New holster

gunnerdd2 · January 11th, 2009, 02:57 PM

Here is a new holster I'm working on . This I guess is a proto type. @ changes I'm making is a longer kydex to completely cover the barrell and the cant will be a little more to ease on drawing the gun. So far its very comfortable. have worn it about 3 weeks now . Gun almost feels like a derrianger on my hip.. Hope you enjoy..

It looks good. How is the draw on it?

this one was easy to draw but a little tricky reholstering. The new one looks just like this but the cant is about 3 degrees more and is a big differance in draw and reholstering.the klydex is longer so I can carry my full size kimber in it.I extended the belt loops further out so as to dissapate the weight more.so far it makes a 5" kimber feel like 2 ounces....

Looks very promising. But may I suggest you cut out some of the leather from around the grip? Would certainly make for an easier draw and take out some of the overall bulk.

the extra leather is there to keep the butt of the gun from laying on your skin.Had a problem with my other holster in the summertime letting the handle of the gun rubbing my skin when I sweated. the sweat rubbed the finish off the handle.the holster is very cool in the summer and doesn't let the moisture from your body get to the gun.It is very easy to draw and reholster the gun. the new one I made has about 3 degrees more forward cant to it. the kydex is rough side in .
