Made my first cowboy style holster. Customized the back for a friend.. X-mas gift:) These are kind of tricky compared to the pancake style Im used to making.

I have had issues where the gun fits in perfectly (pancake style) after it has dried. Then when its on the gun belt, on my waist, it is more difficult to remove from the holster. When its on the belt it pulls the holster snug tightening the leather around the gun. What am I doing wrong? I keep wearing it thinking it just needs to break in.

Hand Stitch Threads, Which One?
rkleather replied to J Hayes's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
I've been using the white waxed thread from Tandy. It comes in a 25 yard spool. I also wear gloves that have been rubber dipped to save my fingers, also keeps thread pretty clean. I plan on getting a Boss, that should eliminate the thread from becoming dirty. -
I think its great. I have onlu made a few gun holsters.. now I want to make my 11 yr old a nice wallet. I hope it come out as nice as that! Good job:)

My buddys wife just got a .38, she has been wearing it in a floppy Uncle Mikes holster. I put this together. I think ox blood looks cool coming out of the black… Now get some stag grips on this lil pistol and I think it will be complete:)

rkleather replied to mmirob's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
I like both of them! I havnt tried an inlay yet..I need to give it a shot! No pun intended:) So… Question.. Did you cut out the shape, and glue the inlay..Then stitch it? Next carry on like normal..? Thanks for sharing! -

New Sig P238 Leather
rkleather replied to doug1221's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
I put these VZ grips on, really grippy. I made this pancake last year, wear it at 4-5 o'clock. Easy to forget your wearing it. http://i1102.photobu...1s/IMAG0192.jpg -
