Double shoulder rig, Desert Eagle's

Recommended Posts

I'm calling it the "Smith Rig".  
 
My LGS called me up a few weeks ago to talk to this guy.  I originally tried to get out of it but he kept telling me I had to do this.  Talked to the guy for a while, decided to give it a shot.  I mean, who doesn't want a NY reload for Desert Eagles? 
 
Since this is my first real shoulder rig I mocked it up completely with scrap leather.  made some mistakes that I fixed in the finished product. 
 
The second mocked up side.  The first one ended up flat side out, swapped the pattern for this one.

I agree about the should pads...and don't go swimmin' with all that iron strapped on...but, boy oh boy, what a rig!  Doesn't even stand out under the cover garment either.  Great craftsmanship, Chief! Design, color...all of it...well done! As you said...a serious New Your reload!

After talking to him it was too crazy not to give it a shot.  Seems the crazy ones are the most fun.  This one.  The S&W 500 cross draw.  And one odd SOB holster I made over the summer.  The normal stuff gets a bit boring and these mix things up.

Yeah I hear ya. My brother in law wants an sob. I don't understand it myself. But everyone's different I guess. 

A cross draw for sw 500? Really? Sounds interesting

Yeah, I've made about 6 of them so far.  And used the same pattern for a stealth hunter too.

 I have used the same cross draw to mount to a chest strap for a chest rig.  I can actually conceal that one but you have to button the shirt up.  Wore it to my LGS and around for a little but just for giggles.  Actually was not that bad, even driving with it on.

That S&W 500 looks sweet. Heavy ass gun. But good for the zombie apocalypse. Just them up
