Members dickf Posted May 5, 2012 Members Report Posted May 5, 2012 Looking for a mold for a railed Sig 1911. I know there are people making holsters for them, so what molds are they using? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! Quote

Any help would be appreciated.Springfield Operator Thanks! Not sure how close it is but the Springfield Operator is close because I have made a holster and used it, if I have the right Sig in mind. The customer was happy with it but not really sure how close of a mold your wanting on the holster. Here is the mold I am talking about Springfield Operator Edited May 6, 2012 by RMB Custom Leather Quote

Here is the mold I am talking about Springfield Operator RMB, the slide is more squared at the top than a traditional 1911, and I'm not sure if there is a standard with the rail. I guess if there's no other option, I'll spring for the Ring's model of the SA. Do you have it in c&l? By the way, your site shows the wrong item # on that gun. Thanks! Quote
Members husker Posted May 6, 2012 Members Report Posted May 6, 2012 I would also be interested in finding something for this. I have been asked to make one for a sig platinum and it is more squared. Quote

Yes here is the C/L http://www.rmbcl.com/item-32087-blue-gun-fspx9105mlcl-springfield-operator-cocked-locked-5/ . Actually the product at the top of the page is some type of page slider of the product before and after the one showing, I am not a fan of that and have removed it once but it now has shown up again after an update.

Members joshk Posted May 8, 2012 Members Report Posted May 8, 2012 I've been trying to find one of the 5" Sig 1911's for almost a year now with no luck.... and now I'm getting requests for the 4" model too.... either Ring's or Duncan's is seriously missing out by not having these..... Quote
RMB Custom Leather Posted May 10, 2012 Report Posted May 10, 2012 I will pass this model onto Blueguns for you. Quote
Members husker Posted May 10, 2012 Members Report Posted May 10, 2012 Also, if enough of us are looking for this one maybe duncan's will make a run of it. Quote
Members Steven Kelley Posted May 10, 2012 Members Report Posted May 10, 2012 I ended up buying a Sig 4.25" with rail and a 5" without rail. I can swap the slides and frames around for the purpose of making holsters for both lengths and rail combinations. I do wish Ring's would add all the Sig 1911 variations to their offerings. Investing in the actual guns gets very expensive. The Sig 1911 is extremely popular. Quote
Members dickf Posted May 11, 2012 Author Members Report Posted May 11, 2012 Wanted to thank everyone who chimed in. Steven, I sent some business your way. Quote

Members BigRiverLeather Posted May 20, 2012 Members Report Posted May 20, 2012 Like this? I had offered a free holster on a local forum to anyone who had a GSR I could use as a mold for an order I had. Turns out one guy that volunteered was a mold maker by profession so he made me a couple. I modified one to be a commander and another to be the commander w/o a rail. I've considered having more made to sell if there is enough interest, but I think they might be kind of pricey at about $50. Quote
Members husker Posted May 20, 2012 Members Report Posted May 20, 2012 I would take one of each if you get enough interest to do it. Quote
Members Tac Posted May 21, 2012 Members Report Posted May 21, 2012 Big River... You need to keep that guys number handy! He did a fantastic job from what I can see from the pictures. Having someone around who can make you molds like that should seriously improve your ability to keep pace with the firearms market. That's and advantage that few custom holster maker shops have. Good on you! -Tac Quote

Members BigRiverLeather Posted May 21, 2012 Members Report Posted May 21, 2012 Well then, I'll dig into it and PM those interested when I find something out. Give me a week or two. Quote
Members dickf Posted May 22, 2012 Author Members Report Posted May 22, 2012 Looks like a winner to me. Let us know. Quote
Members Steven Kelley Posted May 23, 2012 Members Report Posted May 23, 2012 Actually, if available, I would buy two each of 5" w/rail and 5" w/o rail. Quote
Members joshk Posted May 26, 2012 Members Report Posted May 26, 2012 I'm definitely interested as well.... please let us know when you have more info.... Quote
