Members Somiskid Posted October 12, 2020 Members Report Posted October 12, 2020 Howdy yall! What is the oz leather that is best for holsters? I will be doing both cowboy style ans formed carry holsters. Quote
Members AzShooter Posted October 12, 2020 Members Report Posted October 12, 2020 I'm using a lot of 6 -7 ounce and recently bought some 9 ounce. I like the heavier leather. It holds up better. I usually line my holster so they are 2 thicknesses of the leather used. They are stiff and hold onto their form for years. Quote
Members kiwican Posted October 12, 2020 Members Report Posted October 12, 2020 I've made three holsters now and used 7-8 ounce. No complaints so far Quote
Members chiefjason Posted October 16, 2020 Members Report Posted October 16, 2020 I use 8-10 oz for my backs and level 8 oz on the front. If the holster is one piece of leather it's 8 oz. Quote
