Members Ran Posted March 2, 2013 Author Members Report Posted March 2, 2013 Very nice, Mike! I thought about doing a wide strap like that, but wanted to try the buckle thing. Quote

Members Ran Posted March 5, 2013 Author Members Report Posted March 5, 2013 This is fantastic. Everything is absolutely top notch. What dye did you use to get this fabulous color? Regards KN KN...thank you. I just sponged on Tandy's Pro Water based stain. Light brown and dark brown. I'm a LONG time woodworker/cabinet maker, etc., but have been doing leatherwork only for a short time. One of the many things I have found that leatherwork and woodworking have in common is that (like wood) not all leathers are created equal when it comes to how they accept stain. I sometimes consider myself just plain old lucky when I get a finish like the one on this holster. But, having said that (and again, much like woodworking), I have also found that I keep getting better and better at achieving the finish I'm looking for.. Randy Quote

Frank Posted March 5, 2013 Report Posted March 5, 2013 (edited) Nice job on the rig. Hopefully the belt can hold that monster in place! Any good caliber really should start with a number 4.

Members BigRiverLeather Posted March 5, 2013 Members Report Posted March 5, 2013 (edited) That's awesome! Nice color. I did this one shortly after I started working with leather for a co-worker to chest carry his S&W Performance Center 500, 10.5" barrel with a scope. Here's the bad news - I brought it to him, he started to put it on, looked at me and said - "this if for a right handed guy" I forgot a very improtant question at the time, RH or LH? Ended up making a whole new one for him. Hand Stitched! Here is the peashooter that went in it Edited March 5, 2013 by BigRiverLeather Quote Big River Leather
