Another entry I'm seriously thinking of is the Triple-K #043 Triple Threat Holster that can be worn several ways on the belt. Just got hold of a really cherry 1950s FN Hi-Power on an Auction Arms auction and will probably order one of these for it. Again, Cowboy and Shooters Supply has it. I'm not trying to boost any particular business but they've given good service as far as my orders go and have a good variety.

And for you who may have that rare FN gun, the HP-DA or DAO Compact and don't know what the hell holster will fit it, I can give you two good choices: the Safariland Custom Fit Belt Slide Holster #5567-54-411 (a black heavy duty holster) or in nylon and cheaper, the Passport Kangaroo A-3 holster with mag pouch. The Safariland coesn'[t have a thumb strap but the Passport Kangaroo does though you're dealing with velcro- what the heck, it's nylon and cheap.

If anyone knows of another leather holster that fits this gun and has a thumb strap- well every FN HP- DA (or Browning BDA-9 Compact) owner would like to know. The companies can't seem to tell inquirers what fits it because it's a rare gun.

Best regards,
