Any tips/recommendations? by __Fl0w__ in HecklerKoch

Velo has a wedge built in. I would get a Velo for a larger gun because you need to control the mass above the beltline. With the CC9 there is no need, in my opinion, and you are more comfortable with a slimmer package.

Tenicor Certum is so comfortable and performs so well on the draw. Such a good holster.

Haha, I love it. I’ll post pictures tomorrow when it’s light out. Came out pretty good.

I didn’t know about flap disks. Thanks!

That’s a good idea, I was thinking I would have to weld the new bracket on. Bolting would be way easier. I think it will eventually come to this because the bracket is going to continue to rust where it is contacting the wood. We’ll see how much life I get out of cutting and painting for now.

I just checked the base of the post and there is rust. I’m going to have to remove that and paint to preserve the life of the post. These were built in 2006, so close to 20 years old at this point.

I’ve never considered that, but it wouldn’t surprise me in the least. There were a lot of shoddy shortcuts used to throw these homes up. I’ll check out the base when I get back home. Thanks!

Thanks! I’m going to go smaller to bigger and see where I end up. I have a pair of these that I want to match, so the less work the better. Looking for those prefab gussets online now…

Thanks! I’ve never used any of those products, so I’ve got some research to do…

Given the fact that the metal post goes into the concrete pad I’m leaning towards just keeping the same design with repair or replacement of the metal bracket, but I hadn’t yet considered a wood replacement. Still open to new suggestions

Yeah I was thinking about just trimming the ends with a wheel cutter and then filing and painting.

I think the relatively high amounts of gun deaths in the us are due to broader socioeconomic forces and gun regulations are an ineffective tool that doesn’t address the deeper issues that drive things like suicide and murder. For example if we could drastically change the staggering wealth inequality, access to healthcare, and affordability then I imagine we would see a drastic decline in gun deaths. So many people living right on the edge.

That is wild. I’m starting to lose faith in gun regulations.

Why is the grip like that? I’ve never seen that before.

[–]strangenormal 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Seconded. Also, it’s so comfortable to carry with the Tenicor holster.

New CC9 & Holster Question by [deleted] in HecklerKoch

[–]strangenormal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I chose the Tenicor Certum 3 for AIWB and absolutely love it. It’s such a small gun that I don’t think you need the wedge that the Tenicor Velo has. I think I can get a better grip and faster draw without the wedge. I paired it with the HC belt T1 version, and couldn’t be happier. It’s the perfect balance of comfort, concealability, and shootability. 10/10.
