Bianchi M12 Holster

I've finally got round to picking up another Bianchi M12 holster.
This time I've made sure to get the OD version instead of that horrible foliage green that goes with the UCP camo.

I snagged this off ebay, it was brand new and pretty cheap.


























































I wanted this to go with some more old school kit that I have.


The holster itself is pretty good and was a mainstay of US forces for quite a while. Specifically designed for a medium framed pistol especially the M92.
The holster is sturdy enough that it will protect the pistol from knocks and bumps, however I've been used to my Safariland 6004 and this is a very slow draw compared to that holster, but then again I'm sure that this holster was designed to keep your sidearm secure.
