 Has anyone seen any reviews on the Bobergs, even at this early stage?

No is the short answer. I don't think Boberg is at the stage where a test gun is ready to go for review.

I will defer to someone who may know differently or better than me.

 Yes, it is amazing that there are holsters for a weapon that does not exist yet.

I've read, somewhere, that dummy models have been made.

 Yes, they have the "Blue" guns they made the molds after, but concidering the backlog that the quality Holster makers seem to have, it is quite something that they made time to manufacture a holster for a model that has not been released yet.

 I wonder, in a stress situation, how many fingers I would  shoot off before I remembered how short that barrel is? Aren't they making a version with a longer barrel? It is cute and I'm sure I'll buy one.  Tom, are you going to sell these?    Gene      ps Great looking holster Corey and robert!

That is a very nice holster. Robert did a great job with the new gun.
The company was nice enough to loan Robert and I their dummy gun to try out.  Lets hope the real thing is ready soon.

The main reason I can not get into the Desert Eagle 380.
It's set up the same way.

Concur, as I have previously stated. For me, the "shooting trigger guard" (short version) is distasteful, while the long barrel version has some serious appeal.

Further, the design of the long version Boberg appears to be very innovative and, as I have previously stated, I wish Boberg well because I think they have an interesting proprietary design.

I surely agree as the Boberg does have distinctive characteristics.

I'm with you ACP.

If I ever do have to opportunity to buy one, I'm sure it would be the longer barrel -  for safety.
