Members koreric75 Posted May 9, 2018 Members Report Posted May 9, 2018 Just checking to see if anyone out there has a mold gun for a Taurus 617? Quote Machines currently in use: Cowboy 3200, Adler 67-372, Singer 66, Singer 15-91
Contributing Member JLSleather Posted May 9, 2018 Contributing Member Report Posted May 9, 2018 Nope, not here. But from what I'm seeing, looks like she purdy close to the 686.

bikermutt07 Posted May 9, 2018 Report Posted May 9, 2018 617 holds 7 rounds. I don't know if the 686 mold would work. Quote I'm not paying 80 bucks for a belt!!! It's a strip of leather. How hard could it be? 4 years and 3 grand later.... I have a belt I can finally live with. Stitching is like gravy, it's only great if you make it every day. From Texas but in Bossier City, Louisiana.
Members koreric75 Posted May 9, 2018 Author Members Report Posted May 9, 2018 Thanks @JLSleather & @bikermutt07, I have one for a s&w k model, thought I was getting the 357 Magnum, but got the 38, not a big issue thanks to the great info and advice I've been reading over the past months. I will have the actual revolver in hand for this one, and it's not going to be molded as much as a pistol I think... I'm just not sure how the wheel would affect the draw, it'll stay in there, but getting it out... Lol. I haven't tried using them before but was thinking maybe a screw grommet setup like you'd see on kydex holsters to adjust tension. Since I have the k model blue gun I will see if I have a decent piece of leather left over and make one. The holster for the Magnum is a western style so mostly smooth outside with a skirt loop...p.s. I watched a great video today on airbrushing stain sunburst patterns... Lol, it was great, I appreciate anyone that takes the time to setup a camera and document a process and rely heavily on those for many projects. But...I really appreciate watching one where I don't get 10 min in and they're still sitting in front of the camera talking about what they are about to do and then a few seconds of work them back to the poster sitting in a different room talking about what they did and going to do.... Lol. Quote Machines currently in use: Cowboy 3200, Adler 67-372, Singer 66, Singer 15-91

Lol. I think I've seen that one. In fact, I think we all have Mine try to GET TO THE POINT. No fancy "intro" and "sag-way" and music copyrighted by someone else, and name-dropping people I think you may have heard of. It aint a 'how to" video if'n it don't show ya HOW TO.

Or just under it would likely be fine. Never cared for them what got a tensioner screw up at the trigger guard area. Quote "Observation is 9/10 of the law."

Lol true enough...I didn't pay attention at first when I started watching, I was fumbling with my headphones at work so I came in about the part where you were saying here's what these patterns are really good for and folded it inside to keep spray of the inside!... I was like, that sumbich... Then I looked at the poster account and burst out, the captain have me a wierd look 2 minutes ago, JLSleather said: I like 'em toward the low end of the cylinder.

I agree, I think that area would be equally problematic with what I want to avoid... Quote Machines currently in use: Cowboy 3200, Adler 67-372, Singer 66, Singer 15-91

Members koreric75 Posted May 9, 2018 Author Members Report Posted May 9, 2018 Yeah, that too... What was kind of funny was how pissed I got at first. And how loud I was when I laughed my a55 off... And the funny looks... Those are great Quote Machines currently in use: Cowboy 3200, Adler 67-372, Singer 66, Singer 15-91
