Hags Report post Posted 6 hours ago I have made several holsters for this young man. This is his "grouse gun". He carries it elk hunting. Ruger Mk II Tactical with a Vortex holo and a Silencerco Sparrow silencer. It's kinda long, so the hole in the bottom is for a tie down. 8/9 oz Hermann Oak Fiebing pro dye Saddle tan and Dark brown Resolene 277 top and bottom on a Cobra class 3 Always fun to do something different.

DieselTech Report post Posted 5 hours ago Nice work. Looks great! Did the resolene make the leather that glossy? Or did you add another technique to get it to Shine like that? Thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I really like watching the color come out. The drier it gets, the more the burnishing affects it. The resolene (50/50 with water by the way) just seals it in.
