In the same spirit as the Rifle Scope Forum - "Tips for Asking Advice About Rifle Scopes" and as Jerry McGuire said, "help me, help you".

I suggest a similar forum Sticky regarding Holster Advice.

There are so many good holster makers today, nobody imo needs to buy boxs of holsters to get what they want anymore.

If I am wanting leather and the selection is pedestrian as far as what I am wanting to holster- WINTHROP makes decent cheap iwb and owb rigs. Boning isnt great, materials are ok, stitching is ok- it's a sub $50 leather holster that gets the job done

If I am wanting leather and willing to pay a much higher price, Pure Kustom makes nice convertible dual iwb/owb holsters for about ANYTHING like you wanna get a leather STI holster with a surfire 300 and an rmr, no problem....they are $200 plus, I just wish Rocky made the sweatguard smaller to get a better grip on the gun....

There a tons of kydex benders but I keep going back to KT Mechanical and Bravo Concealment if I do not use the local custom guy as I find the $$ to quality is favorable with these two makers
