Some Personal Rigs, Sig P238

Recommended Posts

My LGS is going out of business and I got a deal I could not pass up on a Sig P238 Scorpion. Took it out last weekend and broke it in. I absolutely love this little pistol! Well, with a new carry gun I need some new gear. So I worked these in with some orders I was working on.

Gratuitous pistol pic.

First, a pocket set. I plan on carrying this in my back, right pocket occasionally. So this looks a bit different than most pocket holsters. The hook is on the slide side so it will catch on the way out. Borrowed the design idea from Dwight and wrapped it from the trigger side. Worked out pretty well. Made it pretty wide on the bottom to stay upright in the wide pockets on my Wranglers. Made a sheath for the extra mag to keep the grime out of it too.

Then to the OWB Avenger. I figured a small gun needed to take up less real estate on the belt. And I have been wanting to do the brown with Ostrich for a while but it was a bit overkill for the Glock. Works well with the Scorpion though. I'm very happy with how this came out. Got the back belt slot a bit too close and it's tight enough I don't even need the trailing belt loop. Not a lot of real estate back there and I cut things a bit too close. But it should break in a bit soon enough. Wearing it now BTW.

Ahhh, the smell of a new gun and new leather!

Lol. After making rigs for G19's and full size 1911's, I chuckle when dealing with the little guns. Cute is a good word for them.

Nice stuff Chief. When I do a mottle look, they ask me what went wrong :).

It's become my trademark at this point. First one was a mistake, that I liked a lot. The only color I dye solid is black. But then again, most folks see pics and know what's coming.

Looks really nice. If I might ask, what thread did you use? I really like the look of the stitching.

Thanks guys.

Fitch, got it from Tippmann. It's their Natural in size 346. Even though I hand stitch, I've been using the Tippmann thread and really like it. I can take off what I need and get less waste than with the smaller 25 yard cards I was using.

Thanks! That looked very nice. Needle and thread information is hard for a total new guy to figure out from pictures.
