Bought a mint and what appears to be unfired 1971 hi power. What are y’all’s recommendations for a high end leather holster/belt rig. I’m thinking like bbq gun.

I'm looking for a zero-degree cant IWB holster with loops/clips fore and aft.  (If that's not a clear description, think Bravo Concealment IWB).  I cannot for the life of me find anyone that makes a no cant IWB without the loops on the body of the gun for a Hi-Power.  Anyone got leads?

Oh I bet if you were to contact Dave at Ronin Leather Holsters that he could do something for you.

Honestly I wouldn't carry that lovely 1971 beer can sighted Hi-Power with original rug. Nah....... not for me. Find yourself a reliable beater then start looking for holster plumbers. Plus you didn't state how you wanted to carry it? Over the years I was very partial to Andy Arratoonian at Horseshoe Holsters in Great Britain. From Andy I still have a shoulder and belt slide OWB holster w/leather carriers that I cherish when I carry a BHP. And I also have a Kramer IWB #2 in horsehide when Greg was a little shop back in early 90's. Wes at Privateer is another individual I'd deal with in a heartbeat. The stage is yours OP, find what you need. But please purchase another BHP for carry instead of the one posted in your picture.....

Well, he said BBQ gun, so I'm guessing that if it ever gets carried it'll be in a custom rig, and only for special occasions...not an EDC piece.

Skipped over the BBQ since I'm not up on firearm acronyms. Good, glad it's not going to be an every day carry firearm.

Why do you want to carry a barbecue gun IWB?  I thought the whole point of a BBQ gun was to show it off?

I never said anything about IWB that doesn't even make sense.

Very nice Brackeen! All matching which is very GQ in my book. Honestly, I thought BBQ was for barbeque i.e. eating off the grill.... Ha! But you did well on this rig.

Yep. I have been carrying my Hi Power the last couple of weeks in a Milt Sparks holster. For a gun that size with a quality holster and a quality belt it's really almost like it's not there

Ok I’m looking hard at the Kramer.  Owb fbi open carry.  Question I have is I just got a Springfield SA35.  I’m taking it that it’s identical to the Browning HI Power when it’s holster selecting.  I emailed Kramer  and waiting for there reply.  I’m 99.9% sure it is.  But at $140 I want to be double sure on it.  I know it’s so new it’s not listed under Springfield yet.  But at 10-12 week wait on a Kramer ,I like to get it ordered.  Here she is.
