    Clinger's "No-Print Wonder" Holster

    from the looks of the holster (and the way the website is set-up) it appears these are the same as "comfort holsters," without the gel on the back?

    Barrel cleaning

    i was curious to see how clean the bore was, and was a little surprised to see how much gunk came out. no issues, other than I want to protect the steel from rusting, as I would any other barrel.

    Old Faithful Holsters - Opinions?
