  1. It may work for the Rugers, I don't trust it enough to advertise as such and don't offer services for Rugers if I don't own the gun and they aren't local. The only snake gun I can think of that may have the larger frame is a 44 Mag Anaconda, never had a request to find out. The smaller Diamondback, Python, etc are more like the L-frame S&W which is 'basically' a K-frame with a full lug. In my experience the K frame fit is sloppy/loose in an L-frame holster so I do not interchange them. A lot of folks do. Lindells offers an aluminum 686 with 4" barrel which would cover 586/686/296/396/696 and any of the 45 ACP L-frame models. I'm sure I'm leaving out some, along with the Colt Python.
  2. Thanks for the compliments! It may not be main stream popular but I'm ok with a smaller market. I'm really liking the double stitched belts. Dwight, thanks for the words. I've got the set up in mind price out, it's just finding a place to put it that's my trouble. I'm out of workspace! Thank you
  3. You need an N-frame Smith. 24/25/27/28/29 or any of hose with a 6 in front. There are others, and there are variations with a full underlug. I have gotten a few from Duncans that have worked nicely but own guns for a lot of the hard to find versions.
  4. Check out the post above yours Thanks for the compliments. Thanks Dick, way I see it plenty of ya'll are really good at the detail boning. My hands not steady and I'm plain crummy at it so I'll do what I can to make one look nice. I've been toying with the idea of a vacuum press but I'm not sure if it would add too much detail. Sure would help with consistency though. In any case thanks for the compliments. It's definitely better than my first post 2 years ago. There is a lot of knowledge to soak up here!
  5. Thank you kindly! Thank you! Hey Matt, it's just Feibings pro dk brown. I cut it really heavily. For whatever reason this last W&C order has had the red a lot more dominant - haven't changed my methods any so who knows? I played with a few designs for the antler sheath, I'm not 100% happy with it but it was hard to get any kind of 'flow' with such a strange shape. I like making sheaths because I can use a lot of my otherwise scraps up, and they add a little something extra hanging on a belt.
  6. I think ya done good Wally. One thing I know others will recommend is to accommodate more for the grip, so you don't have to shift your hand after drawing. Keep it up!
  7. Just a couple of new things, I'm most proud of this first sheath. It was a bear for construction with the full width loop. This was my second attempt with it and while not 'perfect' my customer was very happy with it. My dark brown is becoming the most popular color, isn't quite as red as the camera/lighting made them out to be though.
  8. Frank, Do you have any problems with the drum dyed leather casing for tooling? Does the stamping 'cut' through the dye in places and if so, what do you touch it up with? I've been interesting in trying some out myself. -Robert
  9. Great job on all of it, the grips are beautiful!
  10. Frank, we have similar tastes in work. Those pieces are the two I would be drawn to the most out of the group. It is all very clean! -Robert
  11. The slim jim and lazy stitch belt just do something for me. Nice work!
  12. Thank you Jack. A lot of truth in that statement, I learned the hard way I'll never be 100% on anything. You let someone look at a 'flaw' and they laugh in your face...that's when you let it go
  13. Hey Josh, it is built on the medium frame.... thanks for the compliments! Thank you! Thanks for the sentiment, your last line made me chuckle Thanks! I can't claim that as 'on purpose' this time!
