    you could try dyeing it pink with Angelus pink acrylic leather paint. I dyed a veg.tan holster with this and it is pink and does not crack or rub off, get it on Ebay

    I would suggest that you get the following books : The Art of Making Leather Cases vol 1,2,&3. by Al Stohlman. they are one of the best in helping you make cases and the patterns are easy to follow.Stephen

    I do not use Tandy leather. I was useing Siegel of Calif. until they just went out of business. Zack White leather co. has some good db shoulders, Wickett & Craig is some of the best . none of it is cheap.If you buy the double shoulders and strip your own is cheaper in the long run.

    question: where are you buying your leather? I have been useing 8/9 or 9/10 oz double shoulders for years and no problems. just buy a top grade leather and not the cheapest.

    First of all there is no such thing as water proof leather. You can get water resistance. I know you can seal leather but leather need to breath just like you skin

    you might try this site:www.duncanoutdoor.com. they make alum.dummy guns

    Rg, I agree with you. a 9/10oz double shoulder or 9/10 double butt is not going to cave in. the first thing that will give out on a stitch belt is the stitching.

    I know most sew 2 layers of 6/7 oz leather together but why can you not use 9/10 double shoulder or 9/10 oz double butts. There is no way you can crush a 1 1/2" belt .

    You are correct. My moisture may not be right will recheck it and retry,thanks

    John, I understand the red or blue guns can get quite expensive.what you can do is look up Airsolf.com look at the spring loaded pistols. You can get them from $5 up to $30. They are a hard plastic of a 1:1 ratio. look upder :airsolfofatl.com then click on spring. let me know what you think,Stephen
