Just Got This in the Mail Today
You gotta show me how to do that. If I could reload 9 or 45 less than the cost of 22 I may also be anti 22.

Sig Sauer 522 carbine
Good point, but my mall ninja obligations require me to be fully railed at all times. Actually $159 is not all that bad if that is factory from Sig. I heard of some guys use the cheap airsoft stuff and modding it to fit. Makes sense if it's just a 22lr.

Sig and HK owners, why did you feel it was worth paying more for your gun?
Great point! And to add to this the gun does hold its value if it's a decent brand. So really the cost of gun less resale value amortized over that many years. The competitions, ammo, classes can never be recouped. But please don't remind me ever again how much money I spend on ammo, competitions, and other costs that I'll never get back, hahaha!

Sig Sauer 522 carbine
Thanks. I have seen the tactical model with the rail. Can you add the rail on as an accessory later?

Does Sig actually make the 522 or is it made by Umarex or some other company?

Bladetech Kydex Holster Owners Please Advise
I'm using a t-shirt as a reference so maybe that's not the best way.

Maybe a little tighter but it's negligible. You still can't conceal carry with it. Prints way too much. If you have a Serpa it's the same profile for the most part.

Definitely not a concealment holster. Drawing from it is nice. I'm not sure if I'll even use the DOH attachment just cause I'm so used to using paddle holsters. This is much easier to take on and off and it takes up less room in my range bag though that may not matter to most of you guys. Very pleased with this set up. This is the Revolution holster from Bladetech.

Yeah they have the TLE RL II which is what I selected. I guess it is possible Kimber is off but I figured most holsters of this type are usually loose enough to fit an array of 1911s.

Well that's gotta be some of the best customer support I've seen, they contacted me before I did them! Thanks Tessa, will reach out to you guys.

The other thing is that there are not many HKs at matches. They are definitely the minority. I think I've seen a total of like 3-5 in all the matches I've shot over the last year an a half, but then that is just my observation.

I have a Serpa too and the one thing I do like about it is it barely makes contact with the gun. The other injection molded ones I have don't either. In fact I have a cheap itac button release for my Kimber now that doesn't wear much except maybe the tip of the gun just a little. I could try modding this a bit but to be honest I'm not very familiar with kydex work. I'll contact them and see what they say. Least I can still use the DOH and Techlock on my Revolution Holster.

I don't necessarily disagree even having owned both HK and Sig. But there is a driving force that compels people to spend the extra money. Just wanted to see the different reasons. Beretta is actually a gun I feel that has the refinement of the HK/Sig without the heavier price tag.

Oh I didn't know you only had 30 days. Thanks for the heads up! Sorry to hear bout the Beretta.

So I finally got my Bladetech DOH holster for my Kimber TLE RL II. Waited over two weeks and it was pretty costly comparatively speaking. I went and test fit the gun. Was a little tight. Moved it in and out a few times. Take out the gun and what do I see? A light, but noticeable wear mark from the muzzle to the ejection port on the top right side of the gun. At first I thought it was just something that would rub away, but it would not. The bluing was definitely rubbed off a little. Keep in mind this is just in test fitting. I never drew the weapon once from the holster. Only test fit. I tried loosening it, but then the retention is simply not enough and that "hot spot" is still kinda there. Did you guys notice anything like this? I've never heard of any issues with Bladetech and in fact I own a Revolution (injection molded) model and am very pleased with it. Needless to say I'm pretty disappointed. I'm gonna write them and let them know what happened and I guess we'll see where it goes from there. Kinda sucks.

Recommend holster for M9A1
If you get a Bladetech I'd recommend the Revolution model. It's a standard injection molded holster. I don't think the kydex ones are worth the extra cost having owning both. Also look intoi Uncle Mikes. Same thing as the Revolution model just 10 bucks cheaper.

Please stop reloading ammo, it's dangerous.
That's just illegal in the gun community.

That's not legal in NJ. You should reconsider this action.

Yes my 228 definitely has the most refined trigger I've felt outside of my 1911. Good point about the Sig polymers being on par if not cheaper than other Polymer guns. Didn't look at it that way.
