Buying my Marine son an M9 for a suprise birthday present. I also need a holster where on the net can I get an issue surplus or similar holster? Thanks for the help..... Semper Fi |

The M12 holster works great for what ist is designed to do, retain the pistol. Having said that, when it comes time to draw the pistol...problems arise. The metal loop that keeps the flap closed has a tendency to get hung up on the stron hand during the draw stroke. If you look at the nightly news, nobody (I mean NOBODY) is carrying the issue holster. Seems that all I see on the tube are drop leg tac. holsters. Quite a change from when I was there years ago...times change I guess. Anyway, just my 2cents ka |
| I stuck with a M12 holster but with some of the nice add ons. The thumb break and shoulder rig from Bianchi, and a drop leg adapter from Specter Gear really update the issue holster, I can wear it low with BDU, clipped to web gear, or the shoulder rig for with flight suit, very versatile. |
