I am the shop manager for John Bianchi's Frontier Gunleather.

Here's one of my favorite projects.

Lots of great information on this board. Hope I can contribute my share.

Matt, welcome! I love it when a new member posts pictures of his or her work with the intro. The rig you've shared in your post is clearly one of the finest that's graced these boards to date! Congrats!

There are lots of folks here that are just starting out building holsters, and I'm sure your experience and advice will be very welcomed. So, don't be a stranger!

Regards, -Alex

welcome Matt, always like contributions from the professionals,

YOU COULD CONTRIBUTE BY TELLING ME HOW I CAN GET A PRINT OF THE

"WILD BUNCH".

I do have in my collection"BLUE STEEL and GUN LEATHER."

Glad to have you. I have Bianchi's video set (3 videos) but I haven't gotten brave enough to try a holster and belt.

Welcome Matt,

I just left John's namesake company!. I was the Regional Sales Manager for the company that owned both Bianchi, and Safariland. Left to pursure my own Police Leather business. Are you guys in Temecula?

[MattW]

Thanks for the warm welcome folks.

Luke,

I have aquired two collections of the old John Bianchi Histographs over the years. There are five total. Of which "The Wild Bunch" is one.

I got every one of them from EBAY.

I have a couple of reprints available. I'll trade you something for it. (old tool, rare pattern, deed to a silver mine )

Calleather,

The Shop is in Cathedral City, Ca.

Thanks again for the warm welcome. Theres lots of great info on this site !
