Members StoveStoker Posted February 3, 2016 Members Report Posted February 3, 2016 Well my first holster. Used the JLS pattern and modified it for my colt compact 1911. Critics welcome. Quote
Members Dwight Posted February 3, 2016 Members Report Posted February 3, 2016 I've never been a fan of thumb breaks, . . . but my 1911's (so far) are Commander and full size, . . . they squeeze down in and don't wiggle out. But I do really like it overall, . . . May God bless, Dwight Quote
Members StoveStoker Posted February 3, 2016 Author Members Report Posted February 3, 2016 (edited) Thank you for the positive comments. The thumb break is something I wanted to try just for an added measure of security. Not sure how many have ever used a public men's room. You go to have a seat and your expensive fire arm slips the holster and clatters across the floor. This happened on a few occasions with an expensive milt sparks holster. Going to wear it and see how she rides. I am going to do some draw drills this weekend. I need to work on my edges more. And the edge Kote I used peeled the first time. I read some will dye the edges and then re-burnish with bees wax. Also lots of tool marks. Maybe practice will make the next one cleaner. Edited February 3, 2016 by StoveStoker Quote
