Holster Noise

Got a great looking Milt Sparks VMII for an officers model the other day. I don't know if I am just being paranoid, but it seems to make noise. In general does anyone else notice this? Is it just paranoia? I assume it will eventually go away. Thanks in advance.

Your gun will make a lot more noise

Frankly, it is not something of concern to me.

Perhaps if you narrow down the 'noise' thing a bit?
...is it a light squeak...
...do you hear music...
...just a general leather rub...
...or something else...

I'm sure that a little baby powder can eliminate it.

Just squeaking. I assume it is just a normal breaking in process.

Yep, like retsupt99 said, a little baby power works.

Baby powder or a light coat of candle wax will work. Don't forget the areas on the belt where the holster sits.

When I get a new holster mine do that too. After I wear it a few times it stops.
