Couple Of Cheyene Holsters And Ranger Style Belts

[camano ridge]

These were made for an NCOWS member (National Congress of Old West Shooters) He wanted them period correct (for the late 1800's) and not fancy. He wanted one plain and one with just some border tooling. The ranger style belts are just basic as requested by the customer. Each has 40 hand sewn cartridge loops.

The first holster is based on one done by F.A. Meanea, pictured in Packing Iron. The border is my rendition of the one in the picture.

The second holster is based on one being worn by a person named Edward Bronson in a picture taken about 1873.

Very classic. I think you nailed the look of that time period.

Sweet! My kids are trying to get me to make cartridge belts for them.

Beautiful. I gotta try one.

Very nice job on these two rigs! I like period correct holsters and gun belts!
