Members Shooter McGavin Posted September 18, 2011 Members Report Posted September 18, 2011 Made it last week and actually wore it to an open carry BBQ today lol. 8/9oz Hermann Oak with Ostrich Leg trim on the holster, mag carrier is 5/6oz Hermann Oak with more ostrich Leg. Made it with the intent to sell it, but it looks so good with my Springfield Loaded Lightweight that I think I'll keep it. Got a lot of lookie loos and handed out a bunch of cards. Had some foot long hotdogs and some awesome brownies. Sun was shining in NE Ohio, it was a good day. As an aside, can anyone tell me where to find a good quality thread in size 277 or better. I've been using the Tippman thread that I ordered at the same time as my Boss and am a bit underwhelmed with it from time to time. Thanks! Quote Zlogonje Gunleathers

Members particle Posted September 19, 2011 Members Report Posted September 19, 2011 Great looking holster! I always like the black with white thread combination. Quote Eric Adamswww.adamsleatherworks.com | Facebook | YouTube | Instagram
Members steelhawk Posted September 19, 2011 Members Report Posted September 19, 2011 I like it as well. There is an OC event being planned near my digs that I think I should attend. I sent you a PM. Quote www.bearriverholsters.com
Members BEARDOG Posted September 19, 2011 Members Report Posted September 19, 2011 (edited) I am usually just lurking and learning on here, but thought this needed posted about, good job! I would like to know when you use exotics do you first glue it to a piece of Veg tanned cow? I am thinking for the holster you did, to also get reinforcement but on the mag holder it looks thin like you just used the ostrich? Also how do the exotics burnish? I would like to try some sometime, maybe shark? How does that work out, if you ever used it? As for the thread, I found this huge thread website...http://www.thethread...ylon-thread-277 PS. Love the grip's too! Edited September 19, 2011 by BEARDOG Quote
Members katsass Posted September 19, 2011 Members Report Posted September 19, 2011 Great looking work Shooter. I usually use a contrasting inlay, but the black on black really looks good in this rig.

Members Shooter McGavin Posted September 19, 2011 Author Members Report Posted September 19, 2011 Thanks all for the compliments! A few days before the BBQ one of my buddies said since he doesnt have a BBQ gun he al teast wanted a nice holster for his Glock. Gave him some options, this was the net result. Glock 19 pancake in Black Cherry with skull and crossbones stamp on trim panel. He was very happy and put it on right away Quote Zlogonje Gunleathers
