FiftySix Report post Posted April 11, 2010 Just checkin' in. Found the site while doing research on holster making. I jumped into Cowboy Action Shooting a month or so ago and have been aquiring the necessary firearms for the past 6 weeks. The pistols have arrived but the 'ole bank account is pretty depleated, so there's no room for fancy store bought holsters. Thought I'd take a stab at building my own - so here I am! The "family" has been in the leather business for quite some time, so I can get help if I get totally lost. Round these parts we refer to Yoakum, Texas as the leather capital of the world. Now I'm not here to argue if that's true or not, but my mom's side of the family all hail from those parts and most all of them have worked for Tandy, Circle Y, or Double D at some time in the past. But since I'm the type that prefers to try it on my own I'll see just how deep the creative juices flow in my veins! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FiftySix Report post Posted April 15, 2010 Thanks for the welcome! I promise to be more active in a few days. Right now we're at the end of tax season and I work for an accounting firm. YIKES! Worked Saturady, skipped Sunday - then put in back to back 12.5 hour days. Today we got out at 7, but now I'm doing my own taxes... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
