Disappointed in Uncle Mike's Holster
Went to Gander Mountain to purchase an IWB Uncle Mike's holster for a Sig P238, to my disbelief, "Made in Vietnam" stamped on the package and holster label. Left it hanging on the shelf and will find another option. Give me American made!

More and more good stuff is being made elsewhere nowa days. I had a lady at the last gun show I went to tell me that maxpedition gear is not made in USA anymore either. Sad face...

Most comfortable IWB holster I found for my P238 -Desantis Cozy Partner. Online about $50.

The D.M. Bullard are some nice looking holsters. That 20 week turn around may be a draw back for me. In the past, I've ordered holsters from UBG Holsters in Utah. Never dissappointed in Nate's work, will have to wait about 3 weeks for his holster but it is worth it. Thanks for the replies. I'm surprised that the Uncle Mike's Vietnam holster wasn't made from rice straw.Salty1 wrote:Look at D.M Bullard, they are Texas made, you cannot get any more American than that....

I have several ROG IWB holsters. He is outta Rosenberg, TX and his prices are very reasonable.

I recently purchased a galco pocket holster and a galco tuckable IWB holster, have been happy with both so far was around 50 bucks for each and had them in less then a week. I can try and get some pictures when I am home from work.

Crossbreed Supertuck is very comfortable for me and my Glocks.

Comp-Tac is also a Texas company.RECIT wrote:That or Tucker gun leather...
One of my IWB holsters is a Tucker "The Answer." Tucker is in Houston. (I also have a Crossbreed Supertuck for a different pistol. Crossbreed is in Missouri.)
I recently got a Comp-Tac Belt Holster for competition. Comp-Tac is in Spring, Texas.
My OWB carry holster is made by Kirkpatrick Gun Leather in Laredo, Texas.
