Members jackd942 Posted January 19, 2014 Members Report Posted January 19, 2014 Anybody else seen the Texas Ranger rig she wears in this show? I'm feeling the urge to make something similar...can't find many good pics of it tho... Quote http://DavisLeather.blogspot.com http://Facebook.com/DavisCustomLeather
Members harley45 Posted January 19, 2014 Members Report Posted January 19, 2014 It's a beautiful rig I'm toying with trying something like that to use for our range days at the PD I work for. Quote
Members longtooth Posted January 19, 2014 Members Report Posted January 19, 2014 Wonder if Will Ghromley was the maker. He does lots of Hollywood holsters. Quote
Members harley45 Posted January 19, 2014 Members Report Posted January 19, 2014 I found a better pic of the belt buckle she uses and I'm pretty sure it's the same one they sell at the Texas Ranger Hall of Fame museum. They are made by inmates, I'd like to see a closeup of the holster though it has a flap on the outside top that I'm not sure if it is a thumb break or a hammer thong Quote
Mike Craw Posted January 19, 2014 Report Posted January 19, 2014 (edited) Looks like the rig worn by Nick Nolte in "Extreme Prejudice". His holster and belt are copies of the leather that Texas Ranger Jackson actually wore. The holster is the style credited to A.W. Brill and a variation is available from El Paso Saddle company. Hope this helps. Mike P.S. Just went online and searched both Ranger Joaquin Jackson and A.W. Brill. The Jackson search had a couple photos of him, but none showed useable close-ups of his leather gear. The A.W. Brill search had quite a few detailed close-ups of this type of rig that you might find useful.

Members jackd942 Posted January 19, 2014 Author Members Report Posted January 19, 2014 I did notice that there seems to be more than 1 rig at least in the promo photos. There is another rig in some if the pics that has some red or burgundy in it as well as flaps and snaps over the mag pouches. Hard to find any good detailed pics of any of it tho...in watching the show, the only setup I've seen her wear is the one I posted. Thanks for the info Mike, I'll do a little research and see what I can find on A.W. Brill... Quote http://DavisLeather.blogspot.com http://Facebook.com/DavisCustomLeather
Members camano ridge Posted January 20, 2014 Members Report Posted January 20, 2014 Here is a picture of Jouquin Jackson his rig has similarities. Quote https://www.facebook.com/CamanoRidgeCustomLeather?fref=ts
Members Red Cent Posted January 20, 2014 Members Report Posted January 20, 2014 (edited) Nick Nolte did use Joaquin Jackson as an adviser on his leather in Extreme Prejudice. Nolte practically copied Jackson's holster. And I agree that her holster is a clone/copy of Nolte's. Scroll down about 2/3 of the way. There is an "Extreme Prejudice" holster and some comments on our subject. http://www.westernle...rical-holsters/ Edited January 20, 2014 by Red Cent Quote https://www.facebook.com/redcentcustomleather?ref=bookmarks http://www.redcentcustomleather.com/
Members camano ridge Posted January 20, 2014 Members Report Posted January 20, 2014 If you scroll down a little further on Reds link you will see the buckle set that looks like the one on her belts Quote https://www.facebook.com/CamanoRidgeCustomLeather?fref=ts
