Source for wide belt clips

[MACKEL]

I am in the process of designing my first IWB holster, and the widest belt clip I can find is 7/8". Does anyone know of a source of wider clips? It seems like this would add to the stability of the holster.

You might check with WRB holsters. Thay make nylon stuff, but they might be willing to sell clips. The ones I've see are about 1.25 inches wide. I can't remember web address, but it should come up on google. They are in Gun Barrell City, Tx.

Have you found your clips?

[MACKEL]

Thanks to everyone for your help, I now have several good leads and I am certain I will be able to get what I am looking for.

Thanks again for your great responses-

albest clips:

sharp edges, uneven temper, less appealing curves, uneven powder coat finish.

often powder coat clips come with traces of rust.

on the other hand, CDL spring (larry leatherman) makes high grade near perfect clips.

Bianchi, Galco, Mitch Rosen...just about every known big holster name uses his clips.

Never had that problem with the clips I've ordered from Albest. I've used/ordered approximately 500 of their clips on my holsters over the past few years.

its good you've had success with albest

so far i have never had any good success with them.

have you tried CDL clips? I suspect if you did, you'd never go back.

you might pay a bit more, but quality is great.

I use approx a case of CDL clips (1,000) every 2 months-and only found about 4 that I would consider rejects...

Glad to hear you're happy with your source for clips. Good luck to you.
