I cannot find any dealers, manufacturers, or wholesalers that sell black Kydex100 in Pheonix Arizona. What the hell. I have raped Google, Altavista, and Yahoo for this info for like 2 days. I have alot of TAN but black is so much cooler and i got a bubby that has just ordered some AR piggy-back mag clips. I need to find black kydex. Thanks in advance.

Plastic. I think it started out being used for some stuff in interior construction ?? but now they make holsters out of it (and I think the plastic on computer monitors, copiers etc).

Try this:

[url]www.kydex.com[/url]

They have a list of distributors of their product.

You probably won't be able to buy directly from a distributor unless you use a lot of the stuff and set up an account, but the distributor should know where you might be able to get smaller quantities of it.

How about [url=http://www.portplastics.com]Port Plastics[/url]

I'm not sure if they sell to indiviuals or not. They have a branch in Phoenix. I know they sell small quantities of stuff, but I have only dealt with them through work.

Scroll down on the page, or search for Kydex.

Not sure if this is exactly what you're looking for, but [url=http://www.mcmaster.com]McMaster-Carr Supply Co.[/url] stocks Kydex T sheets in Black, Grey and White. McMaster ships super-fast, and there's usually no minimum order — GREAT source for oddball hardware and materials.
