newfiebackflip Report post Posted February 16, 2011 Good day leather workers, I am looking for a supplier for steel spring clips or spring steel clips or whatever you would like to call them. I know Tandy sells them but they are far to expensive, I am not looking to mass produce products by any means just would rather get a whack of them for cheap compared to $4 a pop. Attached is a picture for reference. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rayban Report post Posted February 24, 2012 Is this place still in business? I emailed them a week ago with no response. I tried calling them and the number is not in service. I can't tell you if they are still alive or not....back when I posted that (a year ago) I was buying from them...then they quit replying to my phone calls and email and orders, so I gave up on them. My guess is that my orders where smaller than they wanted to deal with, but it would have been ok with me if they would have just told me as much.

There has to be somebody out there that has a similar selection. I've been looking but only find one or two styles. I'm looking for something like this - it looks like it would lock on to pants without a belt pretty good. A request by a customer EDIT: Either of the top two clips EDIT AGAIN: I dialed the wrong number, got through to voice mail Edited February 25, 2012 by BigRiverLeather Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sixer Report post Posted March 3, 2012 (edited) Good luck.... I've scoured the intraweb with no luck at all in finding a good SUPPLIER. JRM is a waste of time... I literally talked to the lady there and confirmed that she recieved my faxed order. She told me that she would call me back with a total ASAP. That was 6-8 months ago... I mean seriously. At least do me the courtesy of telling me that you guys have no idea how to run a business and that I should look elsewhere. Anyhow, I still find it hard to believe that somebody out there isn't making these clips... or at least have a website of some kind. There has to be somebody out there that has a similar selection.

NoName Report post Posted March 4, 2012 I tried recently to order from JRM. I called and talked to a real person only to find that they want to sell by the thousand. They would be happy to send me a free sample but only on a single basis.... sure would like to get a couple dozen of the #3006 in black! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steelhawk Report post Posted March 4, 2012 I've tried to order from JRM several times as well and got nowhere. I haven't found what I want anywhere else, either. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trevor Report post Posted March 4, 2012 Hey Guys Ive always got my clips from this supplier. use the slim ones for phone cases and radio pouches and the bigger ones for other stuff.

NoName Report post Posted March 5, 2012 If you are willing to buy 250 at a time, theclip.com does a good quantity discount. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigRiverLeather Report post Posted March 20, 2012 UPDATE: I talked to the fine folks at JRM and there was no issue ordering a small quantity of clips, at least if it was a clip they had in stock which for me happened to be the 3007 (see chart above, top right. I ordered 30 clips at .90 eachwith the powder coat finish (.15 more than than the less durable black oxide) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BigRiverLeather Report post Posted March 20, 2012 Did you ask them if they had a problem answering phone calls and email messages? Since they were curtious and had what I wanted at a good price, I took the high road. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UncleGeorge Report post Posted July 31, 2012 (edited) Since they were curtious and had what I wanted at a good price, I took the high road. Did you receive your order? How were the clips? Sturdy enough for heavy pistol? Thanks, Uncle George Edited July 31, 2012 by UncleGeorge Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigRiverLeather Report post Posted July 31, 2012 The product I received was top notch. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again. They would support heavy pistols very well assuming they were properly affixed to the holster by the maker. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
