    First off - awesome video, kid! I like how you came right out and admitted when you made a mistake and then explained the steps you used to correct it. Simply figuring out how to do all that stuff on your own is impressive in itself and I can see you really going far if you keep practicing. I've got a buddy that recently started his own holster company, making them out of Kydex. It can be very profitable if you have a good product. Iv'e been looking for a way to incorporate a secondary holster type system in my vehicle at work. I may just end up using your idea to make a vehicle-mounted holster for one of my firearms. Keep up the good work!

  • @andrewhedman7295
    @andrewhedman7295 Před 6 lety +4

    Nice! I’ve made some kydex holsters but never thought of using PVC.
    A few pointers: tape a small wooden dowel that runs from the front sight to the rear sights, that way there is a channel for the front sight to travel through. Banging it on the edge of the pvc will mess it up after a while. Not that big of a deal for airsoft guns, but I’m sure you’ll be making these for real firearms one day. Also, instead of cutting out spots for buttons, like safeties and mag releases, cover them and bend the pvc out there, that way it won’t get pressed by the pvc or by the wearer’s clothing or other objects. You can get a really nice fit by placing the hot plastic with the gun inside it in a folded towel, with another towel on top, then standing on it with a plywood board. Finally, use Chicago screws instead of rivets. Most come with rubber grommets, so you can get a perfect fit and you don’t have to start over if you put one in the wrong spot.

    Awesome application of PVC. I used this info to build a molded holster for under the dash of my truck. The fit and placement are perfect. I'd wanted something like this for years but could never find a commercial holster that fit or conformed just right.

    I agree with the training of keeping the finger off the trigger, BUT, I am here to thank you for an excellent video, AND an excellent idea. I am constantly searching for simple, effective, ways to self-build useful items. I have looked (and not found until now) a perfect holster for front pocket ccw of a 9mm that I have carried for a couple of years. After watching the video, I went out in my shop and made a holster out of a piece of pvc pipe that I used your concept, and a pattern off a leather one I had built, and WALAHH! A perfect holster that looks like a wallet from the outside, stays open to the inside for re-holstering, and is more light-weight and less bulky than my leather one. Thank you. I also molded an axe sheath that needs no holder strap because it is molded to fit the axe and open on 3 sides, but snaps firmly around the axe head.Thank you again!

    Very well done, Comments are for putting our 2 cents on your procedure. Last month I bought a cheap toaster oven at Wal- mart for 20 bucks. This makes heating the larger sheets and areas a lot easier and more even. The big thing with ovens is bring the heat up slowly so you don't over heat it.. Keep making holsters .. Your doing great. You might try the leather rivets from there too for smoother finishes.

    Great job! That is an innovative use of plastic, if I've ever seen one. Next time you're by Ace Hardware, you might look into "Chicago Screws." They sit a little flatter than the pop rivets. I'm going to give your technique a try, but I think I'll line it with some suede, just to avoid scratches.

    You are a very creative young man, and you have given me some great ideas for making "holsters" for my woodworking tools (as well as handguns).
    The first area of improvement I would suggest investigating is the rivets. Someone below has already commented on the drawbacks of the pop rivets. I would suggest that you investigate the use of brass rivets that are hammered. Or try the PVC cement that is used for PVC pipe (sold in every hardware store). Either of those could give you a protrusion-free holster.
    Despite my suggestions for improvement, I think you have done a fantastic job of developing a system for holster building.

    My friend, I am a very picky person when it comes to holsters and I'm impressed. PVC pipe! Who knew and unless you live in Alaska or Iraq you don't need the temp extremes of kydex. My advice is after you get your folds mark for belt loop holes then drill out the holster rivets for much easier belt loop riveting. Its a trick I do on my leather, only I use copper rivets instead of pop rivets.

After watching your video, I went to Harbor Freight, purchased a $ 9.00 heat gun. Took a scrap piece of PVC drain pipe. (IMPORTANT TO USE DRAIN PIPE, NOT SCHEDULE 40 PVC) Made a perfect holster. I use my home made holster and sold the rest on Craig's List. Note: during the forming process I covered my Sig with a layer of aluminum foil to help reflect heat so not to harm the grips. Many Thanks, DC.

    @southernexposure123 Před 6 lety

    Good job. There's a couple of things you probably already thought of. You can drill really small holes in the PVC first to keep the bigger bit from drifting whenever hole placement is really critical. The other is if you make the initial assembly with screws you would have an easier time getting rivets in the belt loop. Then just take out the screws and put rivets where the screws were.
