Is everything okay over at Ozarks Holster Company?
I've been emailing Dustin for a couple of weeks now. No replies.
Anyone know if he's taking a break or under the weather?

Haven't seen him post on here in a long time & didn't get a reply the last time I emailed him.
Hope all is well.

I texted with him a couple weeks ago, seemed like everything was fine. He’d dropped off from posting a while ago but was still busy with his holsters. I’ll reach out to him, see how he’s doing.

Dustin isn’t always great when it comes to returning e-mails but I gave him a call last Friday to make a change to an existing order. He picked up almost immediately and was happy to help. He admitted that he’s a little behind on his orders (I’m at 2 months exactly on my order).

Thanks for the replies. I like his work so I will just be patient and hope he gets back to me.

Just wondering the same thing again. The website looks wonky or down... best holsters ever. I own a bunch. Looking at new guns and was hoping to make some orders.

Note that the thread to which you're following-up is a year and five months old. Evidence suggests he's out of the holster business, at least. See: Ozarks Holsters
Further: There were instances where he took orders, never delivered, and went radio silent. Some members that paid him in advance via PayPal were finally obliged to reach out to PayPal to get refunds. Some that paid otherwise apparently were out of luck.This message has been edited.

A year and five months. His website has been defunct for a long time now.

1 yr & 5 months old Shame. His stuff has been great for me. Makes you curious why he just dropped off the radar & out of contact.

I just read the thread u linked. How sad. I really enjoyed doing business with him.
Kinda ticks me off when a guy flakes out on deals he’s taken money for. Also passed that I recommend him all the time, when people comment on my carry rig. Had no idea he’s been out of the game. I need to buy more gun, this more holsters, and I wouldn’t have this issue.

A google search indicates his BBB rating is awful, taking money and not delivering the product.
