Members Sixer Posted December 21, 2011 Members Report Posted December 21, 2011 I usually stick to the "carry and conceal" type holster but recently had a request for a "cowboy" style holster. Luckily I had my Stohlman book with some great patterns, just gathering dust in the garage. I put it to use and this is what I came up with... It was a fun project and the first time I've ever tried the mexican loop / buckle type holster. I'm still new to the stamping and border stuff so I didn't go too crazy. I was pretty happy with the final product P.S. I have no idea why I have spurs !? Only been on a horse twice in my life, haha ... thought I'd throw them in the pic as a little prop.

Members Sixer Posted December 22, 2011 Author Members Report Posted December 22, 2011 Thank you fellas! I appreciate the kind words... This holster will be a Christmas gift to the customer's father-in-law, so I was a bit nervous from the start. Slightly out of my comfort zone. I couldn't exactly call him before the weekend and tell him " sorry, I messed it up " haha... By some stroke of luck it turned out alright! On a side note.... I wish I had time to get into hand carved work. The rigs some of you turn out with such quality and detail completely blow me away. Thanks again for the feedback and MERRY CHRISTMAS Quote http://www.hoppcustomleather.com https://www.facebook.com/HoppCustomLeather
