I'll just leave this here...

Don't mind me. I was just talking about finish wear and kydex holsters elsewhere and I needed a place to park a picture to which I could link.

That's about two years' worth of wear and tear: Daily carry plus dry practice, classes, matches, two Blogorados, et cetera. Mostly a Dark Star Gear IWB, but also a little bit with a Blade-Tech OWB and a Dark Star Gear OWB. (With the light, that is. Before I had the light I used a Secret City Weaponeers K-25 and then a Blade-Tech/Looper Hybrid holster briefly before switching to a Raven Concealment Systems Phantom.)

  1. Yes. The Blade-Tech isn't but the other two are.

  2. Misread that as "fetish wear" at first. Thank you for that not being the case. I really didn't need that today.

  3. You say that like there is something wrong with it...

  4. "Capable of firing with magazine removed" makes me a little sad.

    Not that it is so capable, mind you, but that it's felt necessary to print that on a gun these days.

  5. If you have burrs inside your Kydex holster, they can be "melted" with Q-tip application of MEK, methyl ethyl ketone, the stuff sometimes used to weld PVC tubing together.

    This solvent will really dissolve the Kydex, so use it like you'd use a Dremel to smooth your feed ramp: barely any at all.

    I not only slept in a Holiday Inn Express last night, I also am a Chemistry PhD.
