IWB and Combo IWB/OWB now available!

Bluegrass Holsters · April 25th, 2008, 01:58 PM

greetings again....THE disaster left me with a few moments to finish testing the designs for my dedicated IWB and the combo IWB/OWB that I have been working on for several weeks. they are both available now. The price went up slightly on these two holsters due to added time needed to complete each.

Let me introduce:

The Ghost!

A dedicated, non-tuckable, IWB designed to distribute weight of your firearm over a larger surface area allowing the carry of full-size firearms.

The above holster was designed to carry the HK USP 45 Compact Tactical with threaded barrel.

Following on the heals of the Ghost is the "bitter" uncle who wants to be recognized for what he is....a convertible OWB and tuckable IWB holster designed to accommodate three carry modes (OWB, tuckable IWB, and non-tuckable IWB). This holster will be great for those folks wanting a quality leather rig but are short on cash or don't want two holsters....

First the IWB configuration:

note that stainless screw posts are used for lessening the chance of rust development. I advise wiping the posts and lightly buffing with a silicone cloth after each day of IWB wear to reduce the chance or rusting.

OWB Configuration:

The IWB is $75.00 and the convertible design is $80.00....I have not hooked my shopping cart to the website so orders are still taken over the phone. You can email me or PM me with interests or questions. Please include your phone number if you are wanting to order. I will contact you as soon as possible that day or the next. I do not build holsters on Sunday and try to reserve Saturday for my wife, although I may return a call either day.

I am looking forward to comments and/or suggestions!

VERY nice !

It doesn't look like it will work.

I recommend sending me one for an XD9 service, and one for a Kimber Grand Raptor so I can evaluate them and let the forum know for sure if it works or not.

I won't even charge an appraisal fee.

I dunno...

Maybe you had better send me one (4 1/4" 1911) to field test and I'll report back!

Hmmm that ghost looks pretty good. What are your thoughts on it for a Kahr PM9? I am having a problem with a holster with offset loops tipping the gun, but your design looks like it would prevent this.

WOW, that looks very nice. I searching for guns I DON'T yet have holsters for so I can have a reason to buy one!

What's your current wait time?

Right now I can take your order at any time and I will not charge you until just prior to starting the rig. If you ordered today I would start your gear in two to three weeks max. From the date of order until delivery is still typically two weeks....excluding unforeseen circumstances.

I will tell you that I will always give the best possible delivery estimates...this means that I might miss a few. The alternative is to say delivery 30 days from date of charge and know that I could make that promise 90+% of the time. I choose to give the time frame that comes close to the 90 percentile but does not leave me too much room for error (restarting a holster for some reason, illness, etc). If these circumstances occur then I will always strive to keep in touch with the customers, preferable sooner rather than later.

So, if you ordered today you really could have the holster in your hands within 30 days and that includes my current pending orders.

Hope this helps!

That's exactly what I wanted to know. I do have one other question for you though, how difficult would it be to add a little more cant to the holster as a whole? I know that it's adjustable IWB but I'd like more cant in the OWB configuration.

I could do that for you. PM me your phone number so that we can discuss the details.

thanks
