Custom Holsters

Post by Spencerman

I just thought that I would post this link for anybody who hasnt found them already. http://www.escortgunleather.co.uk/

You may or may not read in one of my other posts about the leather holsters that these guys can supply, and the prices are very good. I have always got all of my leatherwear from them and shall continue to do so.

Although the website features mainly the western range that they do, Escort have been making modern holsters for a long time, and in my opinion are one of the best holsters I have ever used and seen. They do a most excellent holster called the Ghost, which is primarily a shoulder holster that has a horizontal position or inverted vertical. This can be easily converted into a belt holster by detatching the strap fasteners in a matter of seconds. You can also add extra magazine pouches etc to the holster using these same fasteners. The actual holster itself is moulded to the shape of your gun, so if you wanted one for an Automag, they could do it, and it would fit like a glove. It has quick release thumb snaps with a secondary fastener, so there is no chance of accidentally releasing your gun.

They can also create a complete custom design for you if you wanted.

All holsters are available in black or tan, as you might expect.

Here are some pictures of a holster that I had made for my PPK.



Notice the two different positioning poppers on the back. These can also attach accessories.





It can easily accomodate the gun holstered comfortably with the silencer screwed on.

Here is the same model holster for my P99.



This next picture shows the rear of the gun (front of the holster). You can see the quick release thumb snap on the left, and the security fastener is done up on the right. This stops me from accidentally realsing the gun if the thumb snap gets caught on a jacket or something.

Even if I'm not a fan of holsters, I gotta say this one looks fine

I do like holsters and that one looks superb, i still have a bianchi one for the S&W M19 i used to own, takes my Kokusai python so can still use it.

By the way is that a airsoft blowback P99

Post Spencerman

No. Both the PPK and the P99 are real guns, although I do have an airsoft blowback with screw in silencer. It is almost identical to the real gun except for the stamp that says made in Japan instead of Germany, and a little faintly inscribed trademark licence thing on the front right of the gun. The BB gun even has the loaded indicator on the rear of the gun. I have always been somewhat of a fan of Walther guns, in particular the P99. I never got round to getting a P88 though. I would quite like to get the limited edition P99 with the On Her Majestys Secret Service words engraved onto the frame along with the British Intelligence logo, and the words One In A Thousand on the right of the frame. I have only seen one of these and was too late to buy it. If you have never seen one, it is worth doing a search for a picture of it.

I take it these are deacts mate or have you found a loophole. how good is the airsoft P99 as i would not mind getting one.

Post by Spencerman

Yes, these are deacts, although there is a slight loophole reguarding barrel length, but I am sure that you are aware of that.

The BB gun version is very good. It has to be said that it is the most realistic looking, feeling and functioning BB gun I have ever seen, and the screw in silencer is fun. It is not the most powerful one, and you cannot use the more powerful green gas in it, but all the markings and stamps are present where they should be, as they should be, and even the serial numbers are as they should be. If you like the P99 then dont hesitate to get one.
