The comments say it is a Fobus. However, many folks make the mistake of calling any plastic that houses a gun Kydex. Fobus says they use a space age high density plastic that is injection molded. ABS is too brittle. I'd venture to say that it is a custom blend of Zytel which is what most polymer frames are made of. Zytel is a fancy marketing name for nylon that is reinforced (and stiffened) with glass.
Yes, the first exchange of comments below the video were between me and the person who posted the video. Notice the identical avatars for my posts here, and my posts in the video comments. I asked him at the top what brand it was, and he told me "Fobus", and then explained the point of failure.
