rod.  Call one of the holster makers, like Robert at Meco Holsters;  he could help.

or try this; however, you may have to be in LE or the military for this one.

Duncan's Custom makes/provides aluminum cast versions.  Their ability to maintain the specs of a gun have been somewhat lacking on occasion.  In addition, they've reduced their inventory/availability of guns substantially over the last 6 months or so.  You would be unable to add an accessory (such as a laser/light) to any of their guns.

Ring's Blue Guns does a much better job at maintaining specs of the gun, as well as a slightly larger inventory.  You can add an accessory to any of their guns.

Blackhawk offers dummy guns, as well as ASP (red guns).

There have been some less than complimentary critiques about  Botach Tactical service in the past but I have had very positive experiences with them. Their inventory and product selection is quite good and the prices are low.

Rod , While I too have wanted a cast or blue R9 . When ordering one . Be 100 % certain that the one your paying for is an EXACT copy of the R9 . I have seen one blue Sig P238 on YouTube . The Sig P238 posting by PhillyEDC clearly shows a kydex holster he made using a blue gun . Only to later purchase a real Sig P238 and find the two examples to be different in size . Just a heads up . Good luck on the hunt .

rod m1:  The only place that I know of that had the dummy gun version was Duncan Customs.
