BigMack1990 Report post Posted November 22, 2014 Hello, I am new to the forum and fairly new to leather working. I want to make a holster for my fathers 1911 modeled after the WWII style over the shoulder. I was wondering if anyone knows where to find the certain type of snap they used on the top strap that holds the gun in the holster? I am just going to use a regular snap for the belt strap but was trying to make it authentic. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
