Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Gun Rack - How Custom Holsters Can Add Value To Every Sale
Q: What is the business model for profit in holster sales vs wholesale?
Retail on templates runs around $65-85, wholesale about a third of that; margins can be strong enough that holster profits rival firearm margins, reinforcing the value of upsells at the point of sale.
The Gun Rack - How Custom Holsters Can Add Value To Every Sale
Q: What makes your holsters special at live events?
The ability to customize on the spot, low return rate due to live fitting, and a turnkey kit including press, oven, heat gun, and templates; the process is designed to be quick and portable, with strong emphasis on customer interaction.
The Gun Rack - How Custom Holsters Can Add Value To Every Sale
