Quick draw reduced (500x374)



Here is a quick draw metal lined throat and fine leather lined. The belt has a super lining of bison hide. 20 belt loops...laced, not sewn and roller buckles at holster and belt. This is one fine setup. The history of metal lined quick draw began with two fellows - one of which is my mentor. A guy we have all seen on tv is Orvo Ojala. He was the go-to guy for hollywood adult westerns in the 50's and 60's. The opening scene where Matt Dillon drops the gunfighter (Orvo Ojala) is the most famous. Orvo taught James Arness and dozens of stars to draw and shoot. Dave Shelgren was his shooting partner in a quick draw club in Tucson called 'The Thumb Busters'. Dave was a pro shooter for Winchester in those days and a champion quick draw. Dave taught me my craft and I still see him weekly. Dave turns 90 2014. Hope you enjoy.
