It didn't quite work out though. The retention strap ended up interferring with the safety in the cocked and locked position so I ended up cutting the strap off. It still has good retention and I'll just use it as a CC holster. The two holes in the body shield are from the retention strap snaps and snap reinforcement rivet that I removed after I deleted the strap.

Anyway, here's some links to the pics.

That is sharp. Too bad it didn't work out, but I have a feeling you'll overcome the issue. Really nice work, Bronson.

Actually my colors are Or, Sable, and Argent or for those of you who are not heraldricly literate Gold (or yellow), Black, and Silver (or white). The Blazon for my coat of of arms is: Or, on a saltire between in pale two reremice displayed sable, two halberds in saltire argent.

And let's not forget that I'm not the one who carries atoy gun:p
