Kramer Leather Holster Review

I am a CCW holder and like many of you, I purchased several inside the waistband (IWB) holsters and did not like them. I felt that to be able to draw in 1.3 seconds, at least for me was difficult to say the least. Therefore, I went on a long search, speaking to fellow CCW carriers, Instructors and the internet. All I knew is I wanted something I could carry daily and know that when the need arose that I would be able to defend myself accordingly.

Like many of you, I spent a small fortune sampling different holsters. Until one day I discovered, Kramer Handgun Leather http://www.kramerleather.com I phoned them and spoke to the sales representative who went into detail on how the holsters they made were assembled. It was impressive if not by his knowledge but the fact they were American made. The only drawback was the long wait for the holster. The average wait time is 8 to 10 weeks!

I opted for the MSP Paddle Gun Holster – Horsehide, it is impervious to saltwater, which we are made of, and seems to leak out of us on hot summer days. Therefore, I thought that was probably a grand idea. In addition, the reason I opted for the paddle holster is you can remove the entire Gun and Holster in one fluid movement without ever taking your gun out of the holster. This is very important when say you arrive at the US Postal Office and have to remover your gun prior to entering. You do not want to be the one in the parking lot with your pants down and displaying a firearm. Could be a very bad day.

I received the new Kramer Holster and the day it came, I transferred my Sig Sauer P229 from the holster it was in and replaced it with the Kramer. The comfort and the fit and finish are the best that I have seen. I have worn this holster now for more than a year everyday throughout our hot summer and colder winter without one problem, even spent several days at the range with it and still not a single problem. I would highly recommend this product to everyone out there. Just be patient it is well worth the wait.
