In the interest of full disclosure, I have had some recent successful and prompt email communication with Josh.

October 26:
"Dear Mr. Kolbeson,
I placed order #1851 on 2/26/13. I have paid you...

Looking for a 1.25", stiff riggers belt with a cobra buckle. Has anybody seen these? I could have sworn I saw a manufacturer a year or so ago, but I didn't bookmark it, and now I can't find it, or...

I want to have two pieces of custom kydex made. One would be a shell for a Springfield 1911 with a half rail and Surefire X300 that would fit on an Old Faithful leather backer...

I found the insights in these video to be helpful regarding finger placement and the finer points of trigger finger placement, grip, and accuracy:...

(unless, of course, you had already spent all the money that you collected in advance from that year and a half-worth of orders...) What a mess.

When was your order placed, Wendell? Was it hybrid or kydex?

Thanks JBP55 and Eli, that's exactly what I needed.

I don't know about that. I would have a greed with you initially, but not anymore.
1, it's consistent (safety on when the sights are off the target and you are not ready to shoot
2, it doesn't...

I train to flick it off as soon as the muzzle is on target, and flick it on as soon as the muzzle is off target. That's just me, but it works. Pat McNamara got me in the habit of putting guns on safe...

So, while I wait for this holster that may never arrive, any of you forum members who are also holster makers or kydex benders want to make me a full-shroud piece of Kydex for a full-size 1911 with a...

They say it's good to know what you want. It seems like frequently it is a curse, as there are times when what you want, as doable as it may seem, is not actually being done at the moment.

I love...

That would be nice. There is a veritable cornucopia of holster makers out there, and so few of them seem to make what I would consider designs that are durable, comfortable, practical, and versatile....

Currently working on leather gear, tac-hybrids, and all orders with mixed leather kydex items through 10/31/2012.

I've been carrying a full size 1911 all day every day in the same position since I was old enough to carry, but a change in my TTPs about 12-18 months ago made me decide to want to start carrying...

Doc, other than this thread and stuff I recently posted, I've seen no ill will towards Josh. His site looks too nice for him to be a fly-by-night. He posted the following on Facebook...last year:
...

Jake, that sounds very familiar. Sorry, bro. I would have cancelled by now, except I really want that holster - it's exactly what I'm looking for. Tac-Hybrid IWB for a1911 Government 5" with...

I really appreciate people's thoughts here, especially those of you from the perspective of a holster maker. Like I said, I don't LIKE the wait, but I understand it. It's the lack of communication I...

Would love to see pics of you running this holster with a suppressor after you get it, as well as your impressions.

But he IS good for it? Was that recent? I ordered from him over a year ago, already paid, and still no holster, and when I inquire, I get no response. His site has said, "Currently working on the...

Greeting all! Does any one here have recent experience with Kolbeson holsters? His hybrid holsters look beautiful.
