforcement duty holsters that feature a hood release or an integrated release versus the traditional thumb break release. They have started offering a kydex model holster covered in a synthetic laminate which performs very well and is extremely durable.
