How to make an OWB Kydex Holster

In this video we show you the tips and tricks on how to make and perfect an owb kydex holster

[@ryco1865]

Thanks, I made holster for my Taurus I'm proud of after watching your vid.

[@crypto_pinto2660]

Well thanks to this video I may have found another new hobby on top of my leather work

[@papadozaemm4991]

Where did you get your spool of spacers?

[@straightup937]

Nice job dude..!

[@shaunb5126]

I'm liking your videos. I think it would be interesting to see a dual gun, small of the back, palm out, IWB setup. Preferably for M&P 9 2.0 Compact 3.6" guns. 😉 What are your thoughts on one of those as opposed to two separate holsters behind the back?

[@FalTacUnlimitedLLC]

One of my very first holsters was a taco for 2 fnx 45s for small.of back lol there's a couple ways to go about it. You can form it and make one holster. Or you can make 2 separate holsters and use a backer to connect them which allows them to flex as well. If I were to do that again, I'd go for the flex for user comfort

[@triumphmanful]

learning all I can before I make my first holster. What is the reason for all the blue tape ? Can I set rivets without a press ? I have tools to set rivets in leather. Can I use them for Kydex ?

[@FalTacUnlimitedLLC]

Blue tape sets the kydex off the firearm so it doesn't scrape. Gives more room. You can set rivets without a press but it's more of a pain and cumbersome

[@loushackelford728]

How would you work a holster set up for a gun with a thumb safety?

[@phoenixholsters]

What size rivets are you using to accommodate for the belt clip hardware?

[@FalTacUnlimitedLLC]

8-10 Eyelets on everything

[@tanawat254]

Colt cobra 22lr please.

[@kyleolsen1764]

Can you vacuum press, an outside the waistband holster?

[@FalTacUnlimitedLLC]

Yes. Taco and pancake style. Newer videos have them

[@rohnek2]

Hey Brotha man, im new to holster making, with the press, i have that same foam, does it matter which side you use? one side is slightly different in texture than the other?

[@sfcasarez]

What are you using there on that spool for your retention spacers?

[@FalTacUnlimitedLLC]

Part number 65112 on amazon. Continental washer and overflow tubing

Where did you pick up that rivet setter? Not the press, but the actual two piece thing?

[@FalTacUnlimitedLLC]

They have the at holstersmith.com and diyholster.com I have a set of each.

[@shortmag429]

another great vid Iggy, i learned a few things i'm going to try on my own OWB process...

[@BamaChad-W4CHD]

I can watch these videos nonstop. You are a wizard man. You definitely earned my sub. I'm also glad I watched you making holsters. I would have had no clue why something like added a flashlight fit would cost more. I knew it didn't use extra kydex to make it more expensive. Now I realize the extra work and time put into things like flashlight and Suppressor sights fitting.

[@FalTacUnlimitedLLC]

Definitely a lot behind it. And thank you!

[@mxclr8]

did you make the jig for the rivet holes? whats the measurement center to center vertically for the rivet holes? thanks

[@dRoPaCiD7]

So how can I order an owb with an open bottom and 10 degree cant rmr cut and low sweat guard for a g43x like your work

[@FalTacUnlimitedLLC]

Go to faltacunlimitedllc.com and find the appropriate category. Theres a note section as well. You can add open bottom and 10⁰. And thank you
