So you are a wannabe cowboy? The wild west days are long gone. No indians are going to rob you of your horse!
So I can't figure out what you mean... Are you saying nobody needs to carry when they ride horses?

On average, i see roughly 4-5 people a day on horseback. it is still a popular hobby/mode of transport for some in this area. So it is reasonable to prepare to carry thusly.

3. This reason wasn't planned but I bought it to screw with you!!:D
What is that supposed to mean? Are you threatening me?

This is great I am usually some what of an outsider on here. I'll bite and play with you.

No, I am not afraid of the indians. There are however other threats such as bears, crazy wackos in the hills,or the potential of your horse getting seriously injured and need to put it down, more humane then letting it suffer.

No, i am not threating you. The fact that you decided to get so up in arms over what holster I boughtwas an added bonus to my purchase. I gave you another thing to complain about. And the bonus for me of being able to debate you today. (Which I thourghly enjoy):lol:

i am curious why the model 21 sf doesnt fit in the serpa made for model 21.

i bought a serpa for a model 21, and it fit my model 30 well..
i since have sold my model 30 and now have a model 31 in 357 sig.
the serpa fits the 31 just alittle loose but still keeps the pistol inside the holster until the release is enganged.

The problem is with the picatanny rail it make the glock wider then a standard glock and makes it not fit in the holsters. I tried a regular glock 21 holster and it would not fit.

It was discussed a little over here http://opencarry.mywowbb.com/forum62/13478.html

at my place of employment, we are authorized in carrying the blackhawk serpa thigh rig. I love it for at work, it doesn't slid all over your thigh, making you feel like Barney Fife getting all excited. It stable and the leg straps are moveable so you can adjust the tension of the straps around your thigh. However, and if anyone can help, I am dismayed and not being able to find the serpa holster for my S&W 1911 w/ a tact. rail for RH as a waist band concealed hoslter. I've searched blackhawk's site, and well... I just may be a dee dee dee and not looking hard enough... but the serpa thigh rig, with the push button release is an awesome retention holster...

Btw, I am currently using a Milt Sparks IWB holster...
