has anyone made a nice holster for a nite find or any other holsters, just wondering how you would go about doing it. If anyone has could you post pictures of your finished products?

I unsuccessfully tried to make a duct-tape holster.

Alright-
1) Ragornocks made an...interesting...holster for any pistol: A sock. Comfy, stretchable, fits almost all sizes .
2)I made a duct tape holster for the NF but I think my dad has the digital camera with him right now, and he's out the house. So I'll describe how I made it.
Basically, I used a big piece of duct tape and followed the frame of the NF (sticky-side up, of course). Do this all the way around the front, leaving a hole where the barrel comes out as well as where the front of the dart holder is. After the you have a sticky-side up duct tape frame of the NF, start working back toward the handle. As far as the bottom of the gun, make sure that it is *slightly* tighter then at the part of the dart holder. (This allows it so that when you put the gun back, it sort of locks into place, but not so much that you can't get it out again). Now that you've done this, put sticky-side down duct tape on top of the previous layer. Cut the duct tape in various spots on the bottom so that the NF can slide somewhat easily going in and out, but still lock in place. Mine somehow accomplished a way so that it doesn't come out unless you tilt it in a certain way . Also, cut part of the top for the front sight to "lock" on top. Okay...that looks confusing reading it to myself. I'll see if I can edit in a picture when my dad comes back. It's actually quite primitive looking, and I'll probably try to make a better one some other day.
Hope it helped...

That is so weird I just logged on to ask if anyone had mada under the arm nightfinder holster and there's the post first thing, awesome. Yeah get some pics up if you have a chance.

You can see a holster for any pistol on Thirst and my site.
http://www14.brinkster.com/thirst13/. It is under arsenal.

Also, here are some threads/sites about holsters.

lol a sock

[Tinkerer]

here, try taking a cardboard cereal box or something, and cut it out, and masking tape it together so it fits your gun, then wrap it a few times in duct tape (for the stregnth)

Did you read the code of conduct?

Here is what you have broken.

Don't post unless you have something to say
Avoid AIM-style spelling (lol, u, ne, ppl, etc)
Use capitalization and punctuation correctly
Don't ask questions that have been answered already - use the built-in search function and try Google first

That is 4/5 of the possible rules broken under the Think Before You Post section.

P.S. Sorry if this comes out in a mean tone of voice

dont you think thats a little strict?

[Warlock]

I found that if you wear carpenter shorts, you can put the gun in the little loop that holds the hammers.

I have a pretty sweet nite finder holster set up but I don't feel like going to measure the dimensions on whim. Basically I just measured the dimensions of the gun and took cardboard from a package that I duct taped up to match those dimensions, then duct taped those two holsters to a belt. PM me if you really want to know more. ducttaped the two suckers to one of those military type belts... they're made out of canvas, is it? I don't remember. Too late here to think, especially after doing a flurry of posts after not posting in a while.

Well I wrote it so I may be a little biased. Let's see what everyone else thinks.

I use a water bottle holder that I found in my basement. It works for almost all of my guns. Im gonna find an old sock and try that too.
