Members cleanview Posted December 11, 2014 Members Report Posted December 11, 2014 Fixing to order two blue guns ..... one of which is the xds Looking and a little research and it seems like the xds 9 is what I would wand and then I could mold a 45 off of it. Yes or no Thanks Quote Amarillo Texas bambamholsters.com

Members Ken G Posted December 12, 2014 Members Report Posted December 12, 2014 The XDS is made in two barrel lengths, 3.3" and 4.0". You can probably make a holster for the 3.3" with the longer mold gun but it may be more difficult making a 4" holster with a 3.3" mold. Quote
Members chiefjason Posted December 12, 2014 Members Report Posted December 12, 2014 The difference in the real guns is the wall thickness of the barrel. The 9mm has a thicker barrel to work inside the same frame as the .45. FWIW, the 3.3 has been more popular for me. The 4.0 is more hit or miss. Quote
Members cleanview Posted December 13, 2014 Author Members Report Posted December 13, 2014 I have been taking profits back into supplies and there are no ends to blue gun needs. So I am getting some off the more popular. Two that makes one is better than one that makes one. Quote Amarillo Texas bambamholsters.com
Members Itch Posted December 13, 2014 Members Report Posted December 13, 2014 I just went to do a count on my molds 91, some are doubles with lasers ,some are pieces of old firearms. AS we mostly specialize in semi autos we only have about 7 or so revolvers.. Quote Quality leather goods www.captain-itch.com www.Tennesseeholstercompany.com
Members Shooter McGavin Posted December 14, 2014 Members Report Posted December 14, 2014 The ejection port of the 9mm is shorter than the ejection port of the 45. Also the mags are different. Quote Zlogonje Gunleathers
