I like the double stitching closer to the body, what I'm not overly fond of yet is that the sweat shield and reinforced area kind of bulge out and is thicker in terms of width away from the body, compared to the VMII.
But for the price being under $70 with a 3 week wait, it's hard to complain.
The leather itself is pretty darn good, with only one slight imperfection on the sweat sheild.
The curved sweat shield is nice for getting a firm grip from the draw, however, as it as not as tightly molded as the VMII, it's not as C&L friendly as you actually have to get your thumb in between the sweat shield and the firearm to get a high-thumb grip, and get your thumb on top of the safety, on the VMII my thumb will ride between the shield and my body and fall right to the safety after drawing.
Oh well, you'll get what I'm saying after I take the pics tomorrow or Friday.
Overall I am very pleased with the workmanship holster and the quick turnaround time, but as is the case with holsters, only time worn will tell the true tale. |
So here's the pics finally.
Here's the VMII on the left, with the TT on the right.
Again the VMII on the left the TT on the right, you can slightly the difference in overall thickness in this shot.
VMII (L) TT (R) Here you can definitely see the difference in thickness.
VMII (R) TT (L) Here you can see the differences in the sweat shield
This is a close up of the reinforced band in the opening of the VMII, still pretty sleek.
Here's a close up of the TT reinforced opening, not too bad, but you can see where the band is protruding a little bit. the over all shape of the opening is what's causing the TT rig to be thicker, looking back at the first picture, you can see that the band rides higher on the TT rig, and adds more to the thickness.
Over all it's not a bad rig for the price, and a 3 week wait isn't bad but I'll stick to my VMII.
