RoosterShooter Report post Posted November 6, 2012 (edited) Does anyone know where I can find a pattern for a Tanker Style holster? I've looked around, and can't find one. For the info ... I'm looking for a holster pattern for a 1911 which can be modified for other semi-auto pistols. Something similar to this ..... Thanks.

SooperJake Report post Posted November 6, 2012 (edited) The picture is enough I'd say. Looks pretty straight forward in design. The back piece of the holster appears to be a triangle and the belts form 3 points of "suspension" .Make the shoulder loop adjustable like a rifle sling, with the buckle in front. I'm not crazy about the retention strap design. Also, I think I'd move the belt loop to the other side of the muzzle, and make it wider. Leave a little tab of leather there for the loop to attach. But to answer your original question: I haven't seen a pattern. Edited November 6, 2012 by SooperJake Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
St8LineGunsmith Report post Posted November 6, 2012 ya it looks to be pretty simple design the point of attachment of the strap on the bottom side of the holster is really the only thing I question everything else is pretty much right in your face I think I would angle the holster for a cross draw position.

Ed in Tx Report post Posted November 18, 2012 I believe I saw a pattern similar to what you are talking about in one of the Tandy pattern packs. Don't remember if it was in a printed pack or in the online library. Sorry I can't remember which one.. sure sign of old age I guess. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
