I see that Matt is currently working on his January 2005 orders. A long time to wait - about the same as the LWS.380 wait.

I can't stop thinking what my next Del fatti Leather holster will be.

I really like the one you have.

Between you Matt, and Ron, I'm going to have a huge amount of holsters ;D

You might start a "Holster Outlet" for lightly used holsters. Just pass off what you don't like or use.. :D

I use all the newer pocket holsters. The trend started with your Merlin.
I have not used any of my older holsters for my Seecamp.
The R9 was new, so I have the Nemisis, and the Hedley Merlin, I use only the Merlin. I like Dave Brown's paddle holster, and use it for the R9 a lot. I have used his Kydex pocket holster for the R9, but use the Merlin more.

You should attach a copy of the holster fronts too!

Thanks all!

RJ:
Thank you very much. As usual, you give me way more credit than I deserve. I have yet to make a flawless holster but I keep on trying none the less.

Matt, I love your logo.

I will post the flip side photos when I get a chance, I have those photos on file already.

Here's the flip side. I have a few more if you want one without the card in front.

Post by: chameleon on October 06, 2006, 08:08:46 AM: Just an update:

I have been using the Matt Del Fattii ISP 4 IWB for the R9 for some time now.
It is very comfortable, yet there is zero movement of the R9.
No flopping around so to speak.
My first thought with this holster was too much leather for such a small gun, but the balance between leather and gun is great.
The leather takes a while to break in, and with each use it becomes a little easier to snap the loops.

A very good design that works.Lucky me, the last thing I needed was another holster to go into the unused pile.

I also have the BPB for the Seecamp, this holster is not getting the use it could have, probably due to the fact that the Seecamp rides in a front pocket in one of the many high quality leather holsters I have for it from several makers.
Not much to report on that.

If you are looking for a great IWB for the R9, look at the Del Fatti ISP 4.
