Flitz and the dreaded Dremel make shiny fast.

That is a thing of beauty! Not only is it a beautiful piece but a great shooter too! Thats a win win right there!

I know! I am so glad I found it for sale before it got gone! I am looking forward to my first range session.

Who made that holster?

[JFootin]

The one in the slideshow? It is the Tagua Open Top Lined Belt Holster. I know, it doesn't look like the same holster as pictured with a 1911 on ther website. Not only so, but I ordered it to fit a PM9 and apparently they think a holster made to fit a PM45 is fine for a PM/CM9. It was so loose the gun would fall out of it if tipped over. I sold it to a member with a PM45 and it fits his gun perfectly. This, and other similar sizing issues, is what has turned me against large holster makers. They make compromises to simplify their inventory, designating one model holster to fit a collection of guns - sort of! That is why I now like to deal with the one man show home businesses who make holsters one at a time to order, that will fit my gun exactly. And if they don't have a pattern gun for it, they'll tell me they can't make it.

Here is a holster just about like that, but I think you can get it to fit correctly. The Bonneville:

Nice looking holster! What I liked about mine was the high ride and how concealable it was.

I see you have a Jams dean
And a Pjholster witch do you ware the most what is the pros/cons of both. I have spent a lot of time looking at holsters I love the look of leather. But the Kydex seam thinner smaller easy to reholster. As of now I have a Rpollard witch is lick a crossbreed very cofterable but a pain to get on and of and it's a rig not a holster. Now looking at pj but love leather. What to do!! Any help you have would be great.

Well, both the JD and the PJ are good choices and I'd say get both! They each have their special attributes.

The PJ is as thin as it gets and, with the CM9, it just seems to become part of your body and disappear. Comfortable all day long. And very concealable because of the thinness and how close it sits to your body. I prefer the over the belt clip on the PJ. It can be had tuckable, which adds a little to the thickness.

The JD is nothing short of a work of art in leather! There just aren't words to describe how beautiful the workmanship is on this holster: hand stitched with not a thread out of place, finest Herman Oak leather, perfectly sized and shaped and molded to the gun, deep shiny finish and the most perfectly molded and finished edges I have ever seen. And when you see the price of it delivered to your door, you will just keep on smiling as you behold and handle it! I consider it an extraordinary opportunity to know one of the most talented holster makers ever to come along early in his career before his holsters become very expensive and you have to wait 6 months to get one. And, of course, to add some of his masterpieces to your collection!

Edit: I am now wearing my JD holster all day every day. It is winter, so I can easily cover it with a coat or jacket. And around the house it is so comfortable. There is just something about a fine leather holster. It becomes a part of you, like your favorite belt, wallet or knife.

Edit2: Not only so, but I feel good about myself because I have demonstrated such good taste in my gun and holster choices!
