15 - Are there any safety warnings on your products?

Great care must be taken when handling, storing or moving firearms or when placing or removing a handgun from a new holster.
Never put a loaded pistol into the holster without testing first the fitting. It’s the user’s responsibility to check personally that the firearm and the holster are compatible.
When placing the gun into the holster, especially when the holster is new or is in a rigid material, support the pistol hammer with your thumb finger and insert it carefully.
When choosing a product, consider first how you dress and how you carry your firearm.
Before using your new holster practice drawing the gun: the holster will adapt better to the firearm and you’ll know better the product.
The firearm and its accessories should be regularly checked to taste their correct work.
Holsters should never be alterated because modifications could cause accidental discharges.

16 - My leather/cordura holster is too tight! What's the best way to break it in?

All our leather holsters are hand fitted and part of the production process includes a wet molding of the holster. One of the side effects of wet molding is a consolidation of the leather fibers, which causes “shrinkage” of the holster. This is a natural process and your gun will fit in the holster perfectly with use. This does not represent any defect of the holster. It is important, when holstering your gun for the first time to try several times to insert the gun into the holster naturally without forcing it. Otherwise, it may be very difficult to remove the gun from the holster.
If your new holster is too tight, please follow the simple steps to break in your holster:

Step 1
Place the unloaded gun in a thin (0,5/1 mm) plastic bag.
Step 2
Put the bagged gun slowly into the holster. Twist the gun gently side-to-side to minimize tearing of the bag.
Step 3
Once the gun is completely seated in the holster, twist it about 1/16” in both directions 6-12 times.
Step 4
Allow the bagged gun to sit in the holster at least for a couple of hours.
Step 5
Remove the gun from the holster.
Step 6
Put the unloaded gun into the holster again, it should fit better now.
Step 7
You can repeat the above steps until the holster is broken in to your satisfaction.

You can follow these steps with a cordura holster, too.
