Cowboy Holsters
User Info IM User Email User Reply Quote Report
No more fobus for me. This is the second time I’ve had problems with their design. I was using the recalled roto holster with the hard plastic strap on my Glock cowboy holsters with M3 light on a warrant service. Had the guy on the ground and started to Blackhawk Holster. At the last minute I noticed that hard plastic thumb break had slipped into the trigger guard. I almost shot a hole in my leg. Got the replacement holster and it has worked fine.
Today I picked up a new fobus revolution Handgun Holsters for my Kimber. I get it home and try it out. The Kimber slid in with a loud click and it was in there for good. I couldn’t get it back out. The instructions say you have pull it straight up with force. Well that’s no good for anyone in a dangerous situation where a quiet and slow draw may be necessary. The Fobus guys just don’t think things through. Oh and I couldn’t get the Kimber out till I loosened the tension screw so much till the gun Holsters just slid out without any resistance. Back to the gun shop it goes.
Ah, whatever. I’m just annoyed that I had to spend ammo money on another holster. I’ll get over it…
rtunately had problems with ripping the rivets out of the plastic. Also have one of the recalled Handgun Holster and contacted Fobus holster about a replacement, but never received a replacement holster.

Browning hi power magazine
Although it would seem not as in demand as the Government Model the Browning hi power magazine 1900 pistol magazine Hi-Power has remained a popular offering through our shop. Still an extremely viable weapon system, even in stock form the Hi-Power offers a very attractive blending of size, weight, concealability, and of course a healthy payload of ammo. And for those who favor a 9mm there really may be no better platform for a carry gun… but, despite being lauded by many as Browning hi power magazines masterpiece, the guns arent exactly perfect from the factory. Many users find the stock sights too small, the thumb safety less than optimal, the hammer a bit too nippy, and the trigger simply not as useable as the Brownings other jewel the 1911. But at Heirloom Precision weve got a little something that addresses all that and more… the SRT conversion.

Blackhawk Holsters
I have no issue with Fobus Uncle Mikes Holsters. I trusted one to carry my M9 around various FOB’s in Afghanistan, granted when I left the wire my pistol holster moved up to my body armor mounted Blackhawk Serpa.
It was plenty comfortable for walking around and sitting down and such Blackhawk Holsters (it was belt mounted) and I never worried about my weapon falling out of it.
User Info IM User Email User Reply Quote BLACKHAWK HOLSTERS
I’ve got an older Fobus roto-paddle holster for my Glock Magazines. It’s ok for range work or screwing around at home. Never thought about using for CCW even before all the talk about being able to rip it off. It just doesn’t conceal worth a damn unless you wear a bulky coat all the time. All in all, it’s worth the 20 bucks I paid for it 5 years ago as it’s held up fine for what I bought it for.

kpel308,
Got any salt?
The Fobus HK1 for my USPc .45 doesn’t hold the gun securely. Every other Fobus I’ve used held the gun positively against negative G; IOW, if you fell on your back, etc, the gun would stay put. A determined tug was necessary to release it.
Not this one; you can now ease the gun out with two fingers on the butt. Obviously, that’s a no-go. The first few days it was fine; perhaps something is wrong with it, after a couple of hundred presentations. Oh, well…
I ordered a Kramer this afternoon.
BTW, I’ve been toting for 28 years; 226 days till retirement. I’ve come full circle: from using "common" Leather Holsters as a rookie, to discovering custom stuff, then the Fobus, and now back to custom.
And THAT Pistol Magazine about the best summation of the situation I’ve ever read. Good post, Barry.
I realize I’m digging up a corpse that is better left buried, but all the "experts" on these boards just wear me out at times. I’ve carried a G19 in a Fobus GL2 professionally for over seven years. I’ve snagged it on door cowboy holster, car doors, etc., numerous times; it is still quite serviceable, thank you.

Sig Sauer 239 magazines
Sig Sauer 239 magazines was cleaned and lubed before heading out. I soaked the extractor in CLP at the range and cleaned it there. That didn’t make any difference in the frequency of FTEx.
This is a real disappointment for me. I really, really like the way the Sig Sauer 239 magazine feels and points. The trigger was fine and for the 6 times the pistol actually functioned as a auto-loader follow-up shots seemed to be fast. I was hoping that this was going to be my new carry pistol, but that isn’t going to happen until it’s fixed.

Glock 19 Magazine
o what if he does? Does that make him a freak or deserve a wow? Does that make him less of a man or something? Did I miss the memo that shows how they proved hand size directly relates to intelligence or penis size? What about women and kids, are they not worthy of shooting Glock 19 Magazine because their hands aren’t big enough either?
I just don’t understand the stupid comments that posted everytime this subject comes up. Such as..

And why the hell not? There is absolutely nothing wrong with replaceable grip inserts. Show me an example of even one polymer framed pistol with replaceable grip inserts that have had issues related to that feature? You can’t. You just don’t like it because you personally don’t need it. Well goody gum drops for you but there are a lot of people who do.
There is nothing wrong with replaceable grip inserts and it is stupid for any polymer pistol in this day and age not to have them. The problem is people like you who have no problems with the Glocks the way they are seem to think that if they work for you, they should work for everybody and if it doesn’t tough shit.
Well that’s not the way it works. Most companies have already caught on to that and whether you like it or not, Glock 19 Magazines will eventually have to wake up and smell that coffee too. Mark my words, it will happen. Maybe not this year or next but it is coming.
Don’t fret though, all you haters who think the Gen2 or 3 frames are perfection should rejoice because just think about all of the cheap Gen2 and 3 frames that will hit the market when everybody starts trading up the the Gen4 (or 5?) frames!

Colt 1911 magazine
There are several of the "production line" custom smiths like Wilson, Les Baer etc. that will sell you a super-accurate gun, if thats what you really want. Yes, they are expensive, but they are very very good. The last brand I would buy is a Colt 1911 magazine, not because they are bad but because they offer poor value… you are paying a premium price for the pony rollmark on the slide. A Colt makes sense for a collector or for someone with more money than sense, but otherwise you get more bang for your buck with non-Colt 1911 magazines brands.
One more point - bear in mind that, in general, 1911 accuracy is gained by tightening clearance in critical areas (barrel lockup, chamber, slide-to-frame etc.), and this can increase the propensity to malfunctions. For a carry gun, you do not want accuracy at the expense of reliability.

Rifle Scopes
I ‘m in total agreement with you about not having this scope made in China Rifle Scopes. I’m a firefighter, I don’t build scopes. It was never my intention to go thru all the time money and frustration Ive been thru in trying to get this reticle into a good quality scope. I have offered to license this reticle to just about every one of the scope manufactures that make good quality tactical scopes. All of them, I say again all of them have turned my offer down. Even Millett was not interested in marketing the CRS under their company. Instead Millett Rifle scopes took the concept of the CRS and sold it as the rfp circle dot DMS-1.
US Optics could have made the 1×4 or 1.5×6 version of the CRS but I wasn’t satisfied with their illumination system plus a couple of other factors kept me from going with them.

Trijicon
Other than that - I’m very thankful Trijicon made this scope. It’s a perfect blend of precision and speed. It’s eye relief, size, and FOV make for a fast & compact general purpose optic. For 10-300 yard shooting, this is in my opinion, the perfect ACOG. For shooting under 10 yards, it seems like it’d serve me well - I may toss some Bulter Creek Flip Caps on this one for an occluded option since the construction will allow for it! Trijicon, the caps will make the ACOG Scope Coat a thing of the past.
Something always kept me from hanging onto an ACOG. I feel the TA33R8 was made just for me!
If you’re looking for an ACOG - don’t overlook this guy. It is in my opinion the ultimate 10-300 yard SHTF ACOG for a 14.5"- 16" AR15. It’s truly an amazing piece of glass.

Flashlights
Right now, Surefire is the only place I know of that makes beam filters. Infra Red (IR) filters are used to filter out all light but infrared for using a light with night vision equipment. Light in this spectrum cannot be seen with the naked eye. So your light will work like an invisible Flashlight for night vision equipment only. LED lights dont have much IR light in them, so using an IR filter on an LED is like putting a spoiler on a tractor. Beam filters just make your light red or blue. Blue light helps show blood in the night. Red light does not ruin your night vision and is also very difficult for dear to see at night. Beam shapers turn a tight and blinding beam into a wide and soft flood pattern. Surefire numbers its filters as follows where the next to last number indicates what size bezel the filter fits and the last number indicates what type lens it contains.
