My first holster after 2-1/2 years away from leatherwork

Recommended Posts

This is the first holster I have made in about 2-1/2 years. The holster is made from 7-8 oz leather and dyed with Feibings USMC black dye, and finished with acrylic finish. 1911_holster_and_belt.jpg

WOW... Lenny, that is fantastic! I love the design and everything else about it! Around here, we would call that a Bar-B-Q rig for a Bar-B-Q gun! I am a serious fan of the 1911 and few things stir my soul more than a beautiful 1911 and a beautiful rig to wear it in.... Any Texas or Arizona Ranger would be PROUD to call that rig "his"....

The concho realy adds to the basket weave and connects it with the belt set up... If you are interested in doing a second set up in that style in Brown, let me know what you would charge for it.... as I would seriously consider buying a set up like that for my own Bar-B-Q gun!

Thanks for the comments from all of you. I didn’t take any pictures of the back because I hand sew the holster to the belt support and my hand stitching has a lot to be desired. I use a Boss hand sewing machine on the rest but I have trouble on the thick leather.
