Old World Holsters ???

Guyon · August 18, 2000, 02:12 PM

Anybody have any opinions or experiences with these holsters? A search here turned up nil on them. They're made in Italy and imported and sold by Michael's of Oregon--the same company that puts out the cheap line of Uncle Mike's nylon holsters. (I know most purists with custom holsters are cringing right now.)

Anyway, I bought one of these "Old World - Gunmate" models (a hip holster) for my P95 today simply because I like its shape and retention. Have a look at the holster here if you'd like:

It was also faily cheap (about $30), but the leather looked like decent quality, and it fits the gun and rides really well with a good belt. I'm just wondering how it will hold up.

I know I could get a Galco for about $15 more. But the only hip holster Galco makes for the P95 is the FLETCH, and I'm not crazy about the high ride of the FLETCH.

Any comments???
