Would you buy a pistol to fit a holster you owned?

[ms6852]

No, it is like buying a specific car just because you have a set of tires that were given to you.

I would not buy a gun to fit a holster unless a particular gun that I coincidentally wanted happened to be a right fit.

 

[Sauer Grapes]

Lol! Probably not. I was going to sell one of my handguns, but then I would have a holster with no gun...lol It can be a vicious cycle.

I have an HK USP compact holster (bought cause it fit a P07 I no longer own) that I woulf love to fill with said USP.

Problem is they are so danged pricy and the wife thinks I own too many 9mms

"too many" ? Is that even possible?

 

[JR24]

"too many" ? Is that even possible?

She seems to think so, but I disagree!

That's putting some real onus on a holster we know nothing about

Well, the OP already told us "it is a very nice cross-draw". Given that he must like the holster, he's already considering buying a gun
which fits it.

A nice holster won't guarantee a useable holster. You can spend $20,000 on a nice saddle that won't do a lick to keep you planted for 8 seconds.

I guess what I'm asking is if "very nice" means already tested by the OP and found to be superior in function or something else. I have very nice rifles that I can't shoot trap with and great screwdrivers that never turn a nail.
