Re: Monica Kuehn Leather

riggergreg wrote:I'm no writer but I have to tell ya'll about my new belt, Holster, and mag pouch made by Monica Kuehn. She is a fairly new holster maker in the DFW area.
I met her through the Texas Gun Talk Forum. After seeing and hearing about her work, I ordered a complete rig and she had it to me in less than 4 weeks. She warned that it might take a bit to get it broke in and feeling comfortable, but I was amazed at how well it fit and felt the first time I put it on.
The belt is nice and stiff and supports my fairly heavy, stainless steel compact 1911 very nicely. The holster, that she calls a "Bodhi", is an IWB that is nice and slim and wide enough to spread the weight, is very nicely shaped, the stitching looks nice and strong, snaps and straps are strong and I'm sure they'll last a long time, and the fit was perfect for the pistol I use. Mag pouch is simple snap on and holds the magazine very securely.
I also own a Crossbreed supertuck and it is a nice holster, but I'll wear my Bodhi everyday over CB.
She has a few more models and colors and is building her pistol list up, so take a look at her work and send her an email. I'm sure she'll do what she can to get you set up. You may be surprised at her prices, too.

Are the straps on the Bodhi removeable? For instance, I typically wear a 1.25" belt during the week with my Dockers, but on the weekend, when I'm wearing jeans, I wear a 1.75" belt. Ideally I'd like to have a IWB holster that I can order two sets of straps for, to match whatever belt I'm wearing. I know I could just order the larger size, and use it with the smaller belt, but I think it would be more secure if they actually matched. (I'm thinking about a holster for my new J-Frame by the way...I already have a Supertuck for my XDm and my 1911.)
