Tandy Tools - How old is OLD

[2Hill]

It's a very nice looking holster for sure. Now I have some more homework to do. Research Avengers style holsters.

While I have heard of them I have never actually seen a Redhawk in the flesh (steel?). But the grips reminded me of the 686's I have seen or used at the local range. In 357 only though, can't use a handgun with a calibre starting with a 4 for anything other than Western Action or Metallic silhouette out here and my range doesn't do Metallic silhouette.

Just stay away from the Craftool "Z" stamps.  As in Z P260. These are the bottom of the bottom of the barrel of Craftool stamps.  I have a set.  They won't ruin leather in my house if I can help it.  And I won't dupe someone else into buying it.  They are wrapped up and in the bottom of the drawer.  Might even make it to the waste barrel.

There are some special "Z" stamps,  limited runs that are labeled like Z260.  Same quality as standard Craftools, just they didn't make a bunch.

Thanks for that YinTx . It looks like I will be pretty right. I do have one "Z" stamp. But it looks like it might be one of the specials you mentioned. What I have got is:

A-101  For some reason there are two of this one. There is only one of everything else.

B-203, B702, C-429, C-709, J-615, L-949, P206, P210, S-343, S705, U-710, U-855, V-708, V-748, W-553, W-561, X-534 and Z-460 ( I think this one was bought at a later date but am not sure). Plus a swivel knife.

Does this look like the basic starter kit or is something missing?

Your Craftool Co. USA tools will serve you fine, learn to use them first and then upgrade as needed.
