After almost seven months my long awaited order arrived today. This is my first Sparks belt, but I have previously owned a VMII for the G19. This rig was built for the HK45C. I currently carry OWB since I can get away with it in the winter/spring months; but with the heat coming I am happy to have the VMII again.

The belt is cow hide in cordovan, the holsters are the VMII and the 55BN in horse and shark in cordovan, and the mag pouches are the S4C in cordovan shark. I asked for them to try and get the horse hide with some figuring to look nice with the shark, and they were able to accommodate this request. If you look closely at the VMII you can see some of the marks, and the 55BN has a marbled look to it. I think the boys in Boise did an amazing job on my order. It was well worth the anxious wait. I am really excited to get this rig broken in, enjoy the pictures.

Ooohhh, I love the smell of fresh leather. Really, really nice man. I'm jealous, all I got in the mail today was a new Kifaru Koala...exciting, but you my friend have spoiled yourself! Enjoy!

nice vm-II.I got my vm-II 2 weeks ago. black leather with shark skin trim like your holster. By far the best holster I have ever owned. 3 more on order. Congrats on the great holster.

Really nice gun leather there, Apollo. I ordered a VMII for my toy about a month ago. Only 5-6 more months to go. :wink:

Thank you all for the nice comments. I love the VMII with the stretch marks/figuring on it. The guys at Sparks keep cranking out great leather. I have one more order in the works, should be here in July.

Fantastic looking......I'm digging the cordovan color. I just ordered a holster from JR Customs (the AIWB seen here) and also asked for cordovan with a black loop.

Do you have matching cordovan shoes?

Thanks, I love the cordovan too. Funny you ask, I actually only have black shoes right now; and my wife mentioned that I need to get some shoes to go with the belt. I feel kinda awkward about accessorizing around the rig but I guess it comes with getting set up right.

Funny how the time flies isn't it.

Looks like it turned out nice again. Congrats.

Time sure does fly! Thanks for all the help back then, much appreciated; I am quite happy with the results.

They make great stuff...I can't ever seem to stay away from the shark trim even though nobody sees the holsters. But I really think I might like their belts even better than the holsters...huge difference over the less expensive gunbelts IMO.

Do the MS belts take forever as well?

Unless they are instock on their facebook page, they take the full order time. But it was damn worth it.

Was your belt part of a larger order?

 

[Apollo11]

Everything in the pictures was one order that I placed last Sept. The belt was included in that order.

Nice setup! Does the shark trim add wear resistance to holster portion that rubs the pants? I'm thinking about adding that feature to my older!
