I have 8/9 and 4/5 oz on hand, is that overkill?

I did one for a model 29 (44 Mag) 6 1/2" barrel out of a single layer of 8/10 English bridle. The owner loves it.

2 layers of 4/5 should be even sturdier than the single 8/10.

I've made holsters for N frame Smith and Wessons. 8/9 oz leather is plenty heavy with no lining.

I'd say that would be overkill. Although if it is an N Frame S&W, it may not be. Mike

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.

I'd suggest doubling the 4/5 oz if you want a lined holster.

I think I'm gonna go with 4/5 oz doubled and maybe an extra piece of 4/5 oz on the inside of the belt loop.
