Holster Squeek

chaco · September 13th, 2009, 11:05 PM

I have 2 very nice pancake holsters and they both squeek, I'm using a Galco gun belt. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to quite the squeek?

Get boots that squeek louder. Ok, on a more serious note, how long have you had these holsters for? I usually have the squeek dissapear after couple of weeks of wearing the holster.

I've been using them for about 3 months. I usually wear them about 6 hours a day.

The parts of the holster/belt combo that is moving across each other. Does not take a ton to do the job.

I take the gal zip loc bags and put the holster in it and then lay the baby powder to it, work it into all the threads and seams. I do it every month or so.
