I received this today from Ray's Holsters. If you do a quick google search for him you'll find him. The holster is called a "Shado" They don't make one just for the Baby Desert Eagles but this one fits very well. It has an ajustable snap and is somewhat well made. I can't compare it to my Del Santis, it's just better made and has higher quality leather. The Shado is made in South Africa. I'm sure it will last long enough for me.
My BDE is a 9mm with the 3.9" barrel. It's the semi-compact version. It fits well in the Glock 17 Holster that you see here. For $35 it was worth a quick holster for me.

IMI does import parts from Tangfolio for the Baby Eagle and that's why they came up with the new Barak pistol which uses the same magazines as the Baby Eagle. Fortunately the Barak has a frame safety which John Browning designed instead of the Walther slide safety. I don't know why they used the slide safety either, it reminds me of the time Ford decided to place the horn on the left turn signal instead of the steering wheel hub. People complained the Ford should put the horn back where G-d intended it to be. John Browning knew that G-d intended the safety to be frame mounted. http://www.israel-weapon.com/default.asp?catid={7C279A3A-323B-43D3-9CB0-7760B0201828} Israel Weapon Industries is a former division of IMI which makes small arms. My friend also has a Baby Eagle polymer and had the same problem with stovpiping until I showed him how to properly grip his pistol. For a while he wanted to trade me for my streel framed Baby Eagle until he learned to properly grip his pistol. |

Im having a littlle trouble finding out what kind of Jericho I have when I look at the front line catalog. As we all know its hard finding a holster for a baby eagle, but its even harder to find a subcompact .45ACP compatable holster.
Anyone have one for their subcompact eagle and a holster their happy with? M.Vargas |

I don't know if I mentioned this yet but...
...my Baby Desert Eagle fits very well into a OWB holster made for the XP-40. The main difference between these guns (as far as the holster fit is concerned) is the angle of the front of the trigger guard. BDE:  XD-40:  As you can see, the XD has about a 5 degree angle on the front of the trigger guard; the BDE is vertical. Something to keep in mind when ordering a CCW rig! I mentioned this to the owner at Crossbreed Holsters and he was able to sell me a holster. (edited for clarity) |

Hey all
Just picked up a MR Baby Eagle .45 ACP, love the way it fits my hand, seems real accurate too. My only gripe is the magazines - they're 10 rounders, and I'm darn lucky if I can get 6 in em, 7 if I really feel like bustin my knuckles. What gives? Took them apart, and they don't look dirty at all. Ran a rag thru to get what little dust there was out, and am getting the same results. I was able to get 8 in once, and then after feeding a couple out, the rest stayed down in there holding the spring compressed somehow. Aftermarkets any better? |

I have also gone to the front line site ( thanks for that post by the way), and am also having trouble figuring which Jericho model number equals the MR9915R 9mm... All the paperwork that came with my weapon says it is a Jericho wR.... the front line site has multiple models listed but none of the model designations match. Is it the F, the FBL, or the FL?

Has anyone considered the fact that the BE may fit in a Serpa for the XD? pistolgear.com/proddetail.php?prod=16BHA&cat=7 My BE will be here soon. Does anyone have an XD, sub compact .45 BE and a Serpa? If so, someone should try this. I know I'd like to have a Serpa since I want to get into IPSC once my BE gets here. I'd buy one, but if it didn't fit, I'd have no use for it. I don't have an XD. Yet. |

Wouldn't it just make more sense to get one made for the gun. Why a Serpa? The BladeTech and FIST or any number of holsters mentioned in this thread would work fine especially if the main use of the holster is competition shooting. |

I was checking the Frontline web site and am now a little confussed. What are initials after Jericho?
ex: JERICHO FS Com, JERICHO F, JERICHO FBL, Jericho FL, JERICHO FSL Com I have a full sized metal frame and a semi compact poly frame. I am mainly looking for a holster for the metal frame gun. Both 9mm. I have heard that other gun holsters will fit the BDE but am unsure which ones will fit the full sized one. So far I am leaning toward the Fist holster that in inside and outside the waist band and add a thumb break. Has anyone used there holsters any thoughts on quality? I have checked with every site listed in this thread. If there are other sites or manufacturers out there please let me know. Any info would be great and much appreciated!!! |

I thought those were custom jobs as I don't see these offered from Magnum Research directly. I just bought almost new Baby Eagle for fairly low price and was going to get it stainless steel finished through fordsguns.... http://fordsguns.com/ later on for $230...... |

It's not stainless steel, but carbon steel that has been hard chromed I actually was just able to pick one up in 45 in like new condition last week for around 600. If you go several pages in on the magnum research website in the baby eagle section you'll find that they offer the guns new in that finish for $800 and up just like the big desert eagle.

Just wanted to chime in. I ordered my Frontline holster a month or so back and got it a few weeks ago. I am very happy with it, very well build and comfortable. I have my Baby eagle 9mm in it. I see a few questions about which one to order, your best bet is to just call Mollie and tell her what you have. That is what i ended up doing and she took good care of me. I think i paid 42 bucks with shipping. Not bad for a very nice leather IWB holster if you ask me. I will try and get some pics up.

Frame should be the same size on the guns if they are both fullsize so it should fit. When I had my BE I used to run it in a Specter gear drop leg that was for the 92 and it worked fine. |

Hi all, just stumbled across this FAQ oddly enough because I bought an AR and ended up here.
Anyway, I just got a Fist OWB/IWB model, and it seems very good so far other the brass adjustment buttons marking up the finish on top of the slide. I am heading to CA today and can do a write up on a holster/FS Baby Eagle when I get the pistol back from MRI. I had to send it out last week, because, out of about 2000 rounds, I have had 40-50 stoppages. I very much like the pistol, but it won't extract and eject for the life of it. I don't have problems with any other auto I shoot, so it is the gun. It has been resprung, but I think it is a rough chamber and/or bad extractor claw. I don't know enough about autos to make the call myself and no gunsmith nearby has a clue about CZs or clones. The FIST, though, is a very good holster that, including a very stiff belt, can hide such a heavy pistol. --John |

I just replaced the stock sights on my compact polymer .40 with meprolights.
Smacked em out from right to left (looking with muzzle away from you). Does not appear to be a taper. Takes a good amount of force. Also I just got my Fobus holster. Had to order off of ebay directly from Israel as Fobus USA doesn't carry one for it. This one is a paddle holster, right hand. Has a retention device that holds the trigger guard unless you press a button to release it. It is for a Jericho, fobus part number is JR-2SH http://gallery.mac.com/onitap/100136/DSCF0755/web.jpg http://gallery.mac.com/onitap/100136/DSCF0756/web.jpg http://gallery.mac.com/onitap/100136/DSCF0757/web.jpg Fits perfectly. |

Alright, sorry I found this section late. I have owned my baby eagle full size for a little over two years now. Someone on here posted something about CZ mags and if they fit. Well I heard this rumor also so I tried it. First off my baby eagle is in 40 s&w and my brother CZ75B is also in 40s&w. Let's put it this way, it would probably work, but it does not fit quite right in the baby eagle. The locking hole is slightly off on the cz to the baby eagle heigth wise. So I hope this helps most of you. I have only had two issues with my failing to feed and that was because people were limp wristing it.

I e-mailed FOBUS and asked if they made a paddle holster and this is what they e-mailed back.
If it's a COMPACT POLYMER then it would be our GL4 holster. If it's a COMPACT STEEL then it would be our WA99 holster. If it's SEMI-COMPACT/FULL SIZE then it's our GL3 holster. |

I just got my Cross Breed Holster and again i am impressed. this was my third holster from them and it combines concealabillity and comfort in one package. i have been carrying it concealed for a week now and i don't notice it at all. i did have to modify it by softening the kydex and raising it where the little bump protrudes from the right. now it is flawless. for the price all BDE owners should at least try them out. i believe he lets you try one for two weeks and if you don't like it you can send it back for a full refund and it has a lifetime warranty. www.crossbreedholsters.com
http://i370.photobucket.com/albums/oo144/ruben7520/CrossBreed1.jpg I had to raise this part so that the little nub on the right side wouldn't get caught because when you wear this IWB it tends to put pressure on it not allowing it to be pulled out. with this modification it still snaps into place but is accessible when i need to pull it out. http://i370.photobucket.com/albums/oo144/ruben7520/CrossBreed2.jpg http://i370.photobucket.com/albums/oo144/ruben7520/CrossBreed3.jpg http://i370.photobucket.com/albums/oo144/ruben7520/CrossBreed4.jpg |

No need to rework the holster, it fits perfectly. I think the 226 fits in a little tighter, but when you are wearing it in the waistband the tension of your belt on you body will keep the pressure on the holster just fine.

Huh, it seems that the baby eagle fits in it, but the trigger guard is the wrong shape and won't allow it to seat all the way in. This is in my leather holster, it does not fit in my kydex M&P holster though.
You might be able to get it to work, you might need to mold the trigger guard. In my leather holster, the trigger guard is the place of retention so there really isn't much retention on the baby eagle due to the thinner trigger guard. The dust cover and slide area are approximately the same size. Both of my holsters are custom made so I can't say for others. Jon |
