    Nope, enough for another holster and maybe some bling on a few more.

    Kahr K9 NYPD trade in $299

    Just read through the thread. For those who want to convert this to the smooth and light elite trigger, you simply need to buy the elite trigger parts. Did this to my old K40 Covert. Everything was drop-in. There are plenty of how-tos on the web if you do a search.

    Kahr K9 NYPD trade in $299

    Switched name servers the other day and something got screwed up. I have corrected it but it could take a few hours to propagate to other name servers. Yes, I own a CW9. The main differences are the flutes cut into the side of the K9 and P9 do not exist on the CW9, the CW9 has a traditional...

    Keep in mind Ken, you paid for the skin so there was no exotic premium. My current prices can be found on my web site.

    My Crossbreed Supertuck is Noisy

    You're hearing the leather rubbing against either your firearm or the hardware attached to the leather panel. Try a bit of parafin wax everywhere metal meets leather. Lightly rub it on, DO NOT melt it in.

    roughing up smooth out holster leather?

    The most likely culperate is the belt. The belt mentioned is reinforced with a polymer strip to prevent rollover, but this usually offers only minor resitance to slouching. My 5.11 belt is built the same way and full-framed guns were uncomfortable. Changing to a well made all leather gun belt...

    a holster for every gun

    I was? Oh crap... Memory loss was one of the side effects, wasn't it?! Oh crap... Oh crap... Seriously though, Pete, Sam is right on the money. You can test this out yourself by doing a one handed chambering/clearing drill on your belt/holster (with an empty gun or dummy rounds PLEASE)...

    Conceal and Carry my 92fs

    For a plastic holster, that setup can work, but the single point mount will be unstable in a leather holster (and eventually in the plastic variety as well). If you like that style and want it in leather, in an OWB design you would want to go with something similar to what sharpsdressedman...

    Need a holster for a 1911 with a TALL front sight.

    This is a common issue with some revolver holsters where the original had fixed "battle" sights and the more expensive models had adjustable sights that dwarfed the originals. A no frills leather holster from one of us small guys will run you between $50 and $100. Increasing the sight channel...

    New CC leather holster for Colt 1911

    Nice looking holster. May want to consider doubling up on the belt next time. I think you will find it will sag in the next few months.

    Homebrew holsters made by me,show me what you have made! LONG POST and many pic's!

    Older thread I'll resurrect for a bit of insight. I do this as a part-time business but do not consider myself any sort of expert and these are just my humble opinions. When designing a holster three things need to be considered and should be considered in this order: 1) Safety 2) Function...

    May I recommend something like this: I carry my Kahr CW9 in a similar holster daily.
