Members OLDNSLOW Posted January 6, 2017 Members Report Posted January 6, 2017 (edited) This one is from the patterns that Jeff JLF kindly provides all those wanting learn and grow without having to reinvent the wheel, one of the holsters I did have to modify the stitch lines and pattern by extending them about a 1/4 inch all the way around and move the stitch line to accommodate a CZ pistol that has a completely different trigger guard over a 45 ACP. The holster sill more work to be done to be completed, this is just an example of how to take the original and move and change this just a bit to work with other models that might come along.

Based on his 1911 avenger pattern. I use a sewn in Sight channel so I didnt want to use the large wrap around piece but just a throat support. Jeff's Pattern has both. I beefed it up some and I made the back a little wider. It serves to really stiffen the holster. I have used the same throat/belt strap setup on a few other avenger style holsters and it works really well. Absolutely no bounce and little stretch. As always Jeff's patterns are mechanically economical in leather usage and his stitch lines would take me 80 tries to get as close as his. THANKS JEFF!!! First time trying this pattern so I didnt invest the time in the dye I usually do. No reason for me to "take any credit" there... yer show on this one! Lookin' good, too. You coulda used teh "wrap around piece" with the stitched channel - just gotta think the order of operations (I know you likely already did , I'm saying that for the next reader). Lookin' good all over, fellas --- this is the point of those patterns... add yer own style... just a starting point! Now, I gotta catch a mail man and decide how I feel about being called "mechanically economical), which sounds a tad like 'anatomically sparse" Oh,..checkn' later, but how wide did you make the site channel strips?
