I even found a picture of one in one of his many galleries, an experiment I guess, but alas he says he won't make one.
It's a shame too because he has some burgundy colored stingray skin that I'd love to have on a holster but for some reason I just can't get excited about his regular pancake. And I gave up on Askins type scabbards long ago because they're too difficult for me to put on. In the end I had to go with another maker, but I still hope to have some of Eric's leather eventually.

Hi N-frame,
I emailed him yesterday, and so I know the answer now. Thanks for the comment.
I have an Alessi CQC/S on order (Aug 08), but have no idea when it may arrive.
I have also wanted a holster by 5 Shot, but the 6 months or so wait discourages me. I may have the Alessi by then. My Def-Con is an incredible holster, but I would like a snap holster.
Thanks for the comment and info.
Regards,
Jerry
