I've been tinkering with making holsters for about a year. I thought I'd post a few pics and open it up for any feedback or suggestions. I've sold a few on ebay but haven't been able to crack the code to do that consistently; lots of views and watchers but only random bids.

It doesn't seem to me that quality or workmanship is an issue; those holsters look solid and well made. Maybe it's marketing, pricing, or some other factor ....?

Overall, not a bad piece of gear. However, I'd suggest cleaning up the stitching. I noticed on one photo that it had the appearance of having the stitch holes drilled out. I'd recommend not doing that and get a diamond point punch if you're still hand stitching.

goodfella - I have came to the same conclusion with ebay. I did a good bit of research on what holsters are listed and selling, mostly cheap, generic, one size fits all. Going to give the gun show route a shot.

Maybe make a website or an Etsy store with business cards to pass out at gun shows. You also might want to talk to your local gun store as well. Maybe they'd like to sell your work.
