SolCan SAM 1911 Thunderbolt/Seraphim archangel- HOLSTERS, ((PICS UP))

Looks good to me but I have a question. I've changed on the ambi safety on my gun to something that has a wider paddle. Have you left a generous amount of room in that "cup" you have over the thumb safety or am I likely going to have to do some "whittling"?
 
I can probably Mold a larger safety "Cup" if requested,

Or could Trim the sweatguard down to accommodate an over sized safety

The vast majority of owners will not have changed that safety I did so because I broke the stock item with some clutziness and then I chose the EGW because of its "bullet proof" design

The edge of the EGW protrudes .41 out from the frame whereas the stock's outer edge is .38 from the frame so the difference isn't huge. Maybe you can see how much wiggle room you have now.
 
no worries,
Yup i'll check out the clearance for the EGW safety see if it'll fit, but i can always mold a higher safety pocket if its not deep enough.

I received my SoleyCanadian Seraphim Archangel holster "naked" as I had other plans I wanted to pursue specifically a hanger arrangement as I don't like the Blade-tech stock DOH and much prefer a model marketed in the US but impossible to find here. I had discussed this with Tim and linked him to the hanger I have on one of my other holsters. I plan to use this on all of my rigs in time. Tim was kind enough to provide me with Kydex scraps for my experiments.

The Holster I received was excellent but I set out to improve the rig to approximate the commercial models available elsewhere.

Here are a few pictures of my efforts. The materials used included a Tek Loc, some scrap Kydex, a few pcs of hardware, some spacers I had from other equipment and a tube of Gorilla Glue. Note that I use thumbscrews in preference to the usual Philips screws as they are easy to adjust "on the fly".







 
Looks good hercster!,
If there's enough interest we could make a hanger much like the BSPS Boss DOH Hanger, if there's interest..

I can tell you that a lot of shooters don't favour the Blade-Tech hanger. I have one of the Boss hangers; it is very good and that's what inspired my DIY effort. In order to appeal to shooters in general, the flexibility of the BOSS would be important. I would have purchased a second BOSS but after exchange, shipping and possible taxes it would have been pricey. The BOSS obviously works with the BSPS holster but also fits any Blade-Tech as well.
