Description
If you've spent any time looking at IWB options, you've probably heard about Galco's original Stow-N-Go design. The Elite version takes that proven blueprint and elevates it into something special. This isn't just incremental improvement, though. Galco made it part of their Masterbilt series, which means it gets the full treatment: premium materials, meticulous hand-molding, and construction methods you don't find at this level in most holsters.
Built for comfortable, concealed daily carry
The Stow-N-Go Elite is constructed of fully-lined premium steerhide with detailed hand-molding for both secure retention and genuine beauty as a hand-crafted piece. That smooth leather lining does real work, too. It gives you better tactile feedback when you draw while protecting your gun's finish from the friction leather naturally creates. Unlike cheaper holsters, the leather lining actually feels refined and functions better during the draw stroke.
Masterbilt holsters ship ready to carry with little or no break-in required. They're dried on a last, which is a solid form that shapes the holster perfectly during curing. You get out of the box what most leather holsters need weeks of carrying to achieve. The open-top design allows a clean, unrestricted draw, and the firm, lined construction keeps the holster open and waiting for your return to holster instead of collapsing on itself.
Carry options that work for your lifestyle
The vertical orientation gives you flexibility. You can run this at strong side or appendix carry depending on your preference and what you're wearing that day. The smooth exterior makes repositioning natural if you switch positions. The sturdy polymer belt clip uses a claw shape to secure firmly to your belt or pants and prevent accidental removal. The holster fits belts up to 1 3/4 inches wide, which covers most quality gun belts out there.

No. Galco's Masterbilt holsters, including the Stow-N-Go Elite, are dried on a form that shapes them perfectly during curing. They're ready to carry right out of the box with little or no break-in required, unlike many leather holsters that need weeks of use to conform to your gun.
Can I use the Stow-N-Go Elite for both strong side and appendix carry?
Yes. The vertical orientation allows you to carry this holster at strong side or appendix position depending on your needs. The smooth exterior also makes repositioning natural if you want to switch between positions throughout the day.
What's the difference between the Stow-N-Go Elite and the standard Stow-N-Go?
The Elite is Galco's premium version and part of their Masterbilt series. It uses fully-lined premium steerhide with detailed hand-molding and arrives ready to carry without break-in. The standard version uses different materials and requires more initial conditioning. The Elite represents a significant step up in craftsmanship and quality.
Will the polymer belt clip hold securely on my belt?
The sturdy polymer clip features a claw design that secures firmly to your belt or pants and is designed to prevent accidental removal. It's built to handle regular carry use and works well with standard gun belts up to 1 3/4 inches wide.
