**See last post for my find ahahahaha**



....as I seem to have lost a holster somewhere in my house!!! I have a very nice custom holster for my 1911. Well for the past few months I've carrying/training with my M&P. Tonight I went to my "gear locker" to pull out the holster and mag pouches as I'll be using the 1911 in a class this weekend and I'll be damned-can't find it anywhere.

My dog is looking at me like I'm nuts as I'm searching everywhere with my flashlight. I've checked the safe, ammo lockup, in closests, under beds, the couch, my truck, everywhere!!!! I'm going nuts looking for it!!! I have my old High Noon Topless to use but this is crazy!

It's a Josh Bulman that Stan Chen offers:

Any other idiots out there or am I all alone? Feel free to make fun of me-I just turned 58 so I'm blaming it on that.

I lost a holster this week too.

Wife seen it I saw it many times... now... gone!

If I was a religious man still I'd say a prayer to St Anthony would be in order... but not so much anymore.

I hope you find it! I hope I find mine too!

I misplace stuff all the time. It usually turns up after I buy a replacement.

So just go buy another holster and then you'll find the missing one.

I still can't find a $40 Leupold screw on scope cover I misplaced in the house somewhere.

I lose stuff. I always find it in the last place I look. I'm gonna start looking in the last place first.

If you think 58 is bad, eventually you'll forget you even had some things, until you "discover it" again. I'll be 59 Monday, just sayin.

I couldn't find my holster the other day. It was under a pair of pants. Try looking in your laundry basket, even if you're sure it's not in there.

Let's rule out one obvious place. It isn't on your belt right now, is it?

Good point Ray. Check on the front end of your 1911.

in the range bag you're setting up for class. OR in the drawer with your insulated underwear.

On the pair of pants you've been wearing all week?

I sometimes hide stuff from myself by putting it "in a safe place".

I think Dick Chaney is stealing my stuff and it's all in a 'safe undisclosed location'.

Underneath a magazine in the bathroom.
I put a pistol on the back of the toilet than placed a mag over it.. Took 3 months to find it...

Thanks guys, I appreciate all the suggestions, especially the obvious ones as those would normally pan out. So here it is 3 hours after I first posted, another thorough search-all the obvious plus those not so suggested here and I still can't find it. This is really pissing me off. Number one it's an expensive holster but more importantly it's a great holster for both range and concealment and is in excellent condition. I'm giving up tonight, will try again in the morning. Sigh.

WELL... I LOST a holster once.
I ship the holster without shipping label, and lost it. USPS could not find the package.

You sure it ain't in a vehicle? I always find stuff in the last place I look...

I have a box of/ for holsters. If I am not using a holster, it goes in the box. I too lost a holster once, found it again in the truck, hence the box.

I found a pocket knife the other day that I had been looking for. I won't say how long I've been looking for it, but I finally found it and that's what matters.
