Holiday Holster Sale Extended Through 2/1/2010
Hey everybody, if you saw the previous site, you probably saw the sale price of $49.99 "while supplies last" or "through the holidays", we should have enough supplies through the end of the month, and that should give me enough time to get the new site in order.
So we're extending the sale through 2/1/2010! After February 1, the original price will go back to $69.99.
Concealed Handgun: Liability or Asset?
A certain percentage of any governed people must be armed, equally to their government. We maintain that right, we carry arms, we have those in our homes. When we decide to carry a concealed weapon, such as a concealed handgun, we do that for more immediate reasons, namely to protect our lives. In that regard, we would say that a concealed handgun is definitely an asset! It is the ultimate weapon, and carrying concealed can give you an enormous advantage in any hostile situation.
When we make that decision, we bare a certain burden. We are wholly responsible for that weapon, abiding by the law, and using the gun in such a way that it may save our lives, and at the same time keep ourselves out of jail. The law imposes a certain set of liabilities on our choice to carry.
So the answer is both! But just like in the scene in Kill Bill we have to feel one more than the other! So which one do you feel more? Liability? or Asset?
Console Box Car Mount Holster
A customer was kind enough to send in some photos of his console box mounted holster. This holster is mounted opposite of how we usually see them, so it is a left hand draw holster mounted in the console box. This mounting position, combined with the way the lid opens, keeps the gun very well hidden from passengers in the car, and also allows better usage of the console box. Items placed in the console don't travel over the firearm.

Concealed Carry on Campus
Drug free. Weapon free.
We all want our educational institutions to be free of any possible negativity. These institutions provide a launchpad for the next generation helping them carry our nation forward to thrive and lead the world. Many campuses across this country operate like a city within a city providing their own housing, food, health care, counseling, and police force. Everything you would find in a city can be found on campus.
So when it comes to the safety of these campus citizens, are we doing enough? Are we restricting too much their ability to protect themselves?
When it comes to the safety of each individual in this country we already realize that The Country, the state, the city, the campus, not even the county or neighborhood can be there to protect you all of the time. Just like the old saying goes, you can't please all of the people all of the time; nor can you protect all of the people all of the time. Thus, we maintain that individuals have the right to protect themselves, and we work hard to protect that right.
How does this differ in a campus, learning institution environment? What are we worried about causing us to restrict the presence of firearms on campuses? What about the restriction on carrying a firearm in your car while your car is on campus grounds?

Kimber Pro Carry II Car Mount Holster
[update 12/28/2009]
- We've got materials to make about another thirty holsters, and then the sale will be over!
Last week we got the prototypes of the car mount holster mounts in from our engineering partner, Texas Engineering Systems! We took the prototypes and manufactured a new Easy Rider holster for one of our Kimber Pro Carry II .45 acp pistols. The result? Fantastic!
Universal Mountable Leather Holster
I mounted one of these in my SUV tonight and replaced the original generation 1 prototype that I had mounted to the console before.
Pictures are available on our flickr photo stream
This all leather, universal holster is lined in hunter green velvet to protect the finish and integrity of the holstered firearm. We never recommend leaving your firearm holstered in your car unless it is locked up, but do understand that your pistol may spend 99.99% of its life in a holster. During that time it should be nice and cozy (safe from rough leather and dye), and upholstery grade velvet does just the trick!
The universal mountable holster is available in our shop, and fits most firearms comfortably, some smaller firearms like the Walther PPK may fit a little loose; Send us an email if you plan on holstering smaller firearms with your order and will adjust the stitch line to fit smaller handguns. We also tested the fit with several small and mid-sized revolvers, including a Taurus and Smith & Wesson model; after a little bit of settling, they fit right in!
Walther P99 Car Mount Holster
Back into the shop this last weekend, we pressed a Walther P99:
The mounts are also in, we're heading back into the shop this weekend to get some new photos of some of these holsters properly mounted / fastened to various surfaces. Quite a lot of work went into designing the holster and mount to fit together in a way that provides safe/efficient access to your firearm while you're driving. I think all of that work is starting to pay off with these holsters.
