I've used Kydex before to make armor (for SCA). We used a heating gun to mold it. Its great stuff so long as you don't live anywhere really really cold.
One thing you might try is molding thin steel or aluminum (very carefully) around your gun so you have a mold. Then put the kydex around it with a heating gun. I've done similar things for gauntlets. But never on something as expensive as a gun...
