Default It ain't Kydex


For any of you DIYers that are interested in holster making, I just discovered that you don’t have to use KYDEX to make a holster. I just made an IWB for my SW9VE from a piece of large white plastic that used to be the top of a Brita water cooler. This is my first plastic holster I ever tried to make and got the plastic a little to hot in places, but I proved to myself it will work. It ain’t very pretty, but it will be hidden in my britches under my shirt anyway. I just need to be more patient next time and use less heat. I need to scrounge around now for some large pieces of formable plastic for my next attempt. Preferably another color other that bright white!
