Members TBigLug Posted March 27, 2017 Members Report Posted March 27, 2017 Built it for my wife's short barrel G&G. Definitely better stitched than my adapter. Ised chisels and thicker thread. Mahogony stain. 8-9 oz leather. Bag kote. Didn't turn out too bad. Had no pattern so I started fully from scratch on this one, lol. Quote
Members TBigLug Posted March 27, 2017 Author Members Report Posted March 27, 2017 Last pic. Could have stood to be another 1/4 inch longer but it works for me. I like my holsters open ended anyway. Quote
Members Grumpymann Posted March 27, 2017 Members Report Posted March 27, 2017 Nice job ! could you let me know about your staining process? Quote
Members TBigLug Posted March 27, 2017 Author Members Report Posted March 27, 2017 Pretty basic. Started with raw veg tan leather. Wiped down with deglazer on a towel. Immediately applied mahogony dye with a tack sponge going left to right, top to bottom then top to bottom, right to left to cover from all directions. Let dry 30 min then on with stitching. Normally I punch my stitch holes before dying but I got in a rush last night. Quote
