I tried a DAA Alpha-X with a RedBack insert. I don’t like race holsters though, I eventually had a holster made by a local guy that builds holsters. It’s very simple, but it works great. I have heard of others using the Guga Ribas Neo GX holster, I don’t have any experience with it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ordered a custom one from Denmark, but haven't been able to the gun to test the holster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t live in the USA, otherwise I would send my pistol to them for a custom fit holster. Maybe if one of the US guys has one and ships it in, we could have a bunch made/distributed.

I belive its DKYX. They made me a great TQ holder. I have started with the Guga Ribas Race Holster. It is safe and fast but the adjustement is takeing some time. Now run the Guga Ribas Neo. Ist Looks funny but it is my Favorit now. I just like „closed“ Holsters more than Open race Holsters. cheers, Kommbat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long do you load your rounds? I can not confirm that. We have tried every ammo brand we could get our hands on and never run into a single problem with any of our guns. As for bullet weight... 2 of my boys like 145/147gr, one just changed to 130 and I rather like light bullet weights. 115 is great but I also shot 124gr S+B bulk box ammo. What we don’t recommand is this MaxxTech ammo. We belive that it is unsafe. it’s the Indian, not the Arrow this is defenatly the downside of the Redback. You can’t blame the gun anymore cheers, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Lee at ASL was just trying to sell me more Fiocchi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asking since I consider changing to factory (move to smaller house) but really hesitate when I compare 147 at 132 PF in my Shadow 2 compared to factory Geco's... I feel extra recoil slows me down, Or is it just a matter of getting adjusted and should't I be worried? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personaly have the feeling, that the soft, long stroke, dipping 147gr is slowing me down...Hahahah.... I rather run 115gr in my opinion it’s tracks the sights better. cheers, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
