You guys that carry Bianchi X-15 holsters...
I have a question.
What is an X-15 CONDOR holster?
I bought one off the web for my 4 1/2 inch Glock and when it arrived, marked CONDOR you could put an 8 3/8 "N" frame in it. I HAVE $56.00 in it.

Hmm, I know what a Bianchi X-15 is, I have several, in different sizes, for guns ranging from a 2" J-Frame to a 6 1/2" 29. None are marked "Condor," only Bianchi, X-15 and the size of each - small, medium-small, medium, large, etc. (the Bianchi star logo is above those markings, stamped on the "inside" (to the wearer) of the holster itself. I've used these for well over 30 years. You are talking about a shoulder holster, right? Is it marked (stamped) Bianchi and X-15? If so, $56 is a great price. Bianchi makes at least 5 sizes of the X-15; obviously, if you got such a large holster, it is not the correct size for your Glock. If you can post a picture, it may help.

I have not figured out how to post pictures yet.
All the markings on the holster says is CONDOR.
I phoned Bianchi International and the new owners did not know anymore than I do.

Considering that the CA lead ammo ban is supposedly for the benefit of the condors, I find it in particularly bad taste for a holster company to stamp CONDOR on their holster. Of course, this one may have been made prior to the whole issue, in which case it is irrelevant.

Anyway, good luck identifying the thing.

I didn't even think you could make a holster out of one of those things, I figured the hide would be too thin.

If your holster is only marked "Condor," it is not a Bianchi. Their holsters have always been marked with their company name, model number and size. Honestly, I don't remember any Bianchi holsters called "Condor," though that is not, by any means, a definitive truth. I was a Bianchi dealer when I owned a gun shop in the '70s and '80s, and have generally kept current with their line since then, as I always considered their holsters to be high quality, and owned quite a few of them. Methinks it possible that you have another brand of holster, though I won't state that definitely - too many variables.

Is it like this?

Here's how to post pics. Show the back of the holster with the markings.
