[quote=lance22;724173]I'd think every reputable holster craftsman would have been making for the PM45 for at least a year.
Lance, If holster makers, don't have a mold for a particular model of pistol, we have to use the actual pistol to design and mold the holster. If the customer is close by, taking the pistol for a day or so is usually not a problem. Getting a customer to ship his pistol to a complete stranger so that this stranger can build him a holster is most often out of the question.
Companys like Rings Blue guns make plastic molds for several popular pistols.
If a particular model mold is available, we buy it. If a particuler model mold is not available, were forced to purchase the actual pistol or not be able to fill customer requests for that model holster.
In the case of the Kahr PM45, there are no plastic pistol molds available. Like me, the few custom makers currently making custom holsters for the Kahr PM45 are using their own pistols for the design and molding. I carry my Kahr off duty and as a backup to my duty weapon as an LEO. I would never be able to justify spending $600.00 for a pistol for the sole purpose of building a few holsters. I hopeing one day, the Kahr PM45 will become popular enough so that the mold manufactors will produce molds for that pistol.
