Are they about the same quality Art?

Well thanks for all the good advice I think ill be calling Bob and checking into the cowboy 4500 see how much the shipping is going to kill me to get it here seems like it should work quite well for what I want to do and be able to handle any future projects as well. And it seems if I go looking to set a used one and have to buy all the parts to get it right Id probally spend close to the same as buying a new machine

Well the arthritus is mainly in my fingers so pulling a handle would not affect that. But the throat would be a bit of a problem I guess if I was going to make a really wide holster. Although I dont really care for pancake holsters myself after being a concealed carry license holder for years inside the pants holster carried on the strong arm side front hip is way more comfortable and easier to draw in my opinion. But I guess I might look at the cowboy or the cobras since they would allow me to do more variety.

Thanks wizcrafts for a great answer to my question I think I might still buy the 201 for doing lighter stuff but am leaning really hard towards theTippman boss now after doing a little more research.

what model of singer would be good What Im looking for is something that will sew 8-9 oz leather holsters ect. for a couple of hundred dollars cant justify spending a thousand dollars on a machine as it as just a hobby right now

what would you suggest as a starter machine?

Have a chance to buy a singer 201 fully serviced for 100 dollars. Im wondering if this will work for sewing leather holsters ect. arthtitus in my hands kills when I handstich.
