Holster Break In?

Posted: 12/24/2005 10:22:39 AM EDT

I just got a new holster, what is a good way to break it in? The little booklet the holster came with said that I should leave the pistol in the holster for a couple of days. Any other advice from ARFCOM?

He said "break-in," not break.

Get a heavy freezer bag, stick the pistol in it and shove it in the holster for a day or two.

DONT bend the holster around trying to work it in. Its a holster, not a baseball glove. The molding is part of what retains the gun.

+1 on what Lumpy said. I do that with all my new leather and it works very well.

Thanks, I'll do this.
