Got a new OWB holster for my Ruger 9e a couple days ago. This is the second one I've bought from Diamond D up in Wasilla, AK. Beautiful workmanship from those folks, and rides really well. I don't want this post to devolve into some political thing about carrying a weapon (although I do), this is just about the holster craftsmanship.

Looks like some pretty nice workmanship. Hard to find that these days.
Looks comfortable too!

Are you familiar with Diamond D? Not many folks are.

If you're in the market for top quality gun leather, you can't beat DD. But be aware that they don't do custom embossing or other frivolous things. Their stuff is serious gun leather for serious people. Takes about 6-8 weeks from the time they get your order. Take a look. :)

ETA: Here's the IWB I bought last year.

New belt to go with new holster arrived Friday, so loaded it up. Maybe I can go to a BBQ now without being embarrassed. :wink: The buckle is one from my USMC days.

Don't have any pistols, just 6 rifles and shotguns so I don't need a holster. However, I do appreciate the workmanship on that one..........very neat work! Enjoy!

No need to be. Wasn't always this way, and there are still many places we can't (legally speaking). But many States are far more restrictive than MS. They have their own reasons and their own population to deal with. :|
