Members Jemaddux Posted May 15, 2009 Members Report Posted May 15, 2009 I have a 15 in barrel Thompson Contender. Anyone done a holster for one? I know what I want but have no idea where to start to design or make it. Someone had posted a picture of a short shotgun with a wood pistol grip (movie prop is what I think it was) and now I can't find it. If someone had seen that, that is what I would like to try.It would be a belt with a flat wider piece against the leg, a pocket on the bottom the muzzle would go in, a "U" piece on top that the pistol would slide back in and lock in place and a tie strap on the bottom to tie around my leg. That is the only way I can explain it. Any ideas? Quote
Members Tac Posted May 15, 2009 Members Report Posted May 15, 2009 Something similar to this, but with a cup at the bottom to hold the muzzle? Quote
Members badger Posted May 15, 2009 Members Report Posted May 15, 2009 Was it my Mare's Leg holster from 'Firefly'? Badger Quote

Any ideas? which is more important - a quick draw, or protecting the gun? would something like this in leather work for you? www.serbu.com Edited May 15, 2009 by RustyPhillips Quote
Members Jemaddux Posted May 15, 2009 Author Members Report Posted May 15, 2009 Was it my Mare's Leg holster from 'Firefly'? Badger I think that was it but I want the muzzle to go into something to keep it protected and the clip part on the top I think to hold the pistol in place. I will post a picture of the pistol later so maybe some ideas can come up. Thanks for the help. Quote
Members Freedom Posted May 16, 2009 Members Report Posted May 16, 2009 Something else you might consider is a crossdraw holster with a real heavy cant to it..like 30to60 degrees. This is how I carry my Howdah pistol. It is handy and doesn't swing with your leg as your walk and I can even ride my horse with it on. Just a thought Quote
