Members katsass Posted October 12, 2009 Members Report Posted October 12, 2009 Customer: Do you make concealed carry holsters for revolvers? Me: I sure do. Customer: Do you make the ones for behind the back? Me: I have made a few for SOB carry Customer: Cool Me: What kind of revolver do you have? Customer: Smith and Wesson 460 with an 8" barrel Me: Carl, that one made coffee go up my nose when I read it!!! LORD LUV A DUCK! is all I can say. Quote NOTE TO SELF: Never try to hold a cat and an operating Dust buster at the same time!! At my age I find that I can live without sex..........but not without my glasses. Being old has an advantage.......nobody expects me to do anything in a hurry.
Members OSOK Posted October 13, 2009 Members Report Posted October 13, 2009 I had a guy who wanted a pancake holster that carried his pistol with very little cant and no more than 1 inch of barrel below the bottom of his 1 1/2" dress belt... Wait for it... For his 1911! I explained to him that unless he enjoyed the feeling of his pistol tenderizing his bacon, I would need to lower it some. Quote

tashabear Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 Not a customer request - I had a lady tell me she had a "genuine naugahyde" something and wanted to know what kind of cow that came from. Crystal When she was in college, my sister had to do a persuasive speech in public speaking, and was at a loss as to subject. I suggested she do one on the plight of that endangered species, the Nauga, slaughtered wholesale for their colorful, thin hides so well-suited to upholstery. I guess she was pretty persuasive; after class girls came up to her with tears in her eyes asking where they could donate. Quote

Members seveneves Posted September 8, 2010 Members Report Posted September 8, 2010 I once had a guy ask me if we had any young stud colts for sale so he could raise him be a stud. I said, Yes, to which he promptly inquired if I had any young fillies the same age.....yes....He wanted to mate them for life. I thought is this guy serious? Quote www.neveshorses.com
Members gregintenn Posted September 9, 2010 Members Report Posted September 9, 2010 I just had a guy ask about a G.I. style flap holster for a Desert Eagle. That would take nearly an entire shoulder. Two more have asked about belt holsters for large revolvers with scopes. How do you delicately tell them that there is a reason why they can't find these? I've resorted to telling them that I could make one, but I'm fairly sure that they wouldn't be happy with the result. There's only so much a man can hang from his pants without suspenders. Quote
Members Reaper Posted September 10, 2010 Members Report Posted September 10, 2010 (edited) Customers seem to be the same across the board for sure. Back when I fabricated and installed Pool Enclosures, we would assemble the walls with the doorways intact. You would take the top of the jamb (door header) and tack it with a screw on each side to hold the bottom together. Once everything was finished as far as setting up the structure (roof on, all walls up) one of us would start working on screening walls while another would screen the roof. It seems that everyone would walk out and look at what we were doing, take a look at that door header tacked near the pool deck and ask ( Is that going to stay there? I don't want to trip over it! We would tell them that it did stay there because the doors were hug above them and the ground bugs needed a way out. they would ask "Really?" and we would say yes, it is called a "Bug Escape" Edited September 10, 2010 by Reaper Quote No sir, he fell into that bullet
Members Hicks02 Posted September 10, 2010 Members Report Posted September 10, 2010 I have a friend that I have made several holsters for and no matter what I can never please him. I always gett, " It's fine, but if you could just shave off about 1/32" then it would be great." I still don't know why I even bother taking on a job from him. Oh and not to mention he is a very cheap person too. Quote
