I know there's another popular thread here, but I figured I'd make another for the IWB holster I had made right before my eyes today. They luckily had some time this afternoon to make a holster for my XD-9 subcompact with a Streamlight TLR-3 attached (so operator) so I headed north from Olympia to their mobile workshop deep in Cascadia (actually: Spanaway).

I ended up going with a black IWB holster (for covert missions) as well as an OD green (for forest missions) micro holster. This was their first micro holster for a gun/light system and they not only got it first try, but got it perfect the first try.

A few photos from the making of it:

Cutting. OMG WATCH YOUR FINGERS!!!


Sanding the micro holster. OMG WATCH YOUR FINGERS!!!


Fine-tuning the one-off micro holster.

And here are some photos of the completed holsters:









The quality is fantastic and the price is excellent. The price is beyond excellent. Skip a few meals at McDonalds and buy yourself a goddamned holster. Both fit my firearm/light very well. Smooth edges all around and a firm hold on the weapon. The turn-around time is the best out there (one hour or so from arriving there aka about two months faster than whatever pile of suck company you were going to go with before.).

Having both IWB clips and OWB belt loops makes it a versatile system. Between the full holster and the micro, all of my needs are covered for $100 total (that's like 12 meals from McDonalds if I use McDonalds algebra). Watching Rich and Jeff make the holsters in front of me was a cool experience. It was like total fucking David Blaine street magic but with holsters; seriously dudes transferred my holsters through a plate glass window after they were done. Go buy one, really. For someone like me with a non-standard gun/light combo, this service is awesome and really saved my ass on either a) getting screwed with high prices and a long wait time or b) making my own holster out of felt, yarn, and crayons.

They can be found at http://www.nwtacticalproducts.com/main.sc or outside of fine gun shows across the state.

Now THAT is an epic review!

i know who gets my business once i've got a pistol!

Totally brought a tear to my eye... from laughing that is an awesome review man..

Thank you so very much!!

And yes Jeff still has all 11 fingers..

Do you guys have a set route? Are you normally in certain areas certain weeks? Nick mentioned spanaway, and you guys mention mobile. Might encourage some guys to get together and get a F2F going if they knew you were going to be in the area...

I am running a gun with a not so common light (TLR4) and will eventually be "needing" a holster that can carry it. Once I have the funds I will be getting in touch!

Awesome review Nick! Being an owner of a NWTP setup, I know exactly how you feel.

Meh... I guess it was okay. Not enough use of varying forms of "fuck", "shit" or "bling". The term "baller" or "balling" would also have been acceptable.
They make good shit though. Seriously.

Thank you guys for fitting me into your schedule and making me the great holsters.



Ah shit dog sorry you and your sister's romantic evening in got ruined by my review's lack of adding the words baller/ballin'/Ballingford to the mix. Next time, tho!

Seriously though they do make good stuff.

Thanks everyone for the feedback.

My sister died six years ago. Thanks for bringing that up. Fucker.

We'll drink some Four Loko in her honor tonight. Pour one out.

Rich: remember snus goes in the UPPER lip.

Great review. On my Xmas list... Please Santa...

Anytime Nick.. and yes. upper lip.. LoL

Good stuff

No as far as mobile we totally are mobile and we hit up the local WAC gun show each month..

But i have tossed the idea around that if we knew we would have a certain number of others to make it worth the fuel cost we could TOTALLY come set up near someone's place and have others meet up and get holsters while you wait..

Little BBQ.. Some music.. Hang out..

Maybe at a Range.. hmmmmmm

AWESOME
