The metal clips from Tandy are about $2 so in my opinion $14 is pricey. When you are making holsters all those little costs add up, that was my reason for suggesting making them, and once you get it right you will save money in the long run.

No arguments here on that one. If I was in the business, then I would be looking for the best ones I could find that fit my application and match the quality of product I was making. It may be $14 clip or a $2 clip...depends on the product.

Now this is just my .02 cents worth but I won't buy or use Tandy metal clips for any holsters. They are cheap knock offs from China ( I've heard ) and they will break. When I build holsters I buy Comp-Tac clips for my customers. Tuckers are nice clips also.

PM sent.

Rhome: Yes, the Tandy ones just aern't the quality that are used by holster makers now. They are also an old design that just don't work as well. Not to forget to mention the shiney nickle finish.
