Yes, but I'm not tooled for that stuff yet. Kydex isn't hard to work with, but you need very precise models to form the firearms. I don't particularly feel like baking my glock, so until I can get some high-quality models for molding, I won't go there.

I'm all for having goods made in Canada, but right now it's cheaper to do so in the US. The price is ultimately passed on to the consumer, so if I have them made in Canada they'll cost more.
If anyone knows any Canadian piecework manufacturing outfits that can source Berry Amendment Compliant milspec materials, let me know. So far, the only option has been Stateside.
Note - the MOLLE straps on the back of those pouches are in the "Navy Seal" color. I try to keep my Coyote webbing for PALS straps and other visible things. There's a real shortage of Coyote As you can see, the difference isn't huge but there's a definite contrast. Looks real good with Marpat-AR and Cadpat-AR, or 3-color but unless people ask for them I won't be doing pouches in that color until I can match the cordura and the webbing.
For those who were asking, tenative retail pricing for the doubles are $29.99 each. That's based on my early estimate but the production costs will dictate the final price. Pricing on the other models will be determined once they're built.
