Holster Trade Program!

[Guest BigNoise]

Here's an idea:

Since everyone with a gun has a box of holsters shoved in the back of a closet somewhere, and they usually don't fetch a high price on the used market, I propose a trade program.

Not all holsters are bad, they just don't work for everyone!

So, let's do some trading!

Suggestions:

1) Post good pictures of your holster(s) you are willing to let go of (if you want).

2) Let everyone know what you are looking for.

3) Makes trades of comparable value.

4) Each party pays for shipping (if not a F2F).

We are all friends here, and we all have a bunch of closet queens (yes, I said it) so let's spread some leathery/plasticy love!

Really?

Not a bad idea. Just haven't got home yet. Then, have to dig in the box at the back of the closet, see what's there (if anything), that might fit this thread.

I think it will be hard to match up two people to trade. I may have a holster that several people want, but they might not have anything I want.

Best of luck with this.

I think this is a great idea. I have a Ross IWB for Glock 26/27/33 that I'd like to trade. Looking for OWB Glock 33 holster.

If you find the right mix, you could always work out a swap of more than 2 parties. I don't have the box full o' holsters yet, but I imagine I will and I like the sound of this idea.

Worst case - it goes back in the closet and both of you are only out a little time... Best case a swap works out and everything's all rainbows and kittens.

I have a box full I'm willing to try. just have to dig them out and idenify.

Glock Talk has this same kind of holster exchange program, but it's a thread of way too many pages to look through and even if somebody had what you wanted at one time, they probably don't still have it when you inquire about it. We would need it to be a mix of a pay it forward and trading post to keep up with what everybody has.

Wouldn't the Pay it Forward thread in the gear classified section of this forum be a good place to do this?

How about a "holster only" PIF thread??

[Guest BigNoise]

I think this will work and like I said, holsters don't really fetch a high price on the used market (and you never get what you think you should out of them) so why not trade them in? better than sitting in a closet.

Mods, if this needs to be moved let's do it.

This is an outstanding idea.....I'm onboard!

I'll have one as soon as I unpack all of my gun stuff...

OK, here goes. I have a Safariland Model 200, Black basketweave, Left Hand holster, that fits a Sam Browne police belt. This holster was carried on duty for a short while when I was carrying a S&W 4506. You can go to Safariland web site for a picture of this holster and what guns will fit in it, as my camera is on the fritz. More to come.

I have a galco yaqui slide (paddle) black leather for a sig 226 but it holds everything from my Taurus 709, Kahr cw45, and even my Beretta 92. I am looking for a SERPA for my glock 27.
