Annie get your gun! Fast Holster Review

How quickly can you get your gun?  I agree that the best option is on the body carry but I do like to sleep occasionally.

For me here at stately manor I do not have some issues others may have.  I live alone but for many there are State and Federal Laws concerning accessibility of Firearms by minors.  For me its NCGS 14-315.1  At the very least its the Youth Handgun Safety Act on the Federal level for everyone else.

Biometric access works and I have one example here.  There is a problem with trusting electronics to read your fingerprint and fire a solenoid to open the door though.  If there was not, they would not give you a key to manually open the thing. 

Me, well here is the nightstand. 



 
 


 









Um, yeah that is a Heathkit GC-1108 alarm clock.  I bought it new and assembled it a long time ago.  It will not die.  

Wait, I digress.  We were talking about the FAST Holster. 

It looks like this for long guns out of the box.



   


 











It is a really strong magnet!  So we get to it to see if it will do what I ask of it.  Hang a Winchester shotty off of it. 

Guess what?  It works!  


 



















I'm impressed!  It shipped from Indy real quick and cheap enough.  They make them in several sizes and I will be getting more.

  1. That's pretty cool. I have a similar magnet under the night stand next to my bed, from which hangs a 1911.

  2. I have one mounted to the frame under the bed and another one in the bookcase.

  3. Interesting, but I 'hope' you're actually going to store it barrel down... :-P

  4. Huh. Never thought of that sort of "holster".

    After grandbaby gets mobile I'll have to start thinking about putting things away. I've wondered about the reliability of biometric.

    1. I don't have a problem with the bio stuff, just charge or change the batteries on a regular basis.

  5. What about those plastic body guns? Will they hang on it?
