They say there’s a sucker born every minute. No where does this seem to be more true than in the firearms industry. Poorly thought of add-ons, holsters, ammunition design, etc.
I remember Col. Cooper being asked (with regard to the latest variant of some pistol, which certainly was not necessary), “Jeff, what’s it for? To sell, of course!” was his reply.
I’m certain you can think of many others, as well as selections of the ‘good’ variety that didn’t get marketed properly and went away.
Such is the nature of business…

For every dumb product or poorly-executed idea, there’s a sucker who’ll think it’s the greatest thing since sliced bread – and will be willing to pay big bucks for it. But bad ideas/products generally disappear, given a bit of time.

Never heard of the bungee holster before. A new version of a 75 year old idea. The OSS string or loop holster was thought up in WWII for resistance folks. Ditch the gun and you didn’t have a holster attached to you, just an innocuous loop of string.
