I had a similar situation when I bought my 6906. It arrived with unexpected flaws most notability was a broken extractor. To the sellers credit, no claim was made to the guns condition, and a refund was offered. I of course would be responsible for the return shipping and the initial shipping...

Charlie Foxtrot Thank you so much for your very informed answer and perspective. The Don Hume does seem to almost fit the bill if they are able to mold it to my gun. But I do see that there could be some bulge issues as the clip is directly on the holster it's self rather than two on either...

I do know what you mean as far as additional difficulty opening a thumb break when it's so tight up against the body. On my OWB holsters I wrap my belt around the outside of the holster to pull it in tighter against my body for better concealment. I've learned to open the holster in by sliding...

I completely forgot to mention, it's for a 6906 with a round trigger guard.

I truly love the the concept of holster like the Crossbreed Super Tuck, Ted Blocker's DA3, and Milt Spark's Versa Max II. Unfortunately per my agency policy, any off duty holster I carry needs to have a locking retention such as a thumb break. Unfortunately not of the three fit the bill. I...

Please forgive my complete ignorance, but I've read posts before saying that the 4013TSW and the 6906 frames were "identical." Does that mean one could use a 6906 with any 4013 slide to make a double stack 4013? Or was the word IDENTICAL taken to literally. Also do the 4006 magazines work in...

Alloy? If my recollection is correct, wouldn't that be a "5903"?

I fully realize that now. This gun from end to end has been made for concealed carry. Even the fact that the decocker/safety and slide release have been shaved down a couple millimeters impressed me. But what makes it the most difference in my opinion is the bobbed hammer, and the...

I find myself in the same position. I sort of lost enthusiasm after I didn't get my gun repaired before re-qualification last time around, but now that I've carried and handled this one, I find myself looking for similar 3rd gen guns in full size and compact both in 40 and 45. I'm also...

I've been lurking around this forum for quite a while now and I've seen post after post of members proclaiming their 6906 as their finest carry weapon. Now after finally qualifying with as my supplemental, I prepared to do the same. Now I'll start by confessing, I've have and extremely...
