Has anyone compared to a Foxx holster. Foxx Trap versions are a bit less expensive and have an adjustable clip. Seems like it would be nice to adjust your cant as needed and cannot imagine that the thickness is substantial. I have a PJ and like it, but don't love it like others do.

It sounds like I may have to order mine with a 20 degree cant as well. I used a blow dryer for my crossbreed. Maybe try that?Originally posted by JFootin View PostYou guys keep talking about a 20° cant. I am going to have to try that. I just need to figure out how to heat the kydex safely in order to change the cant (I don't have a heat gun).

Crossbreed tells you to do that on their kydex to add retention. All I did was heated it enough to dent in the trigger guard part. If you do it on your loop make sure you wrap the rest of the holster in a towel and use gloves. I am not a professional so dont sue me.

this ehow doesn't mention ovens but I wonder about heating it in the oven. 300 degrees max, I would start with a cold oven and keep checking until temp reached 300. It appears to have a working temp in the low 300 and should not get into the 400 temps ever....Originally posted by JFootin View PostI didn't think a blow dryer would get it hot enough.

Well, Paul can heat it and rebend it. But he is a busy man! From what I have read, there is a temperature that is right and there is a temperature a little higher where the kydex is quickly destroyed. No danger of that with a hair dryer. I wouldn't want to put it in the oven because it might change shape in other places. I would want to concentrate the heat on the top edge where the clip bends over. I think I can do it by holding it near a burner on my electric stove and keep checking it until it is soft enough to rebend.Originally posted by HalfCocked View Postthis ehow doesn't mention ovens but I wonder about heating it in the oven. 300 degrees max, I would start with a cold oven and keep checking until temp reached 300.
