Members Matt Alsaker Posted December 19, 2012 Members Report Posted December 19, 2012 I'm looking for suggestions on how to "clean up" the edges the rail has on this FNH 57. Basically, I think I want to fill in the gap between the rails so that when I mold the holster it molds smooth along the rail. When molding the current holster (and first one for this firearm) I found small ridges the rail made inside the holster. As it is now, I'm pretty convinced the real firearm is going to scrap along the inside of the holster tearing the leather. I was thinking of putting small wood blocks made to fit better the rails so everything is smooth. Will contact cement hold small pieces of wood to the Bluegun? Quote

Members George B Posted December 19, 2012 Members Report Posted December 19, 2012 I use PC-7 epoxy paste, mix it, put it on, let it cure for 24 hours then sand it down to what you want. Dries harder than the blue gun plastic and will last forever, maybe. Have to wait a few days to see if forever is coming after the end of the Mayan calander doomsday prophecy. Quote
Members Driften Posted December 19, 2012 Members Report Posted December 19, 2012 One thing to remember is if later you need to mold a holster with a laser or light attached to that rail you will have to dig out the filler or something to make it work..... Quote
Members Matt Alsaker Posted December 20, 2012 Author Members Report Posted December 20, 2012 The JB Weld worked great. I just sanded it down and it worked perfect. Thanks. JB Weld Putty Sticks. http://www.jbweld.co...y-putty-sticks/ Quote
