Grumpy old guy here: IF in a real pinch, you can find all of the dimentions for the shooter in question on-lne. From that you can make a minimal wooden dummy that will work. The dummy ain't pretty, but it will allow you to mold the thing.... no boning however. Basically all you need for an auto pistol is the length, height and width of the slide and the width, shape and location of the trigger guard. Don't need the grip. An EXACT sized photo copy can be made with a little playing around with size option on the copier.... so that a patern can be drawn and assist in locating the trigger guard on the wooden form. I've done it on a couple of occasions with good success ....... the customer paid for the extra work. Mike . Quote

Members Big O Posted October 31, 2011 Members Report Posted October 31, 2011 I have access to a HiPoint in .40, since my stepson, against my advice, bought one. And I have a Glock 22. I'm nowhere near Wisconsin, but I have it on good authority that the postal service delivers there...... How "custom" does your friend want the holsters? Quote
