templin9 Report post Posted January 24, 2011 Folks, I am new to the forum, but have been making items out of leather for the better part of 20 years, though after looking at the "Show Off" section, I still feel like a newbie. I am posting to ask if anyone knows where I can get a pattern for a Mexican Loop Holster? I have made various types of holsters for years, specializing in shoulder rigs, and was asked if I could make a Mexican Loop Holster. After looking around at images, I figured out roughly how to make them, but I don't have any idea about a pattern and can't just knock one out as I don't have an appropriate gun to size it to. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It shows a couple of Mex loop holsters with a number of alternative ways of making the loop that ties the body of the holster to the back. Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
