Bohikeman Report post Posted June 26, 2012 Hi, I want to make a holster for a Ruger SP 9 , 9 mm, but so far every template I make out of cardboard or paper does not look rt, this would my 1st holster and everything else. The leather I have is kind of thin and soft, but I really don't care, I just want see If I can make one. So can anyone help me? Thanks for any help. Latter. Louie.

TexasJack Report post Posted June 26, 2012 Do you have an idea of how you want it to look? That's a good starting point. Getting the holster around the pistol is not particularly hard, but there are several possible ways to connect the holster to your belt or waistband - like clips, snaps, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

From the old grump: My suggestion to all folks wanting to make a holster or two is to get Al Stohlman's book "How To Make Holsters". At around $12 it will teach you how to make a pattern, stitch properly and a bunch of other stuff that will lead you in the right direction.

Michael Thanks Mike, I really like it specially the way you installed the belt clip. That gives me a good idea on how to place mine on one that I'm cutting rt now. Thanks. Latter. Louie.
