Buscadero Gun Belt

Recommended Posts

Finished this up for a client.  First big project on the Class 4.  Used the new attachments from @Patrick1 that @Tim Schroeder recommended.  277 top thread, 207 bottom thread, 25 needle.  Drum dyed Hermann Oak, except liner. it's for a Ruger .45 LC Single Action.  Customer signed the invoice before he left.  Scanned it the signature to use for laser engraving his name inside.  Burned off the thread ends after pics.

Someone on here had a belt with a pattern on the inside, and said it was only for the customer, something special.  I wanted to recreate that and realized I had his sig.  Thanks for the compliments.

Thanks.  He absolutely did not want a brown floral pattern.  Said he wanted black.  I actually used Natural thread to get the contrast.

He actually brought one of his dad's belts and said, "make it like this, but 3" shorter.  I was able to use the existing gun belt as a pattern.  I used @Dwight or @JLSleather method for bullet loops.  The original belt used stitching between each loop.

I would have preferred to neck down the ends and had it all one piece instead of the added billet and buckle end for attachment.  Whatever the customer wants...be happy to assist if I can.

Thanks!  Lots of fun making it.  One holster ended up in the trash.  ouch!  Actually broke 2 needles in the Cobra trying to stitch the first one.
