Holster for Colt Commander

A recent holster I made for a Colt Commander with a laser sight under the barrel.

Looks good, your tooling held up well to the forming.

Very nice! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you!  I'd had some issues in the past with the tooling losing its shape during forming and this time I only moistened the inside, then wrapped a pistol in plastic wrap and wore the holster all day with the pistol in it.  i also didn't completely form the holster to the pistol so I wouldn't loose too much tooling.

You did great saving the tooling!

You can "mold" the back some to help get some retention spots.
