Countryboy976 Report post Posted March 21, 2013 Hello all! I've been reading all the posts here for about a year. This is however my first posting. I want to start by saying thank you to all of you that share your knowledge here. Finding this forum has been a blessing in trying to learn this craft. Now I need to ask for some help. I've got a friend over in Ohio that has asked me to make a holster for a S&W bodyguard 380 semi-auto. I'm attaching it to a shoulder holster I've made for him but I haven't got the gun to make a pattern from. Money is tight so buying a holster for a pattern is out as is buying the blue gun right now. (Saving for my wedding in just a couple months) I've checked local gun shops also and they don't have any in stock. He is leaving on deployment to Egypt soon and I want this to be a gift before he goes. Do any of you have a pattern you could post as a PDF that I can use? I would be very greatful!

Also have him draw a straight line a certain number of inches to verify that the fax did not adjust the submission. There are a number of places on youtube that show you how to use that for the designing of a holster. Hope this helps.
