With the high demand on custom holsters these days what do you guys feel is the best mass production maker, model, etc is. I would be really curios if they dare to hear what some of our custom makers think they would buy while waiting. I have always bought Don Hume open tops in the past to get me bye till the custom comes, then the Hume becomes the hiking, bush beating holster.
Galco is more pricey, but better quality than Desantis IMHO, but as Desantis is less expensive, you can usually find a good on-the-rack selection at many shops.
I've had good experience with Galco and Desantis
also, I like my Predator holsters but I don't know if they're still in business or not, the web site either changed or they quit having one :frown:
I would suggest that you either call LA Sports/Lightning Arms - they have DelFatti, Alessi and Sparks holsters in stock, or Coal Creek Armory (They carry my stuff). Another source would be Brownell's - they also stock Sparks.
There are very few factory made concealment holsters that I'd trust my life to...
If its off the shelf, for me its either Galco or DeSantis. Some occasions I'll get another brand, but 90% of my rigs are those two or custom made holsters.
I have Bianchi, Galco, and others. All great holsters. My favorite is made by Kirkpatrick leather in Laredo Texas. I own three and one is the Texas strongside that I use daily and have for many years.
Off the shelf? Hmmmm Galco for leather and probably Blade Tech for Kydex. A lot of folks like Comp-Tac for Kydex but they don't make any IWB holsters for guns with rails. That rules my new Sig out.
Why don't you post what your looking for in the For Sale section with a WTB with model of gun and what type of holster your looking for. We all have lots of holster in the "holster box" and some people might want to sell. Just a thought.
By the way, Highnoon has about 10 different holster for right handers they ship immediately. Hope that helps.:biggrin2:
