Members Rayban Posted October 19, 2008 Members Report Posted October 19, 2008 Well it's my first one for a real gun, let's say....after making several knife sheaths, I found this to be rather simple. Just a bit more leather of course. The belt for this Plinking Rig is on the table now....but I can't wait to make another one of these....kinda have to anyway since I messed up on the stamping on this one. If you see any glaring no-nos, please let me know.... Quote Raybanwww.rgleather.net
Randyc Posted October 20, 2008 Report Posted October 20, 2008 Rayban Thats a good looking holster. I wished my first holster looked that good. As a matter of fact, I wish my last holster looked that good. Post photos of your belt when you finish it. I used to own a couple of Ruger single actions myself. I wish I still had one so that I could build a western rig for it. Randy Quote Randy Cooley Bulldog Custom Gun Leather www.bulldogleathercompany.com
Members paris3200 Posted October 20, 2008 Members Report Posted October 20, 2008 Good looking holster. I failed to find a flaw in the stamping. Quote http://www.parisleatherworks.com
Members dbusarow Posted October 20, 2008 Members Report Posted October 20, 2008 Nice! I like the simple border pattern. Waiting for my basic 7 to arrive so I can try stamping something and I think I'll use your's for inspiration if that's OK.

Members BOOMSTICKHolsters Posted October 20, 2008 Members Report Posted October 20, 2008 Nice work. Since you're gonna make a new one anyhow, and you found this one easy, why not go ahead and line the inside with some 2/3 oz. leather? It will look that much nicer when you're done! Quote
Members Rayban Posted October 20, 2008 Author Members Report Posted October 20, 2008 Thanks ya'll...I just may have to line my next one Boomer, and you're right, I'm sure it will look that much better. Just not looking forward to all that hand stitching...I'm basically a pretty lazy guy. Good looking holster. I failed to find a flaw in the stamping.well then let's just forget I brought it up Quote Raybanwww.rgleather.net
Members Shorts Posted October 20, 2008 Members Report Posted October 20, 2008 Beautiful! What color is that? Quote
Members Rayban Posted October 20, 2008 Author Members Report Posted October 20, 2008 Beautiful!What color is that? ...well, it's suppossed to be Fiebings light brown.....I tried a little reducer in it because I knew it would be darker than "light brown".....but when I went over it again to try to smooth it out, it got darker anyway....and I was fighting with a dobber that was falling apart...I've said it before and I'll say it again...I miss Pro Dye...please come back, I've changed!!

Members mattsh Posted October 21, 2008 Members Report Posted October 21, 2008 Looks pretty dang nice for a first holster. I like the color you ended up with. Very Nice.

Members Warren Posted October 22, 2008 Members Report Posted October 22, 2008 Nothing wrong with it that I can see! Much better than the first one I made. Quote
