I could have sworn that magazine was full when I headed out. This picture shows the ‘clean’ side of the Sig and the holster, that is, the side facing me and my pack. Fortunately, my holsters take the worst of the wear and damage meted out by rocks, dirt, and stones when I set down my pack. My guns aren’t ‘Safe Queens.’ They go out in all weathers and sometimes end up in the dirt with the rest of my gear.
The Sig’s been out in the rain and damp a lot recently. I researched how to fully strip it and the magazines down for cleaning and discovered that this combination of grips and frame was sold as the P938 Extreme. Hmm. I bought it new and didn’t even notice that. I just thought it was pretty 🙂
Update
- August 2025 — I’ve just discovered that the Alien Gear ShapeShift holster system no longer includes the retention holster option shown here. When I contacted them, they stated that it had been withdrawn due to safety concerns. Call me cynical, but I think it’s because they are pushing their Level II Duty holsters and Rapid Force system. If they really had a safety concern, they should have issued a recall notice. 🙁
