I've made several of those for PM Makarovs.  Same for mag and flashlight carriers.

PM Makarov IWB holster.  Design relies on as single sheet of kydex just folded over several times.  Lighter weight.  Several types of hooks used ie under, over with wings for tabs.  Learning process on which side of kydex goes in/out (textured/shiney) and rounding corners.

Mag carriers when I first started making them.  Another advantage of this design is that it takes minimal belt space.  Several can be worn.  Kydex tab along spine of magazine can be reheated to add or less tension.

Blade-tech used to make their stuff like that.  I've got an old paddle holster for a G19 that is made that way.  They sometimes crack at the bend used to make the belt loop or paddle.

Those are nice, and the price is very good. Are they good writers?

I always thought that a fountain pen would make a better impromptu weapon than any "tactical" pen

They write very well. It’s not a Montblanc, but it’s still very enjoyable.

I think of John Wick… “a fooking pencil”

Haven't seen one of those in a long time.

Wonderful slide to frame fitment.  

How's the trigger on yours?

@mcculver5

The trigger is not bad. This Sigma was shipped out in August of '94, right before the Clinton AWB was enacted and a few years before the GLOCK v. S&W lawsuit was settled with Big Blue changing the trigger as part of thr out of court settlement.

It measures about 9lbs in weight and feels much more like a DAO SIG P226, prior to the SRT Kits or DAK guns. Pretty much a DA Revolver pull, with just a little more sponginess due to it being a striker fired gun.

Simple holster for a simple gun. Just keep the spare mag in the back pocket.

I think the last time I picked one up was in the early 90s in Atlanta.  

My prior experience was with DA revolvers, Beretta, and 1911s.  I thought the trigger was gross.  

I hear the newer ones sent over seas were better. But haven't ever messed with one.

The trigger is not great by any means, but it isn't VP70Z or CZ-100 level bad. The later production ones had bad triggers since part of the court settlement was S&W change the trigger.

S&W wants every single one of those off the streets. The pot metal used to make them is BAD. Like, blow up in your hand and lose fingers bad.

I didn't say they were great, and I don't know where any are at just saying the idea overall was ahead of its time. LOL

The above 2 holsters really show the difference between a well designed aiwb holster and a generic one.

The sig looks like it's in a jmcustom aiwb. Look at the smooth rounded edges. Beautiful. Then we have a Glock with sharp corners on that edge. Especially with a wml that edge needs to be rounded down.

It is amazing how much some very minor changes in design and finishing can make a big difference in both comfort and concealability.
