Free For All Friday 12-19-2014: Last resort for holsters…

DragonHolsterThis is it. The last FFAF before Christmas. It’s also my wedding anniversary. Everyone send your congrats and/or condolences to Mrs. Noob. She’s been legally required to put up with me for 3 years now. She put up with me voluntarily for quite a few years before that, mind you.

We only have one question this week so I’ll make this brief because wife aggro…

I have not been able to find an ankle holster for my Derringer, how hard would it be to make one and any suggestions on how to do it. -Fred S.

I remember you and I talked about ankle holsters a couple of FFAFs ago. I’m genuinely not surprised to find out you’ve had some trouble finding a derringer ankle holster in stores because of their “specialty item” status. That really only leaves the custom option. The good news is, building a holster is easy in and of itself. The bad news is that building a good holster takes a great deal of practice. Far be it from me to turn away someone from a potential new hobby, I think it would be a better idea to seek out a local custom holster shop. You’re in Northeast Florida so the good news is there’s a metric ton of custom holster companies in that area. One of those are my good buddies at Dragon Holsters. Stop by their shop in Orange Park and bring your Derringer. They’ll fit you with a holster that’s not only custom shaped to your gun but probably to your ankle as well.

For those who are having a similar problem, there are custom kydex shops all over the country. Give them your support. Local companies appreciate it.


Thanks for the questions!
