Members $$hobby Posted November 28, 2011 Members Report Posted November 28, 2011 (edited) +1 the al stohlman book (pattern book) has a 1911 holster pattern. also, why just make your own pattern? If you dont know how, then get his book and it will show you. Then you wont have to look for them, but have to tools to make them youself. iirc, i used the same technique to make a flapped holster for my 1911. The only oops was that i made it too snug since i added a lining and i forgot to flip the pattern over for a righty. btw, get some heavy paper/craft paper and make your pattern with that. if you need to cut/tape on the other parts. theres another book with 1911 patterns, but its out of print.

Thanks for the reply Hobby. I have made my own patterns for my Black powder pistols I can probably pattern the holster I was mainly interested in the drop part and swivel.

Members gunter Posted November 29, 2011 Members Report Posted November 29, 2011 $hobby, what's the name of that book you're talking about? Quote Once I moved about like the wind, but now I surrender.(Geronimo) Failure is always an option
Ambassador Luke Hatley Posted November 29, 2011 Ambassador Report Posted November 29, 2011 Gunter....the book is "How To Make Holsters" by Al Stolhman , this is a great book the patterns are kinda dated, but enough information to help make you an expert. I M H O Quote Luke
Members sinpac Posted November 29, 2011 Author Members Report Posted November 29, 2011 Like this? This to me kinda looks like a 1860 Army Colt holster. I could be wrong. Thanks for the reply Mrdabeetle. Quote "It ain't about how hard you hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward." - Rocky Balboa
Members sinpac Posted November 29, 2011 Author Members Report Posted November 29, 2011 Does anyone here have an idea where I might locate the brass swivel for this holster. As far as the Drop part of the holster I think I can work that out. I think a dismount holster pattern will work I have that one. I will need to make some adjustments to it.
