Go to http://www.heinie.com and check out "Whats New". This Holster has been a long time in the Design Stage. Now all I have to do is get Lou to find a few more hours in the day so he can get a batch of them made. We are taking orders if you are interested. Intially we will stock them for all 1911's and Glocks. Right Hand, Black.

Nothing new in the WHATS NEW section.
At least not the holster.

It is the very First Thing listed in WHATS NEW.

I saw it. It's beautiful. Lou is an artist.

A great looking practical holster! Anyone who has ever wrestled a stiff belt through the rear slot and the main loop of a Nelson-style holster, while trying to thread said belt through a trouser belt loop between the two, will appreciate the design.

Those who find the procedure I outlined above easy and simple might want to check with Cirque du Soleil...they're always looking for good contortionists. :wink:

I think Bruce would approve.

For some reason that I don't know, the page wasn't loading completely yesterday. Today it did. Found the holster! Looks to me that Mr. Alessi did it again. Very nice.

Thanks Guys, That holster was just a natural progression from the Nelson Professional, DOJ, with a combination of the CQC/S thrown in to alieviate the aggravation that Rosco described above. I always had a problem threading a DOJ style holster. I sure hope Bruce would approve. He was WAY ahead of his time, and we lost him WAY too soon.

Tell you what, I was listing my specs for an holster the other day, and that is so close I may as well cancel the idea of having one done custom. Anyway, is it just me or does that have a slight cant to it, like 5-8 degrees? Is it also a bit lower riding than the DOJ? (I think that is a good thing, so I hope so. :smile: )

A similar holster with the cant is the ACP/s by Alessi which I sell at BCP. The DOJ is a straight drop, vertical rig.
