We The People Holsters

FinsnFur · February 16, 2020, 09:42:41 PM

I went to Cabela's a couple weeks ago looking for a holster for my latest Kimber 1911. Nobody would let me take anything out of the box and everything was incredibly priced between 50 and $100.
I'm not big on leather holsters cuz I don't like the way they gnaw at the finish on the gun. Plus I find myself having to leave mine in the truck to go to the Post Office, government buildings. , or certain stores and I don't like the way the fabric or leather holsters collapse when the gun is removed.
It seems like there is a ton of these companies out there that make these hard plastic holsters, which they call Kydex. I don't know what made me decide to choose We the People holsters, other than some brief information from their ads and the number of followers they had.
But I decided to give them a try and ordered a Kydex hard holster for my full-size Kimber 1911. I got to say I am extremely impressed with this thing. Especially for the price.
Just like anybody else....I don't want to feel like I'm carrying a backpack on my hip. This thing adds practically nothing to the thickness of the gun. Making it extremely comfortable.
I bought the iwb model and the belt clip is adjustable to raise or lower the holster or also tip it forward or tip it back. Making it incredibly handy to wear. You can also adjust the pistol gripping pressure. I'm very impressed with these guys.

I forgot to mention. They're made right here in the US.
Down in Nevada.

Looks like a nice holster and Kydex is something that I just started playing with. I needed another hobby.

That's a damn nice looking countertop!

Holster price?

Seems to be retail of $65 and selling for $37. Decent price.

Yep...$37 and they gave me FB coupon code for 10%. I really didn't expect this thing to be this nice for that kind of money.

Then send them some more so you will feel better.

Jim, that looks like it has the Carbon Fiber design in the Kydex. I do like the looks of that design, but don't have any of it yet.

I seen how one of the guys was carrying with an IWB at LBL this year. It was nothing more than the clip being mounted with the handgrip screws & hangs on the belt like a tape measure.

I like the little yellow stud one that goes in the end if the barrel and clips to your belt! Cheap simple and works great.
This looks like a really nice holster Jim! I've seen some with nice designs on them like the flag.
