Matt Alsaker Report post Posted January 24, 2013 I just saw these and commented up in the photo gallery. Very nicely done. I've never had any real luck molding a double magazine pouch. That one looks outstanding. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
troop Report post Posted January 24, 2013 Thanks Matt. i got the idea a while back to make mag molds out of high density polyethylene. i had a friend who does wood working carve out the blanks and molds to my specs. i wet the leather and press into the molds with my harbor freight 12 ton press. they come out much cleaner that way.

Colt Hammerless Report post Posted January 24, 2013 Just commented on these in your gallery too. Hard to believe that's you're first attempt! That's actually a really good concealed carry rig, because I spent so much time looking at the holster itself, I didn't realize there was a gun in it!
