Salt Supply S2 launcher holster/cover

Background
I recently picked up a Salt Supply S2 kinetic round launcher which is a great bang for your buck compared to others, however they want $70 for their Kydex friction fit holster which is crazy considering the launcher itself is $200.  Unfortunately, there really aren't any aftermarket holsters for this launcher I could find, so I modeled one up.

I primarily wanted this holster to place the launcher in when carrying it in a sling, or backpack, and not necessarily for wearing on my hip.  That being said, I still built into the holster a hirth joint as well as the matching serrated component that would be used to attach a belt clip, or paddle to the main holster with 5mm bolt and nut secured in a recessed hex nut area on the inside of the holster.  At some point I'll model a paddle, but in the meantime, I figured I'd put the holster out there in case anyone else needed something like I did.  You could also attach the component to a purchased metal belt clip or model your own. 

Material
I printed it in PLA+ which makes for a nice matte finish and pretty stiff holster overall.   

Setup and Use
The holster prints in place as oriented in the model other than the additional hirth joint component which I've pulled off to the side of the plate in the 3mf file.  This uses a friction fit to secure the launcher, with a small nub which locks onto the trigger guard when holstered.  This way it takes a slight bit of effort to remove, preventing it from coming out by accident, but it is still easy to draw when needed.  If you find that it is too tight, you can adjust the nub by using a file or sandpaper to take it down a bit. 

Print Settings
Other than the retention nub and the hirth joint, I've angled the trigger guard and magazine release sections so that no support is needed there.  I found that a 0.02 layer height resulted in fantastic results, with a very smooth finish, and excellent detail in the gear and the debossed S2 lettering.  All of the settings I used are in the attached 3mf file. 

Final Remarks
I'm pretty happy with how it came out, and it works perfectly for my needs without the belt attachment, but I'm glad I added in the extra component and that hirth joint should I change my mind.  The easiest and strongest way to add one would be to buy a metal belt clip and attach it to that, otherwise at some point I'll model out a paddle, or you could do the same.

The fit is just barely snug at first, though with repeated use it will loosen up a bit, so don't get too carried away sanding down the retention nub.  Note that if you removed the nub altogether, the holster drag alone is enough to keep the launcher in place as well, just not as tightly, so don't feel like you have to keep it there.  

Anyway, it has been a super useful print for me, and I hope others with an S2 in need of a decent holster find it useful as well.
