15117[TK] Posted August 29, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2017 It's not at the belt that the problem is it's more from the belt and down it twist and looking odd like this picture.

Locitus[Admin] Posted August 29, 2017 Report Share Posted August 29, 2017 In the movie, Han and Luke had white elastic bands attached to the bottom of the holster going around the leg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locitus[Admin] Posted August 29, 2017 Report Share Posted August 29, 2017 Your other choice is basically not to use the holster during trooping, because it sucks at being a holster. Alternatively could get a new holster of some really thick and hard leather, that would help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Addertime[TK] Posted August 29, 2017 Report Share Posted August 29, 2017 (edited) Hmm... yes, I agree with Locitus. Thicker leather. Can we see the attachment side? Edited August 29, 2017 by Addertime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schmetterhemd[TK] Posted September 1, 2017 Report Share Posted September 1, 2017 Interesting question 15117. And never noticed the white elastic in Episode IV Perhaps some velcro could also help holding the holster in position without visible straps like the elastics in the film. I don't know how durable this would be, but I would give it a try if you want to holster your blaster and move around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikidymac[TK] Posted October 27, 2017 Report Share Posted October 27, 2017 How deep is your holster? I have the very rigid Anovos one and the blaster fits very deep keeping the CG low. Also the very stiff Tkittle bell helped immensely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robotster[TK] Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 (edited) I noticed that when I put my best blaster in the holster, it did the same exact thing as your picture. It is basically a combination of two problems, and both need to be addressed before the tilt/flop issue is resolved. First: Many holsters are made of very thin material. Thicker holster material is absolutely necessary to stiffen the holster. Second: Most blasters, when loaded into the holster, are top-heavy causing them to flop and/or tilt. I recently built an DLT-19 rifle. My standard "carry" blaster is a very nice design and has some heft to it. It flopped over in the holster even though I upgraded my holster. Since the blaster should be in the holster when carrying the rifle, I needed a solution. So I purchased a very inexpensive blaster (Hasbro?) and painted/weathered it. It looks just fine in the holster and weighs just a few ounces and sits in the holster perfectly. Edited June 10, 2018 by Robotster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
