Nice review... I think that extra leather BEYOND the barrel end actually helps with stability, I also agree with the top coat comments. I really like mine, but noticed my loops do not have the sitching at all.. I guess I ordered the standard package... seeing yours makes me wish I would have had a longer conversation with them...that brown on black does look good....
Here is mine...

I can not remember the specifics of the order but I did a full review and side by side comparision with a VMII here....

I went with the M11 simply due to the fact that Tony did not have a blank to make me a VMII for a micro compact with rail... In the end I found another good holster maker that will get more of my business... Thanks again for posting your comments...
