All 1911 peeps...stop reading here. Go no further.
Click away...or I won't be able to look you in the eye or hold my head high ever again.
Just go quietly. Now. And don't look back...
OK...
I've done a little research for a paddle holster to fit a Taurus Millennium PT145 Pro Series.
A zillion hits all turned up Fobus, and gave me a specific holster that's supposed to fit a variety of things including ALL the Pro Series, All Millennium, all the PT24/7 and the PT145.
Turns out, we had that one in stock in the shop. I bought it and took it home.
The first foray into trying the fit... not even close. So I grabbed a screwdriver to loosen the retention screws.
Nope.
Nope.
And triple Nerp... even with the screw completely REMOVED. No dice.
I turned to the intardnetz to double check... Yep. That's the right one (so says eleventybillion links), and even image search shows things fitting.
What. The. Frack.
I'm either in search of a fix, in search of a reasonable option, or in search of somebody who's got a correctly fitting one or can point me to one so I can buy it.
I have no idea why this isn't working.
The mister says maybe they changed something about the holster and now it doesn't fit the older PT145...? I've never heard that, but I suppose anything is possible. The fit doesn't even come close.
Yes, that's the backside of the trigger peeking out just at the edge of the holster...
