This is one I just finished for a mates 470 NE double rifle, the flap folds behind so he can grab two cartridges at a time with thumb and two fingers.... Roger

Yes. I shoot a Gold Cup in what we call " STEEL CHALLENGE " here in Australia and I like to be a bit more practical with my gear. Most competitors use all types of race guns and optics with plastic holsters and mag holders. I would like to make more, maybe not " traditional " gear but leather gear...if that makes sense... Roger

This may not be the right place for this, but has anyone made a competition style holster for a 1911 ?? Roger

I usually get about six bucks for them, not a lot but I do sell quite a few... Roger

To the right market, yes. A bit of mucking around but better when you do a mob of them, good use for small off cuts, easy with the doo-hickey for cutting the leather out ( cutter cost about $35 ) I found the best market is gun shops, they put them next to the cash register ( like the chocolates at Woolies ) Roger

Sorry to rain on your parade, but I've been doing these for several years now....as you said, cut the shotgun cases down with a Dremel, pop out the primer and its surround then re-fit using an appropriate size eyelet then super glue a used large rifle primer back in the center. With the rifle ones, I cut the base at about 3/8" then put six cuts in the body to flare out once its fitted to the leather..I hope this makes sense, the pics may clarify... Roger

Pdm25150...Those are made to go on your belt or in your pocket....the pics below are made for your pocket, they are in different lengths for different cases but are all 100mm/4" wide to fit in a shirt pocket.... Roger

I assume you are asking about the forms for the top half of these pouches.....I make them from what we call " Form Ply "....the centre piece which forms the pouch varies depending on how deep I need the pouch to be, the base and the top stay the same. Roger

This is a bit of an old post, so I may as well add to it while I'm here.....This is one of three small pouches for holding 22's that I made for a mates boys, they'll easily hold up to 100 rounds.... Roger

Finished the last of this lot... Roger

Just finished this lot, not completely happy with them but improving... Roger

Nice work....your knives ? Roger

No, I always put in a 2 or 3 mm thick, 10 to 12 mm wide welt on the outside edge. It protects the stitching from the blade and the blade from the rivets. A bit hard to see in the pics..... Roger

Finished the last two sheaths for this bloke...top one is a small of the back sheath for a camp knife, the other is a second sheath for his " Lion Killer " knife. Here are all four ready to go... Roger

Working on it Chuck, working on it ...
