Unless something has changed, H.B.E. hasn't been making holsters for almost 8 years now.  I really liked Eric's product.

I really hope something has changed because I have ordered and he said about four weeks.

I've used an HBE leather IWB for my 75B's for years. Beautiful workmanship and excellent function - carries those relatively heavy guns quite comfortably.

love my old HBE IWB.   Did order a replacement from Jeremiah holsters for when it needs it because Eric was not producing any at the time.
When did it change from "We the people" to "screw the people"?

Why use 911 when it's faster to use 1911 or 9mm?

Well Eric called me today.
He is making me a Black Cherry pancake with Black Shark trim for my 97BD. I told him it would be for USPSA Limited 10 so he is going to add a 10 degree cant. He is also making 2 duel mag holders to match. Lead time is 8 to 12 weeks.

I know I will never win anything but at least the the 97 will sure look good.  :D

That will be sharp looking.  You have got to post a pic once you get it. 

I was thinking about something similar with elephant trim :), then looked at my budget again :(.  One day, though, maybe.

I spoke with Eric yesterday as well. He is making a holster for my RAMI. He made one for my PCR which is why I am having another one made by him.
