    Best bang for the bucks

    I found out by accident a few years ago that as a holster maker gun manufactures offer me a very good discount. I had thought I had made some good buys before then, but now I realize they were not as good as I thought. Also, now that I have my FFL, I can get some pretty good deals too. But...

    XDS

    Here is my recent Croatian! Double stack .45 compact. 10 round mag and a 13 round extended mag. Fairly easy to hide with the 10 round shorter grip. 10 + 1 or 13+1 of .45 not too shabby.

    Yep, made where the stamp says. Great guns, I have several of them. Great shooters and very reliable. Great customers service a well if ever needed.

    Holy snakes alive!!!!! What a rattler!!!

    I'm not sure. Snake is hard to work with and especially when burnishing the edges. If I had to guess I'd think the rig would be 200-300 maybe more. I would likely not even attempt it. I had a local customer bring me a snake he killed and wanted me to use it on a holster. He was the one that...

    The new Remora halftop

    One thing I would do is sew it and not use staples. I would sew it whete he has the staples and 1/4 inch from the cut edges too. I would think a regular sewing machine would sew it or get an over sized needle with some nylon thread and hand sew.

    Debunking a couple of myths - new blog posts

    Do you feel the same if the holster is in the pocket? My guess is that the majority of those that have your holster pocket carry. I'm a proponent of a New York reload. Forget the extra mag. Then you don't have to figure out where to carry the mag.

    Ok, finally a pocket gun trainer!!!!!!!!!!

    I don't practice all the stuff I see. But at the same time, the stuff I see (different training scenarios) makes me think and learn from them, even though I don't practice everything. For example, rather than trying to draw faster standing still in a Tueller Drill, I can move to give me more...

    Ok, finally a pocket gun trainer!!!!!!!!!!

    Good video on Tueller drill and how movement can help. Also notice the good situational awareness when he notices the placement of the hand. http://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=jwHYRBNc9r8&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DjwHYRBNc9r8 These Best Defense videos are good. I watch the show all the time on...

    Ok, finally a pocket gun trainer!!!!!!!!!!

    Actually 3 seconds can get you killed. The Tueller Drill shows that an attacker with a knife can travel 21 ft. In about 1.5 seconds. 3 seconds for 3-10 ft is way to long for an attacker. You can also gain some slight advantage/time by moving if attacked. Also with good situational awareness...

    POLL: When will the ammo shortage end?

    Easy. All of them! Of course many are setting new records as they sell everything they get. So businesses are not necessarily affected financially. They would of course like to have more product and make even more $$$, but that is not happening. The end users are affected the most.

    Oiled leather question?????

    Looks pretty good to me. If it works you leave as is and use it. If you want to try and make black, it might make it not work and look ugly. I would select door number 1.

    POLL: When will the ammo shortage end?

    Talked to a major wholesaler and they told me manufactures tell them I will take at least a year for them to try and get caught up on orders.
