Sidearms & Scatterguns Kimber holster
Any holster will cause wear. Kydex is a bit harder physically on the holster, but leather has acids in it that break down the bluing. Better made holsters like Milt Sparks, garret Industries will prevent some of that acid exchange. Some things to consider: The more presentations you do, the...- fasteddie565

Sidearms & Scatterguns Opinions needed: glock gen4 21SF vs S&W 'M&P in 45
Re: Opinions needed: glock gen4 21SF vs S&W 'M&P in 45 I have them both. The M&P is definitely more accurate and more point of aim similar to the 1911. The Glock capacity is higher, and the mag release and slide stop are a bit easier to get to IMHO. For what its worth, I CCW the 21 with a...- fasteddie565

Sidearms & Scatterguns Cary leather and spare mags?
Re: Cary leather and spare mags? Your own natural body oil will help form the holster to your body. I call it "putting your own stink on it". I Like horse hide as well, but it squeaks when its new. I have leather / kydex and some kydex holsters. I always come back to the all leather. You...- fasteddie565

Sidearms & Scatterguns Sig or M&P
Re: Sig or M&P Traded for my first M&P a few months back and really enjoy it. I eventually decided that I did not like the DA/SA of a sig. Well made, very accurate, just not the action I want. Still have the M&P and traded the sigs.- fasteddie565

Sidearms & Scatterguns lofty wiseman SAS survival tool
Re: lofty wiseman SAS survival tool Looks like a good bit of kit to me. I think the smaller one would suit my needs. Probably get the coated blade as well, in the event you pack it away in a go bag or some sort or in the gun safe.- fasteddie565

Sidearms & Scatterguns SW 327 Nightguard
Re: SW 327 Nightguard Have you shot one? I thought the same thing when I bought my 325. I bought a kydex paddle holster and some of the fancy plastic full moon clips.
