Members Shorts Posted April 30, 2008 Members Report Posted April 30, 2008 I am having one minor problem with these holsters and would like everyone's advice. When re-holstering the gun, the front side of the cylinder hangs up on the upper outer lip of the molded portion of the holster (the reinforced part). I initially molded this so that it didn't catch. Is there a way to get around this? Any advice would be appreciated. Hmm, interesting. Thinking it over, it seems that even trimming the height on that front area would still catch, as the cylinder, regardless of the height of the holster would still have to pass by the edge. Just taking wild stabs, what about molding the shape of the cylinder into the area it hits?...extend the cylinder mold all the way to the top (I realize that option may decrease retention a bit. Another idea, add a slight cant to the holster. I have found on a holste I made for the Springfield that the gun catches the lips of the holster upon reholstering. I've found it a bit frustrating as it's dinging up the leather pretty good. I think it is doing that because that holster does not have a cant to it, at least, not as much as others I have made. Just throwing out random ideas. Quote
