IWB Hoslter

[BOOMSTICKHolsters]

Hey folks, here are some pics of my IWB rig. I'm especially proud of this holster design; It took me over a year to get this one the way I wanted it, but I can say that I started from scratch and this is my own design. This particular holster is for an HK45C. It is a two tone Black and Burgundy holster with genuine Elephant accents. I will also be offering Shark and possibly Ostrich accents as well, depending on how sales turn out.

I designed this holster specifically so the butt of the gun stays tight to your body, but you can still get a full grip on the pistol while it's holstered. The angle of draw is adjustable from 11 to 23 degrees, in four degree increments. The snaps are Pull the Dot directional snaps that have a standard button so they are less conspicuous. Because the front of the holster is thin and flexible, the holster will break in quickly and conform to the shape of your body. The outside of the holster is rough out to help hold it in place during use (and allows a smooth-in interior surface to help the pistol draw quick and clean).

The inside layer of the holster is lined with a plastic moisture barrier so sweat can't soak through and corrode your pistol's finish. The leather that is against your body is smooth side out so it won't irritate your skin (I will have protective coverings for the T-nuts soon as well, although none of my testers ever complained about them being uncomfortable).

I just wanted to share some pictures with you guys 'cause I'm so excited to get this holster design finished (now all I have to do is catch up my back log and I can take orders for it). Thanks for looking; comments and questions welcome.

Nice job!!!!

All the thought and planning has paid off in spades. The incremental snap positioning is simple and effective, I would think. The three colors add a nice touch.

Jeff,

Absolutely beautiful holster. You should feel proud. It truly is an original design. I've never seen anything even remotely similar.

That's beautiful, Jeff! I love the color and texture contrasts. That's one that it's easy to say "it's a shame to hide it."

I'd be wearing out the snaps taking it off to show folks. Amazing work.

Absolutely amazing!

How do attach those snaps in conjunction with the t-nuts? Also, where might one find those t-nuts?

McMaster-Carr is an excellent source for holster makers. You can get rubber sheets, rubber washers, t-nuts, screws, and all kinds of other stuff that folks constantly check for around here. Take a look: www.mcmaster.com
