my latest holster

Recommended Posts

This is my latest holster. I made it for a friend of mine. He got this pistol from his grandfather. It's a chrome plated .32 caliber Smith & Wesson with real bone grips. It was made in 1925. He wanted a period correct western shoulder rig. It's got more tooling done on it than any of the pictures I could find of shoulder holsters from that era, but the shape and contruction are correct according to my research. He wanted the extra tooling and the customer is always right! Hope y'all like it.

The little green man I am trying to send is me full of envy of your really good work. I do have a question though is the holster and the bottom part of the shoulder yoke all one piece of leather? Thanks for sharing with us, Billy P

No Billy it's not. It's 2 pieces. The front of the holster is sewn down the back edge to the yoke, then folded over and sewn along the front edge to form the pouch.

I had to remake the front of the holster because I messed up the meander up on the first one. I have all 3 sizes that Craftool makes. It can be very frustrating to use, but I like the way it loks.
