Hey guys,

How come everyone just about makes a Askins style with a snap tunnel loop on the rear wing but the back loop is standard. Doesn't that defeat the easy on off purpose of a snap?

Is there a reason why you can't add a snap to the tunnel loop on the body so it goes on and off easy?

Just wondering

The idea is reall to be able to move the holster along your hip without having to unthread your belt to get past a pant loop. Not really for easy on/off.

ok that amkes sense. Do you believe that a easy on/off avenger style holster would not be a good option ?
just wondering since every one makes easy on off belt slides but no avengers.

It is doable, but you do end up with the extra bulk of the snaps right behind the gun. With a pancake style they are fore and aft and don't add too much.

Thanks john. I knew there must be a good reason for it.
