Sidearms & Scatterguns Kydex needs? Columbia Firearm Services

[C.West]

I stumbled across these guys out of Portland Oregon. Mike Dehnke and Zach are great guys to deal with. Top notch customer service, very short wait time, and a quality product is what you'll recieve. American owned and operated to boot. Give these fellas a shot at fulfilling your kydex needs/wants. [email protected] or 503-729-4421
Here is a shot of the last items I had them make for me.

I am always open for new kydex makers. Do they offer holsters for guns with lights? That seems to be the hot item for most folks.

I dropped them a note. Thanks for the post.

Thats quite a fit on that 1911. Hows the draw? Almost looks like its locked in there!

Eddie, they do offer light options for most weapons.

Turbo, believe it or not the tension was perfect for me out of the box. I was skeptical myself. I have another one coming from them. Its the same setup as above, just closed in on the bottom. I'll put up some more photos and arrival review once I get my hands on it. Also spoke with him today and having him build a mag pouch setup with MOLLE clips and extra clips for the holsters. Very pleased so far.

I thought the same thing. My concern is with that much surface contact, my KimPro coated pistols will look like stainless in less than a month! ;-)

If you want it to look pretty and last forever....don't carry it.

My working handguns look ugly but shoot pretty. That's all I need to save my bacon.

I have some of Mike's stuff too, he does great work. He also sprayed the molyresin on my rem700.

That holster looks HUGE.

Re: Kydex needs? Columbia Firearm Services

Its no bigger than any other kydex holsters..Raven, Kaluban, Ntac etc...

Re: Kydex needs? Columbia Firearm Services

I think it may be the lack of taper on the holster. In my case, I live 10 minutes from Blade Tech, so I usually deal with them.

While the holster looks somewhat bulky to me Zach, it's good to see someone doing something a little different.

Re: Kydex needs? Columbia Firearm Services

To each his own I reckon...I myself am not a fan of tappered style holsters. My other one will be here tomorrow. More pictures to follow. Ill try to get a few shot of the holster on to put it into perspective. Its definitely not "bulky".

Yeah, everyone has their own likes, that's for sure. Everytime I look at it, it grows on me though.

Came in the mail today. Again, I could not be happier with it. Keep in mind, I am 6'0 165. Thin as the wind.
