Who makes an HK 45 holster right now?
The ideal holster would be a SERPA but I could go with a FOBUS design that has no lock or snap.
Thanks for the help, Seth

I am no expert but I love the Fobus holsters. I have one for CC for my 1911 and one also for CC for my USP45C.

I have the same issue, not many choices of holsters made specifically for the HK 45.
I know Raven Concealment makes one, Comp Tac makes some (but not the MTac)
Not many Leather options for things that are not for the USP or P30 and kind of fit the HK 45..
Kevin at K&D holsters will make them if enough people express interest and ask about them. They have a great rep and aren't too expensive, not to mention their lead time is running 6-8 weeks shorter than the rest. So email them if interested
Milt Sparks doesn't currently take orders for them either, but should soon, then the 24 week wait begins..
Again I want IWB though, I have a 1911 Serpa and its really only good for the range or with a LONG coat/jacket on
hope this helps

the comptac settable cant holster works well. I have one, and it's for sale, but only because I was forced to sell my HK45.
PM if you want a deal.
the serpa for the P30 will also work with the HK45
cheers

The new Fobus holsters are much improved.

If you don't need concealment, safariland has some models available.

Are those aftermarket sights on your HK45? If so, what kind?

KILO, if you don't mind the question, what did that holster run you? That looks damned good. That's a paddle holster, right?

Rings is supposed to get an HK45, a P30 and an HK45c soon, so that means a lot more custom makers will begin cranking out leather holsters before too long. Based on that info you might go ahead and order now from anyone with a longer lead time if they will agree to it.

I'm not Kilo but I think it's the same holster as the one I have for my P30 which is the settable cant holster. You can get it for paddle, belt slide, or both.

Who are they? I haven't found anyone who will take an order for an HK 45 fullsize except K&D holsters, but they need a couple of people to express interest at the least.
A few say "soon" but K&D are the only ones I have found so far that even are making them for the HK45c. They aren't listed on the site yet but they make them, and for the P30 I believe.

My USP9SD loves it! It just clips on and off your belt with a unique tek-lock design. Draws so smooth and fast, but is anchored in tight. High quality & well made.

I talked to Ring's today and they said they are at the mercy of HK USA (who has not sent them guns to cast off of yet), so I can't give you an accurate time frame on those, unfortunately.
I already arranged it with another dummy gun manufacturer to get an HK45c when they produce it. I just got off the phone with them, and they also recently received the HK45 and the P30 to cast off of (so I requested each of those as well). They have already sent them off for casting, and depending on how long they take to cast they should be available soon (hopefully within the month). Several holster makers, both custom and standard, use dummy guns from this company to form their holsters. This means it is very likely that you will soon see gunleather for your beloved H&K pistols within the next few months!
I apologize to you for not naming specific companies that will be using these dummies, but it isn't really my place to give out that information (some folks are sensitive about sources and manufacturing processes). I can assure you that I will be supporting them (that is when I get caught up with my current back log), but it is up to you to contact your favorite holster makers to see if they have plans to support these models. Hopefully this helps with your holster search. Sincerely,
Jeff Wright

Anybody know if Bulman Gunleather is making an FBS holster for the HK45 yet?

Sorry again who are Ring's? I just haven't heard of them.

Rings Manufacturing is the company that manufactures the blue firearms simulators (blueguns) often used when training firearms retention techniques or room clearing. They are also very often used by holster makers due to the close tolerances kept in their casts.

Well, it's official. I just received dummy guns for the HK45, the HK45C and the P30. I was informed that other holsters makers' orders shipped the same day mine did so leather for your HK pistols should now be more readily available.

I ordered my comp tac paddle yesterday. I can't wait to get it in! I also called milt sparks today, they are expecting to be taking orders for the HK45/HK45c in the next week or two.

I called Blade-Tech today for my new HK45 and they said they will be ready to take orders in 2-4 weeks. He said they just received their molds.

I have a MS VM2 for my USP compacts and also am looking forward to getting one for the HK45. The blade tech IWB is decent as well.

I ordered one from Raven Concealment. It just looks nicer than the Comp-Tac and doesn't have the (Fixed?) safety issue of the Comp-Tac.
They're 25 days deep in orders, so I should get mine in a few weeks or so.

I am planning on purchasing a Raven Concealment as well. I have been using Comp-Tac holsters for years and want to try something new. Looking forward to seeing pics when you get yours in Sobriquet :).

No prob, I'll take pics when it comes. I finally ordered a new camera. I had a 2 megapixel thing that was the size of a brick. I got one of those nifty 8mp digital elphs so I can finally take macro shots.

Raven Concealment is going to be at the Combat Rifle shoot up in Michigan here in a couple of weeks, will have to check them out. I recently picked up a drop holster from Hi-speed gear, fits great!, fast fast delivery and it's well made.
Not a bad option.

Serpa for P30 works fine for me on my HK 45, no issues, Stay away from FOBUS!

Ditto.
I'm waiting on a Raven rig myself; looking forward to it coming in. Once more makers have their molds in, I'll be looking for an elephant or stingray rig for the HK45.
Fobus, quite frankly, is cheap garbage.
