Manasquan, NJ --(Ammoland.com)- By now many of you have heard of the passing of Mark Craighead, the innovator and creator behind the brand Crossbreed Holsters on Friday August 24th 2012.
Brian and I will miss Mark and his support for AmmoLand Shooting Sport News. He was an example of the best the firearms industry had to offer. Always an innovator, not afraid to speak his mind and loyal to those that supported him.

He will be greatly missed.

My sympathies to the family.
Didnt really know him, but felt as I did because of his upbeat freind personality. I was saddened when I found out of his passing.
I never met mark but have respected his spirit of giving to others. I own and use a super tuck holster and recommend everyone consider crossbreed holsters when looking for a conceal carry holster. God be with your family, and I look forward to getting to meet you on that glorious day in heaven. Thank you Mark. Sincerely Clinton Cooper
