Nice job. Happy Day Of Birth to her.

Thanks. I have many of his patterns but never tried out the saddlebag patterns.

Very beautiful work boy Wyatt and Josh. What pattern pack is that from? How is the holster attached?

No. Just a standard Craftool Pro Adjustable Creaser.

Thank you. As a kid watching Young Guns 1 and 2 and as someone who loves western history I have always wanted a pair of blued 1877 Colts. Over the years I had chances to buy them but for one reason or another I didn't. When I found this one it was not exactly what I wanted but came with lots of reloading components such brass, bullets, dies, 2 bullet molds and the gun functions as it should so I jumped on it. I almost did but wanted to try a mix of old west and some styling from a Brill holster so I used a textured beveller around the edges and around the makers mark.

The edges on the strap have a rounded appearance but that is mostly from the crease line I made as a border.

Thanks Chuck. The 1877, while prone to breakage, has long been a gun I have wanted. I prefer blued guns over nickel and stainless but it came with lots of reloading stuff for it and was just too good to pass up. Everything functions as it should also.

Thanks for the advise. What rounded edges are you talking about? I used a number two edge beveller on the edges if that is what you mean.

Recently got an original Colt 1877 and decided it needed a holster to compliment it so I made this for it. Fully suede lined to be soft on the nickel finish on the Colt. It was made in 1883. Thanks for looking.

Very lovely holster and belt. Question, What is that type of belt called where it doesn't have separate billets for the belt loops and buckle? I have made several but never knew what they are truly called.

Nicely done.

Overall a good job. I like that type of finish on some of my holsters as well.

Awesome job. The tooling is wonderful.

Very nice rig.

After writing that it was Ajacks grips I started to doubt what I told you and so I went looking. I found some like it on Buffalo Brothers page so that must be where I got them. Like I said, I have had these for a very long time. RUG-008 Checkered Grips - Buffalo Brothers Cowboy Store

Thanks. I believe these are old ajacks grips. Can’t remember exactly. I have had them a very long time.

Excellent rig and post. Such a classic style and design.

Just finished up these Ruger Vaquero Holsters.

A lot of those are a type of oak leaves. We have two oak trees in our yard. That is a good looking Mexican Loop on page 112. Great book. Yes, I do. Most of them will get ran over with a lawn mower and mulched. The rest will get raked up.

Nice looking holster.

Looks like maybe the mold is longer but the holster is made for the said 6.5" barrel. Very nice set up

That looks great.

Another fine job on the chest rig.

Great job.

He is a veteran. I have looked at the US replica rigs. They have some nice ones. Its something I am wanting to learn to make also. Thank you.
