sooper, thanks for the heads up.. ill test that method

We have been playing with different bonding agents to bond thin leather to the inside of the kydex to help protect the finish of the gun

check out alternate force www.alternateforce.net they have a large variety of blue guns

My company makes hot pink kydex holsters full kydex OWB holsters and Hybrid ( Kydex and leather) in both IWB and OWB

I have a Sig Tac Ops 1911 that i use to make my holster molds....

No Name, I get our screws, and finishing washers from Old Faithful Holsters.. he sells bulk quantities.. I usually order then 100 at a time. I can dig around and find a picture of that holster being worn... and yes, we have played with linning the kydex with leather.. its hard to get anything to stick... but we have played with different options.. just none of them have worked well. this is what the holster looks like being worn... this is NOT where we recommend wearing the holster as a fall backwards could cause severe injury, we only placed the holster there for this picture This is another holster we made recently.. and yes, we tested it many many times before we picked the final position of the gun/magazine.. and when worn on the hip, the gun clears the magazine

Yes we have played with using a smaller bit. Makes the stitching process much harder to the point we are tearing up the thread getting it through the holes. We are playing with options to line the kydex with leather. But no luck yet

Ive only been making holsters for a year now..We originally started out making just kydex "tactical OWB" holsters, but very quickly transitioned into hybrid holsters as well. In this picture, the holster isnt complete, we still had stitching to do, but I am very pleased with the way it turned out.

very nice!!
