    Bw s256 turbo with 3 in glass pack dumped pre axle raptor liner bed and top rails and fenderflares and rocker panels. Hunter side steps. Plasti-dipped upper fenders and emblems. satin black spray paint here and there inside and out. 5100's set to 1.75" up front . C channel front bumper. Maxxis bighorn 255/85/16
    I've started making kydex holsters and I am getting pretty decent at it and have had several request. so I thought I would start kind of a feeler type thread here for some ideas and negotiation and what not. this is pretty much what I have for prices so far
    MIC=$15
    top fold with clip= $30
    2 piece with 2 clips $45
    add sweat guard= $5
    stand alone magazine holster =$15
    add on mag holster=$10
    add a paddle= $15


    All of my stuff is gonna be standard black .080 kydex (other colors and thickness can be ordered but that will be added to the base price) suede is also black unless buyer wants to pay for another order.
    depending on the size and shape there will be 1 or 2 retention screws that are adjustable, and depending on iwb or owb there will be 2 or 3 loop/clip screws which may also double as retention screws if space allows/is needed

    flat rate boxes at usps will be used for most of the shipping unless otherwise discussed, and they start at about $7 and I think I could get 2 holsters in a box and the next size up is about $9 and it should hold maybe 4 holsters (this is what I had to use to ship 1 of the 2 piece holster with additional mag holder but there was enough room in the box to fit another of the smaller designs) shipping will be on the buyer and added to the total cost but I will obviously combine as much as possible to keep your cost down.

    I have access to a decent amount of guns through friends and family and facebook so if you will p.m. me or comment on here with a gun I can see if I can get a hold of one to make a holster for you


    (pics moved to post #4 so that newest pics will be thumbnail of thread)

    How about an open top/bottom holster for a Streamlight Stinger flashlight, in desert tan, that could be mounted vertically on a MOLLE vest?

    I make kydex holsters and sheaths as well. Its a fun hobby and I've sold a few. Do you vacuum form or press form?

    clips will now be .125 in stead of .080 so they are beefed up quite a bit

    Me too. Doing it as a hobby and in small numbers vacuum forming has to much wasted material I think.

    umm... what? so flash light, that would be light up a guess, open top and bottom, and molle vest I tried lookin at images but couldn't really tell how stuff attached to them. like are there just loops so maybe a clip and and upside down clip could catch two of the loops?

    I haven't done any knives but I don't see why I couldn't, same principle applies.

    Subb'd just got a MIC for my g26 from different source, was dissapointed as the ad showed a metal grommet at the lanyard hole, delivered without. Is that something you could do? may be interested in an IWB in future
