Members Driften Posted January 7, 2013 Members Report Posted January 7, 2013 I am getting better but still have a ways to go, but I am happy with this one for personal user. I need to work on my stitching, boning, and process flow. I think I may need to have made the holster a little wider to give the second belt loop a little more width. I had not decided when I made the pattern if I was going do the second one as a tunnel or go though to the other side like is a little more standard on this style of holster. I liked the look that lobo did on his "Modified Avenger" so I gave it a try. I also reduced the size of the stiffener going around the mouth of the holster from the large one I did last time. I also ran the sweat/body guard so that it slightly protects the rear sight. The holster feels nice on the belt and I can get a full grip on the gun when drawing. How does my design look? Quote
Members Haystacker Posted January 7, 2013 Members Report Posted January 7, 2013 I think your design is very good. I also think you did a good job on this holster. Quote
Members Driften Posted January 8, 2013 Author Members Report Posted January 8, 2013 Thanks Haystacker.... Anybody else have some constructive comments for me? Quote
Members Josh Ashman Posted January 8, 2013 Members Report Posted January 8, 2013 Looks good! As far as "constructive comments", if it were me I'd round the corner at the back and even out the stitch line below the trigger guard as shown by the red lines below. That's just me though, it looks very good for a 3rd holster as is. Best regards, Josh Quote
Members Driften Posted January 8, 2013 Author Members Report Posted January 8, 2013 Thanks Josh your stitching comments seem right. One issue I had was I needed at least one or two more stitches at the top of the second belt loop to make sure its going to not open under pressure. Looking again at the pictures I don't know why I could not have run more stitches just over the top of that belt loop. I think you might be right about that corner looking better rounded. Quote
