About Us
Who We Are
Salty Dog was started by Greg Acton, a retired Sergeant with 26 yrs of police service. With a diverse career of 16 yrs in patrol, 10 yrs in investigations, and 22 yrs as a firearms instructor he has the knowledge and experience of what makes a comfortable and properly built holster. We have shipped firearm holsters to nearly every state in North America and even Europe!
Spending summers fishing off the coast of New Jersey and speaking with fishing professionals, we have designed products that fill a need with all types of recreational anglers and professional mates/captains alike. Our fishing holsters are on the waists of fresh water lake fishermen and the crews of the top producing multi million dollar sport fishing boats traveling the world. Our holsters are used by crews in North America, Hawaii, South America, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand!
Unfortunately because of supply chain issues in 2021, our primary firearm mold maker went out of business. Due to the inability to obtain quality molds for new firearms and the overwhelming popularity of our fishing products, we made the difficult decision to move exclusively into the fishing holster side. We appreciate our loyal firearm customers who supported the start of our business, believe us when we say the decision was not easy, but necessary.
Here at Salty Dog Holster Works, we do not mass produce any of our products. Each item is individually hand made using a vacuum forming process. The molds used for our fishing products are custom made in house. Taking input from customers and the fishing community, we will continue to expand our offerings . Reach out to us with your needs, and with enough request maybe we can add your ideas to our line.
