Why are people fully prepared to slap down half a G for an automatic pistol then try and save $10 on the single piece of the system that most effects reliablity? Has Triple-K <I>ever</I> had a satisfied customer?<BR/><BR/>That said, I do own a pair of $15 Promags for my USP-45F (strictly for range use), because I'm waiting for H&K to figure out the secret that allows SIG, S&W, Glock and Beretta to sell factory magazines for under $40 list.<BR/><BR/>I may end up trading it in on a Kimber polymer widebody first. H&K: No Discount.<BR/><BR/>And for holsters, if you're willing to try another kydex holster, I've been very satisfied with the Blade-Tech UCH.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-1132245830306073432005-11-17T11:43:00.000-05:002005-11-17T11:43:00.000-05:00And, btw, where does the Versa Max fit in.

I understand it is primarily a tuckable holster, but does it still servce its general purpose well?<BR/><BR/>The last tuckable holster I had - a Comp-Tac for my Glock sucked as a tuckable and wasn't very good as a IWB (as you pointed out, its not very handy when the holster comes out with the handgun at 2 am at the ATM - and when it happens on the range, you can bet its gonna happen at the ATM)<BR/><BR/>Which do you have? <BR/><BR/>Thanks!Countertophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01059405469013648135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-1132245696663531342005-11-17T11:41:00.000-05:002005-11-17T11:41:00.000-05:00Tam,Excellent post.

If I ordered a Milt Sparks now will it arrive by then?<BR/><BR/>Also, what do you suggest for a day to day general carry?<BR/><BR/>How does something like the Watch Six compare to the Summer Special or the Executive Companion? Why would I choose one rather than the other?Countertophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01059405469013648135noreply@blogger.com
