I have been trying to figure out a way to holster my kwa mac11, and cannot figure a way to do it. I was wondering if anyone could suggest a good way to holster or carry it as a secondary? I know there are holsters for it but I have yet to find one in stock, I heard they were not very reliable as a holster for it. I have tried a sling but it will not hook over the back of the gun.

Fear, I really appreciate the link, I will be purchasing that asap. Do you know how well it functions as holster?

I wouldn't recommend a drop leg for a Mac-11, even though its about the only space big enough for one. Think about when you have a mag in the weapon, how much weight that is, that isn't secured to your leg. It's going to be flopping around no matter how tight you strap it down. I recommend something hard plastic rather than cloth to holster the thing on account of the fact that the plastic is more rigid and won't allow as much play when you're running.

Let's say I don't carry the mag in it while playing. I can't really think of a holster that is going to let me holster it and have the mag in. Would the drop leg work or would it still be a hassle to hall around.
I was thinking about just buying a p90 mag pouch and holding the mag in there for now. Then just holster the mac11 on the drop leg or figure a way to holster it.

I would sling it very short, so it hangs at the middle/upper chest area, or in your arm pit (almost where as shoulder holster would go.) Can't find an exact picture of what I'm thinking here..but something like this for the shoulder option (really i'd have the gun higher than the mp5 in that picture): ![](http://www.evike.com/images/large/Holster_CG_H_MP5K_SF_all.jpg) or this (position wise) for the chest setup: ![](http://www.tacticalresponsegear.com/catalog/images/37PRH1BK_0.jpg) ![](http://www.modelguns.co.uk/images/m11holst1.jpg) Hope you get the idea of what I'm trying to convey up there. Like Ghast said, I think it's just enough gun to where having it on your leg will probably make you dislike keeping it there rather quickly. Even without the mag in. I run drop leg setups as it's my preferred place for me to draw my pistol from and I just feel like it doesn't lend itself well to the mac11. I've used one before in games, not in a drop leg rig, but i know the gun and know the rigs pretty well, they really don't fit together IMO. Having it slung short on your side or center chest will keep it close and distribute the weight better. If you use a quick detatch single point sling for it you can even get it completely free very quickly if you needed it off your body to use. Just my humble opinion having experience with both the mac11 and drop leg rig for a few years.
