PMI-1 Holsters

Any good holsters for a k-framed PMI-1? Or is generally to big and heavy to use a holster?

Thanks

I use an adapted Zeus holster for my PMI-1. I'll get some pictures of it for ya when i get home from work later.

It is a little heavy, but if you use it with a harness or a tac vest you should be okay. It will definitely pull your pants down and it does bang around on your knee a bit. You just have to find a comfortable way to wear it.

Ha, I'm looking for exactly the same thing (A leg holster for my K-Framed PMI-1, since the scabbard turned out to be too unwieldy).

Did you just cut a hole in the bottom of the Zeus holster, or something else? I'd like to avoid that (So I'm not banging the muzzle all over the place).

The holster I'm using is open bottomed. What I did was put the PMI-1 in it, and sewed a straight line up alongside the pump handle. This basically causes the pump handle to seat in the holster. I keep forgetting to snap a picture of it, I'll try to remember when I get home later today. Mind you my PMI isn't k-framed, but should still work.

I use canvas M2 50cal cleaning pouches for my P68SC:


I got em 4 for $10 from the sportsmans guide, but they don't have any more. M2 Browning MG .50 Caliber has them as

C64274 Cleaning Rod Canvas Pouch (M-15) $5.75


They have top and bottom loops on the back and a belt loop, so they work as a back holster or hip. Not as nice as better materials but a cheap and handy backup.

I use a cordless drill holster I picked up at the local hardware store,it's a perfect fit and angles it to a comfortable position too.Now granted I have a custom K-framed PPS Superstocker and not a PMI-1,but,the length of it is roughly the same.

Chaos: How well does the drill holster hold your marker when you run? I'm trying to holster my two Squalls.
