Vince Pinto Posted April 12, 2003 Share Posted April 12, 2003 I stumbled across these see-through holsters today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flexmoney Posted April 12, 2003 Share Posted April 12, 2003 I think there are a few companies offering them. Cen-dex was the first place I saw them too. I haven't seen them on the line yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBF Posted April 12, 2003 Share Posted April 12, 2003 But it throws a new twist in things for the " holster has to match the belt " crowd. Seriously, slightly softer than kydex? Might be worth a look. I suppose it would be coverable with magic marker... Travis F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julien Boit Posted April 12, 2003 Share Posted April 12, 2003 I saw one years ago for a CZ 75. I suppose this one was custom made by the shooter. I like the idea. I think I saw some in "Jeans" finish as well as camo, Am I right ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcoliver Posted April 14, 2003 Share Posted April 14, 2003 I think Comp-Tac also has one of those (but not listed in the site). If I can just get past the thought of "gun condom" it could be really cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbear38S Posted April 14, 2003 Share Posted April 14, 2003 Question is, will STI and SVI start making clear grips to go with them??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vluc Posted April 14, 2003 Share Posted April 14, 2003 Funny you post that. I shot an IDPA match on Saturday where one of our group had both a clear holster and a clear mag carrier...of course his second mag carrier was hot neon pink.... Looks interesting...kind of like the ASP pistols that had the clear grips so you could see the number of rounds remaining in your psitol....

Bugs Bunny Posted April 21, 2003 Share Posted April 21, 2003 "Seriously, slightly softer than kydex?" Have been using one of Frank's new "ICE" PETG holsters for a couple of months for a G34 in IDPA. PETG is not physically softer it just feels that way compared to kydex. My take on this material from using it is that it is slighly thicker than kydex plus it appears it can not be bent around 180 dereees as tightly as Kydex so it makes the holster thicker. The best thing about the stuf, IMO, is that it is also noticably slicker than Kydex. Took me quite a while to get used to how fast the gun comes out of the holster. Can't go so far as to say it's faster than the best designed Kydex but it's a different draw now: no "snap" on release like my previous KyTac Point 5 just a very smooth release once the draw force ovecomes the holsters formed-in retention. {I'm sure a "light" gun like the G34 makes this seem faster as opposed to a full-boat 1911} So far it hasn't scuffed up or picked up much grit internally compared to the other Kydex stuff I have. Have a feeling it's going to be kinder on the slide finish or bluing but time will tell........ http://www.cen-dex.com/Cen-Dex%20on%20Ice%...e%20WEBPAGE.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
