OVERALL: This is my first purchase from DME. I was attracted to the site because DME offered so many different options (different lights, lasers, red dots, mounting options, etc.). This allowed me to get exactly what I wanted in one place without having to make compromises, a feature very few other holster makers could offer. The holster and mag pouch were of excellent quality. The price, while on the high end of the scale, was consistent with the quality. The 15 week wait almost sunk the deal. I understand the owner wants to have work waiting for him. I get that. However 15 weeks seems excessive to me. Were it not that DME had exactly what I wanted I would have looked elsewhere. The speed clips were especially interesting to me. They have lived up to my hopes.
IMPROVEMENTS/SUGGESTIONS: I was carrying a Glock 19 but wanted to go to something lighter. I have large hands and a Springfield Hellcat is a tiny gun. When I tried to draw the Hellcat from the holster the knuckle of my middle finger came in contact with the holster body in front of the rear speed clip. It peeled the skin off my knuckle and drew a small amount of blood. I used a Dremel to smooth the area but the knuckle still contacts the holster. The attached photo gives an idea of how the holster could be relieved in this area to prevent this. I understand that not everyone has large hands but for a premium price there should be a product that is useable for folks with hands on the larger end of the spectrum. I will have to relieve the holster body in this area myself to make is comfortable to use.
FINAL THOUGHTS: Would I buy from DME again? Yes. They offer a high quality product at an acceptable price. I hope that this review will bring some change in the design of the holster so that future purchases will be absolutely perfect right out of the box.

Great product and service. Came to DME from CZ’s website as they listed them as one of their recommended custom holster providers for their products. I have a CZ SP-01 tactical with extended barrel and raised sights to accommodate an optional suppressor. There are no aftermarket standard stock holsters that fit it well (at least none I could find). Also, many other ‘custom’ holster makers would not make one for my CZ for some reason… maybe too specialized? DME was the first place I found that said “no problem.” They even had my gun options available in the order application (including option for extended threaded barrel). After a few emails so I could be sure he knew what I needed, I placed my order. When I received it, it was perfect. Fit perfectly with easy adjustments for tension. Rapid clip on option makes it easy to snap it on and off my belt and it still feels secure. It is super light and it looks very high-quality. Fits high and close to my body and even though it is an OWB holster, I could easily conceal it under a light jacket. I recently got a S&W M&P that came with a holster but I’m probably going to order a DME holster for it as a replacement. Also, got a 2-mag mag carrier and it is very good too with tension adjustments and same quality build. Great product with excellent workmanship and customer service. Only down-side is the wait but that just shows how many people want DME products.

Love the quality, fit perfectly and look great, going to order another for sure.

This is a great holster that fits perfectly. The owner spent time speaking with me to make sure it was just what I needed. I searched several other brands and none could support my left-handed, light/laser set up. I highly recommend DME Holsters.

I have purchased four of the DME OWB pancake holsters over the last year for pistols of very different shapes and sizes (Glock 34, a 4 inch 1911, a 3 inch 1911, and a CZ P-01). The pancake design holds the pistol very close to the hip which is a big plus for concealability under a sweatshirt or vest, but remains very comfortable for extended wear while standing, walking or sitting in the car. I strongly recommend this product. On at least two of my purchases, Tim followed up with some figment questions during the production process to make sure the holster and Thumb-break retention strap fit just right. Excellent customer service. Jim in Greensboro, NC

Great product. The fit of the holster matched my Sig 1911 Ultra Compact with TLR6 perfectly. The only thing that bothered me was that one the rivets has what appeared to be a slight rust spot and some of the screws had the black protective coating peeled off (most likely due to tip of screw driver scrapping against it as the screws were installed at the factory). Additionally, I would have preferred the holster to have been in some protective bag while in the box during shipping so it wouldn’t be bouncing around the inside of the box as well as it would provide some protection in the event the box was inundated with water. The holster is plastic, but the rivets and screws are metal. As mentioned earlier, some of the black protective coating was scrapped off exposing the metal to the elements. Price was good, shipping was fast, and overall a great product. Would recommend!
