Updates to Mayday Mk2 holster

 

I noted after my initial deployment of the Mayday Mk2 holster that it had a nasty habit of releasing the latch on the blaster preventing drawing or allowing the hinged muzzle to flap about.

I essentially just removed the sloped material at the spine of the holster and accidentally made it ambidextrous. The grip on the blaster is now essentially entirely on the muzzle of the blaster itself. There's precedent for that in other holsters so I'm not overly concerned about retention.


The trigger guard then also provides a very handy depth limiter to prevent over insertion and the blaster falling through. The muzzle shape doesn't make the return the smoothest but if you're trying to return this that rapidly then you've gone and goofed. Remember, the Mayday Mk2 fills a specific role for me: either as a shield busting system or a last ditch hold out scatter shot. Neither situation means return speed and transition back to primary. 

I'll go back and review my specification post and see what's next. The next game I'll be at will be Bristol Blast on 20th July at Wigton Crescent. It's the last guaranteed game I can attend due to starting the full time post in August so I'll be sure to make the most of the day.
