DM Bullard Holster
Posted: Sun Jun 21, 2009 3:43 pm
I just received my DM Bullard holster in the mail. I have to say that I am really pleased with it. I was looking for a good quality leather IWB holster and finally settled without regret on the Bullard. I had been looking at the well known name brands but after hearing about this one and looking at it on the website decided to try it out. The price was very competitive with all the others I had been looking at. But having one handmade and local to the area was a big seller. The holster is the 'Dual Carry'. The base price was 69.95 but then I upgraded to include a lining for an additional 25. The fit and finish on it is great. The leather is really a high quality and the craftsmanship looks great. This holster has a reinforced opening and fits my Kimber 1911 beautifully. I also purchased a magazine holster. The quality of the mag holster is great too and fits my Wilson Combat magazines perfectly. I look forward to breaking in this holster and seeing how it rides but so far so good. Bullard also makes belts and I ordered one of these as well. The belt was 59.95 but made of good quality leather and really well made. You need a good belt to hang your holster on and this one fits the bill and being made of good quality heavy leather it will break in nicely and last years I'm sure.
The service from DM Bullard was excellent. They have a really good website that provides good information on the products. After ordering I received an email notification that the order was placed. And when the product shipped I received a shipping notification and the box showed up on my doorstep the next day. The only downside might be the time it takes to receive the product after ordering. But then again I did upgrade the lining on the holster and for the belt I upgraded to a black coloring. I placed the order on May05 and received it on Jun20. But for a holster of this quality made of really good leather and fits my pistol perfectly well worth the wait.
On a final note I did order the optional leather snaps to replace the metal clips. But I think I will stay with the metal clips and see how they work. Attached are photos for review
