Milt Sparks Holsters

[jchodur]

I have been trying to reach the Milt Sparks website and am experiencing a problem. When I try I get this message from my Anti-Virus:

"We've safely aborted connection to Home - Milt Sparks because it was infected with URL:TechScam"

I did a search on URL:TechScam and came up empty. Also, I copied the message quoted above for this inquiry and it came out garbled with a bunch of misspellings when I pasted it here. I corrected the message as displayed on my screen.

Anyone else experience this. I viewed and ordered from the website before.

Call them on the phone.

FYI - I drove by Milt Sparks shop the other day and the sign on the door said they were back-ordered 6 months.

I'm using Norton had no problem accessing the site.

I just got in no problem, glad others think milt sparks is worth the money and the wait.

They have been back ordered 6 months for 10 years.
That's when I bought my first Milt Sparks.

Top Gun Supply has several in stock - have to cursor thru all 3 pages of Milt Sparks products to find them.

Thanks for all the replies. I will give them a call after the holiday.

Their backlog situation is untenable. If you want really fast service for the best custom holsters out there, contact Ken Null.

Success

Okay, I can get to their website now. I guess they were shut down for the holiday.

Thanks again,

A 6-month wait for a Sparks seems reasonable, when you want the best.

For me it use to be Lou Alessi. Should also add in that Mitch Rosen would be a tie with Sparks they both make excellent leather goods.
(IMHO)

Six months isn't too bad, I guess.

Del Fatti Leather isn't adding to the waiting list right now and is currently building holster for people who ordered in July of 2015!

Randall knives have close to the same lead time. Must be nice to be that popular!

I have been carrying a Beretta 92 in a Milt Sparks Executive Companion IWB holster for edc for 5 years and it is not showing any signs of wearing out. The six month wait is worth it to me.

 

[BAM-BAM]

Still using Milt Sparks IWB holsters that date back to the 1980s. They are my EDC holsters for a range of guns.
Summer Specials and Executive Companions.

Nothing wrong with Milt Sparks. However, I agree with those that think Ken Nulls designs are a bit better. His turn around time is a few weeks, instead of months. For those who want to feel violated by an extremely high price, go buy from Top Gun Supply. Their prices are outrageous. I understand that they buy them and keep them in stock.

What shawn mccarver said up in post #9. Ken Null does super work

Here is a picture of my Colt Gold Cup, riding in a Milt Sparks Summer Special.

I have to add my vote for Ken Null. I ordered a UNS model for one then ordered another a short time late. I literally had each in my hands in less than 10 days. Most comfortable holster I have used in 40 years of EDC....

This... He has made a lot of holsters for special details and knows what he is doing. If you want a holster that flat out works and conceals well his GSS is the way to go. Also have several of his cross draws for long drives that are very comfortable as well.

Yes, it's worth the wait. Get the shark skin with matching belt and ammo pouch.
