    Just busy fashioning a drum mag, to be pinned of course.

    Unfortunately I could not find a suitable light/laser combo.

    Oh, you laugh... but thats exactly the adjustable stock solution I would like to get working. Can't figure out how to do it, however.

    I was thinking about this all day today.

    I drew a little sketch and it looks like this holster definately wont work for me.




    To get the muzzle to clear the top of the holster I would somehow have to get my elbow above my shoulder. Is there something I am missing? Or do we need to find a way to get the holster lower off the belt?

    Funny... I was thinking the same thing but decided I'd draw it from the opposite side like a sword.

    BabySeal,
    What I'm thinkin is that, the reason the top/front of the scabbard is cut so low is not only for the rear sights but so that the rifle will clear the scabbard sooner upon drawing it. I would imagine that drawing upwards then slightly forwards would be the way to go. In my mind its not so different than drawing from a hi-ride pistol holster; however, not having toyed with a mares-leg, I could very well be off base
    As for getting it lower off the belt, I think the only practical set-up is with a drop-leg. At least with a drop-leg set-up the butt wouldn't be way up around your mid torso.
    Cheers!
    If you eliminate the impossible whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth-Spock

    Well remember the holster is cut away about 10 inches above the bottom on the front. The holster is supposed to sit low - a gun belt always sits low. So really - You just pull it up enough to come thru that front slit and you don't have to move your elbow very far at all.

    Hmm... Its hard to say. I dont like the idea of a saggy belt though.

    It might work for me. I think I need a leg drop holster though.

    the way the belts for these holsters are designed is that they go over your normal belt. (in case you didnt know)...

    I know. But I am far from Steve McQueen. Havent we evolved a more practical way of doing this? Or is this one of those situations wher ethe good old way is the only good way?
