1851 Colt Conversion Holsters

Recommended Posts

Here is a RH strong side and a RH cross draw rig that I finished up for a pair of 1851 Colt Conversion Revolvers with a 5.5" barrel. 

Not sure why the coloring looks different buty they are all an even color in person. Maybe because of the storm clouds mixed with sunshine that was above me this day.

Thanks for the comments. No, its not my design. It is a Will Ghormely design.

Nice job on the holsters,  I have had the same problem with the dyes (Fiebings dark brown) and the leather came from the same  bend, still hard to say why I had two different shades. Maybe because it was the location on the bend, maybe because one holster was a bit wetter from being freshly tooled. Or maybe, just maybe, it may of been an involuntary temporary power interruption of the antimagnetic particle storm shield.

Ha.....yeah, Lots of different reasons I guess. In person though, they are not like that.
