Thank you for the details. But now my wife will hate you. I just bought two guns and want to make holsters for them. Now, I have another style holster to make and have to buy a gun for it. I'm thinking a shiny Ruger SR9.
Didn't know you put the stiffener on before the wet molding. I wondered how that was done. So, I assume when tooled, the stiffener is tooled, sew into place, and THEN the holster is wet molded?
And for me, part of my confusion came because I kept thinking the bottom back snap was really a snap instead of a decorative, but solid, structural mounting point.
Very good job. Again, thank you.
BTW, nobody mentioned it but, CONGRATS on the baby! There goes your gun money.
