I use and recommend a Simply Rugged holster with the added Chesty Puller harness. Holster can be used several ways.

Since most chest holsters are built for specific guns, the closest thing to a universal one is getting a Bianchi UM84 holster and the chest harness to adapt one to the chest configuration. The latter are hard to find.
Not knowing what you want to carry you'll have to see if the UM84 will work,....

...otherwise getting an a large enough chest pouch/rig set-up is the only other "universal" option. Lots of options there.
I use HPG kit bags.

Universal Military Holster, I
The UM84I is the commercial offering of the M12 military holster. Designed to specifically fit a variety of 5 in. semiautomatics such as the Beretta 92 and Colt 1911. Its unique, ambidextrous design, when worn with other Bianchi accessories, provides several different carry options. Flap is...

I like the alien gear, it is not universal but that may not be a problem. you can get it for many different guns. i also like the chest gun pouches talyn posted. i may end up getting the alien gear for one gun and the chest pouch to carry all the others if i so choose. thanks for the links men and advice.
Mostly these will be used in the woods. i really don't care for a heavy handgun like a 45 or 10mm hangin off my belt.

I have a couple of the Gunfighters rigs, and they are fine quality and meet my needs.
When the weather is crappy I use the HPG Kit bags for weather protection. They have 2-way zippers that allow for quick access.

I highly recommend the Diamond D Guides Choice, I've had mine for years and it still looks/works great; for synthetic I also have some Denali chest holsters, one of which I used during Elk bowhunting (A.K.A. camping with weapons) this season which is also comfortable & more importantly quiet... it's easier to pot a grouse in a tree rather than go in search of my arrow if I get a pass through on those little buggers while in a tree

I use one of these (Dale) FRICKE ZACCHAEUS trigger guard covers in the HPG kit bags to prevent any thing snagging on the Glock-type trigger area. They pop off real fast & the string can be tied inside the pouch so it comes off when you draw the pistol from the pouch.
The Glock version that HPG sells work fine on Glocks & the SA XDms I have.

The Zacchaeus© Concealment Holster
The “Zach”© was named after the biblical Zacchaeus© found in Luke 19. In the account, he arrived before the crowd who were later to meet with Jesus, who was passing through Jericho on his way to Jerusalem. Described as a very short man, Zacchaeus© climbed up a sycamore fig tree so that he might...

I have one of these for my 329PD.

But I use the hybrid kydex/web strap types most of he time due to their lighter weight.
