Had a customer request a Western style holster for a Colt 1911. Not the best gun for that type of holster. I came up with this. I think it could have had a little more floral work, and less background, but I tried to match up with an existing belt he uses. I'm pretty happy with it overall.

Beautiful !! I think from all the semi autos, the 1911 has the perfect platform for a western style holster and you sure executed it :)

The tooling and color/finish are beautiful!  What color and finish did you use?

Thanks CraftyNick. The color is Tandy's EcoFlo mahogany gel antique. I applied the antique directly on the raw leather. The picture is slightly browner than the actual color. I finished it with Master spray with lanolin and wax. That's a product made for shoes.
