RedDun Report post Posted February 2, 2018 Finally saying howdy, I've been around for a bit but haven't had much to say (strong silent type?). I have been doing leather work for about a year and have found answers to most of my questions here as well as from a local guy I bought my mounted shooting holsters from. Have done a variety of things and loving it. Always trying to improve, I love seeing all of the incredible work you all post. You show a level to strive for, that is for sure! Thanks for all of the sharing!! Tessa Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DJole Report post Posted February 3, 2018 Having a forum like this is a great thing-- in the non-digital world, how would we ever have found all these answers? How many actual leather workers could we have actually met and learned from? Welcome to the forum, RedDun, and glad to have you aboard! It's likely that somebody will ask a question about horses or mounted shooting and you can get to be the expert of the day! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

olfart Report post Posted February 4, 2018 Welcome from NE Texas! I look forward to seeing your work. How does a mounted shooting holster vary from a non-mounted? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is personal preference on how they are worn, but most wear them like I have them on in this photo. I did not make the ones I am wearing. Heavy duty, most have their guns in pretty snug so they don't fall out- but that's how my EDC holsters are too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
olfart Report post Posted February 5, 2018 OK, thanks for that clarification. Looks like a semi-crossdraw application in the photo. That looks like a fun sport! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RedDun Report post Posted February 5, 2018 Finally got this image to upload, it shows the setup better than the other photo. I made this belt when the original that came with the holsters didn't fit work anymore. This was my first try at a mounted shooting gun belt- it works but I don't love it- but I also got it done in under a week due to a competition coming up and didn't have other options. 2 hours ago, olfart said: OK, thanks for that clarification.

olfart Report post Posted February 5, 2018 Thanks for the images. The belts look great! I may have to tackle a belt someday. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
