I was hoping someone would have better news for an update, I need to order another one of his holsters. | |||

At this point that sounds like an unwise idea. There are plenty of reputable gunleather makers that do good work. "America is at that awkward stage.

I'm thinking since he hasn't responded to PAYPAL, he is out of business. If you're goin' through hell, keep on going. Don't slow down. If you're scared don't show it. You might get out before the devil even knows you're there. NRA ENDOWMENT LIFE MEMBER | |||

I'm trying to find the copies of my order, I can't remember how I paid. (which makes it hard to get my money back. lol) ETA: Either way it went through PayPal, so I've started that process. Won't be the first time I lost money on holsters, the last one being many years ago now, taking a beating on some custom leather work. _____________________________________________________ Sliced bread, the greatest thing since the 1911. | |||

I didn't have a Paypal account when I ordered my holster, so when I went ahead and set one up last week they didn't have any record of my transaction from January. So I guess I'm screwed. Thanks, Ozark. | |||

I have several of his holsters and he worked with me on one for a certain type I wanted. His work was excellent. I dont think he has any real obligation to me or SF members (who supported him a lot) but letting us know what happened would nice. Might even be considered the right thing to do.

Unfortunately not uncommon for small fly by night holster makers. Go silent and crash & burn with regularity. | |||

I wouldn't call this guy "fly by night" though. That's a bit rough.  For years he made great stuff and gave every SF member that asked for it a 10% member discount. For all we know he died or is in a coma somewhere. | |||

From everything I know about Dustin, he is an honest, straight-up guy. You (PaSig) have voiced what I have been afraid of -- Dustin is, for some reason, unable to respond to phone or email. הרחפת שלי מלאה בצלופחים | |||

Dustin years ago, 2013 I believe, hit me with an instant karma when I had inquired on the forum about a decent sheath/holster for my leatherman to use while out at sea. He offered out of the blue to make me a kydex sheath for it. To this day it's still one of the most useful things I've ever been gifted. It gets used in a very harsh environment and is still perfect. I use it every day on the ship and would feel almost incomplete without it since I typically use this leatherman daily. Dustin is the man. From 2013:  And here it is right now as I just took it off my belt:  This message has been edited.

Anyone want to volunteer to track down Dustin, in real life, and see if he is in need of any assistance? I believe some of you may have resources not available to us civilians. I consider that situation more likely than him just suddenly forgetting his friends and obligations. Bruce "The designer of the gun had clearly not been instructed to beat about the bush. 'Make it evil,' he'd been told. 'Make it totally clear that this gun has a right end and a wrong end. Make it totally clear to anyone standing at the wrong end that things are going badly for them. If that means sticking all sort of spikes and prongs and blackened bits all over it then so be it. This is not a gun for hanging over the fireplace or sticking in the umbrella stand, it is a gun for going out and making people miserable with." -Douglas Adams “It is just as difficult and dangerous to try to free a people that wants to remain servile as it is to try to enslave a people that wants to remain free." -Niccolo Machiavelli The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all. -Mencken | |||

The last address I have for him is a PO box in Nixa MO. הרחפת שלי מלאה בצלופחים | |||

I did some digging and it appears he may still be in Nixa. And I found where he may be working. I wont put the info out there, since the info might provoke unintended consequences. If you dig on-line, you can probably come up with the same info I have. But tread carefully. End of Earth: 2 Miles Upper Peninsula: 4 Miles | |||

If the place you’re referring to is abbreviated ‘CM’ it may be an old listening as that’s where he was before going into full-time holster making. That said it was an amicable parting so he may be back. Again, I know there were more personal issues going on that he was working through, so it may have been a combination of factors that lead to dropping out of communication.

Sad, was hopeful to add a P365 hosted from him to my excellent P2000SK holster. | |||

That sucks. I noticed his website was down a couple weeks ago. I was trying to show my MIL his “nolster” and convince her she didn’t want just a clip for IWB carry. I emailed him and didn’t receive a response. Making holsters or not, I hope he’s okay. | |||
