New Shoulder Rig For My Long Range Hand Cannon.

Madadh.....here you go.

Also, The extra thick piece on the left side of the holster is a hand grab to stabilize the holster as you are drawing the gun.....otherwise the retention around the scope from wet-molding makes the whole holster want to lift. I added that when the problem arose and it works great. If I make another, that part would be more like a hook for my left thumb. I just oiled it with neatsfoot and in a few days, I will seal it all up with some spray wax.

It looks amazing! How did you do the wetmolding and tooling? Did you do the tooling beforehand?

Yes I stitched it all together flat. Then i tooled it as crisp and deep as possible. Then I wet it pretty good. I put the gun in a 2 gallon zip lock and stuffed it in there. I pushed around on the scope area to give it some retention and let it dry over night. The next day I dyed it, then two days later gave it a good rubbing with neetsfoot oil. I will let it dry a few days and then I will spray it inside and out with some fiebing's satin sheen.

Nice looking. I especially like the variation in the color. Used to have a Contender in .222 with a scope. It came with a holster rig, but that was way back before I started doing leather.
