Title: Looking for custom Leather shoulder holster for my witness model 999200
Post by: Tomcat 10 on April 15 2015 06:40:12 AM MDT
 I have been looking for a custom leather shoulder holster for my witness for quite sometime .  I was able to find just a couple for the witness 9mm , but nothing for the 10mm .   Anyone know who makes a custom leather shoulder holster for this gun ?

  TIA

Looks like a no.I've looked high and low with no success. Leather is what I'm hunting for my Stock II. Found someone local that I'm meeting next week. He'll need to keep the gun for a while but says he makes them all custom regardless. We'll see on price when we meet.

i have iwb model 3281(baby eagle full size w/rail) for my match...if it didnt have henning sights,big ass rail, and had the square trigger guard(the 1/4" shorter barrel might help too). had to saran wrap the shit outta the gun(to stretch the holster) and still has a little too much retention for the metal clip to hold.

Intercooler , Thank you for the Links .   Some of the custom holster makers make holsters for the CZ 97B , which is a 45 Auto .  I,am going to keep checking around with everyone to find out  if the frame will match close enough to my Witness to use the same holster .  When I find out the answer I will post it here .

Active pro gear makes some real nice holsters and I use some for CC. they make a very decent shoulder holster and yes for the witness.

 In my search for a quality Shoulder Holster I checked out the Alessi web site , and saw the Alessi Bodyguard . To me it looked like a super nice set up , so I checked the gun list . They didn't list my gun , but they did list the CZ 97B , so I contacted Tom at Alessi . I asked him if he thought a holster made for the CZ 97B would be a good fit for my 10mm Witness Stock II . He asked me for some pics of my gun , and said he would do some research , and get back to me . He said from the other pics he has seen that he will be able to make a Bodyguard shoulder Holster Rig , for me .
I really like the way he does business .

Before I moved to Fort Myers I was living near another Custom Holster Maker , so I called them and asked if they could make a holster for my 10mm witness , and they stated NO . Seeing how I lived near their place of operation I offered to loan them my gun , so they could use it for a mold gun . The man on the phone was very rude , and said in no way would they consider doing that . Needless to say they will never get any business from me .

Looks to be high quality and very well built. It appears they know about weight distribution and comfort.

Thank you for your input .   I was thinking the same thing , but I wanted to make sure it wasn't just me . I don't understand why you don't see more mention about this company . To me his work looks like really good quality .   I hope he will make a holster for me that will  meet my needs .  I need it for a witness 999200 , with a Viridian  X5L mounted on the rail .
