    Yeah, I have seen those. I can only find the 'green on green' for the Kimber, though. Would perfer the
    green front/yellow or orange rear, for sure. MMC has those on their web site, but not Meprolight.

    Thanks for the input. You reinforced my tendencies. What are the pros/cons of open/closed muzzle
    holsters? The only thing I can find from the manufacturer's is that it allows foreign debris to pass on...

    Here is a DeSantis model I kinda like. Model 85 (L)"Premium saddle leather, double seams and a highly
    detailedmolded fit, make this exposed muzzle, tight fitting, two-slotholster a great choice for yo...

    Thanks for info. All of gun smithing exp has been on long guns, so far. Like you say, it ain't hard, but
    ain't to muck up either. One slip of the punch and tritium everywhere:eek: How does the MMC bra...

    Thanks Matt and JD, I have narrowed my options to a DeSantis, with a FBI cant, OWB. The only real
    decision left is thumb snap or open top. Material is immaterial to me:cool:; do you guys see any pros/...

    With regards to retention systems, the Level II is my preference by far. As far as carrying a 1911 cocked
    and locked, I would like a holster with a strap between the hammer and striker/firing pin. Tha...

    I just traded a XD .45 for a Kimber Ultra Crimmson Carry in same cal (see post in other thread). I want
    to install trigium night sights. I have done this several times on long guns, but never on hand ...

    Yeah, I have seen a black molded plastic, paddle style holster (the name evades me right now), that uses
    a "tension screw" for retention. I like the Blackhawk system of positive saftey, positive relea...

    Sorry for for being so vague. OWB, material neg., I did have a Blackhawk CQB SERPA for my XD. Seems they
    are not available for Kimber. I do like some form of "security", if you will, some way to keep ...

    Grettings to all,I just traded my XD .45 "4 Compact for a Kimber Ultra Crimmson Carry .45. This is my
