I just received my DM Bullard holster in the mail. I have to say that I am really pleased with it. I was looking for a good quality leather IWB holster and finally settled without regret on the Bullard. I had been looking at the well known name brands but after hearing about this one and looking at it on the website decided to try it out. The price was very competitive with all the others I had been looking at. But having one handmade and local to the area was a big seller. The holster is the 'Dual Carry'. The base price was 69.95 but then I upgraded to include a lining for an additional 25. The fit and finish on it is great. The leather is really a high quality and the craftsmanship looks great. This holster has a reinforced opening and fits my Kimber 1911 beautifully. I also purchased a magazine holster. The quality of the mag holster is great too and fits my Wilson Combat magazines perfectly. I look forward to breaking in this holster and seeing how it rides but so far so good. Bullard also makes belts and I ordered one of these as well. The belt was 59.95 but made of good quality leather and really well made. You need a good belt to hang your holster on and this one fits the bill and being made of good quality heavy leather it will break in nicely and last years I'm sure.
The service from DM Bullard was excellent. They have a really good website that provides good information on the products. After ordering I received an email notification that the order was placed. And when the product shipped I received a shipping notification and the box showed up on my doorstep the next day. The only downside might be the time it takes to receive the product after ordering. But then again I did upgrade the lining on the holster and for the belt I upgraded to a black coloring. I placed the order on May05 and received it on Jun20. But for a holster of this quality made of really good leather and fits my pistol perfectly well worth the wait.
On a final note I did order the optional leather snaps to replace the metal clips. But I think I will stay with the metal clips and see how they work. Attached are photos for review

I have two of his dual carry holsters, and I used the metal clips for a long time, but when he came out with the belt loop straps, I ordered them, and I haven't looked back since. I found them to be much better than the clips.

Re: DM Bullard Holster
okay, hopefully the photos are now attached and will show up. The first time I had a problem in that I guess the photos were to large in size. So, I had to make them smaller. I couldn't figure out how to do this so I had to wait until my daughter could come and do it for me.
And now I hope this works but it has been really difficult and slow to upload and post comments on this site. So, I don't think I will evan atempt to try this again.
This site for me is really slow to open and access.

Re: DM Bullard Holster
I've been carrying my combat commander in the dual carry with clips for about a year now. I can't imagine a concealed carry being any more comfortable than this. I drove from San Angelo to Boise, ID. back in July with it on my side the whole trip, could barely tell it was there. And same as you, the service was excellent.

Re: DM Bullard Holster
I too have DM Bullard IWB tuckable holsters for both my 1911 and my P64 (the Walther PPK holster fits perfectly). I also have mag carriers for both. His work is first rate and prices are good to boot. I always like giving a local guy my business especially when the quality and value is so good. His holsters are very comfortable and stay where they're supposed to.
