Pictures.

Unwritten forum rules dictate that you MUST post pictures of your new gun.

Hey you guys! So sorry I haven't been on in a couple days we just found out my grandfather was diagnosed with Leukemia so I haven't been on my computer much!

Anyway, for now I went with an outside the waistband Uncle Mike holster, I'm having a hard time with the snap it doesn't seem to want to stay :/ maybe it just needs to break in?

Once I get a little more $ I was thinking about checking into kydex? If you guys have any suggestions please let me know Also, any good websites out there too!?

So sorry about your Grandfather. Prayers sent.

For Kydex holsters check out Fobus. Very inexpensive and pretty good quality.

Keep us updated.
