Members AA3JW Posted January 11, 2021 Members Report Posted January 11, 2021 I am building Tom Threepersons holster from the Will Ghormley 1911 100th anniversary holster pack. His pattern does not include a safety strap. The Pictures I have seen of the early holsters do not have a safety strap, but all the ones I see available to day do. so my question is Should I put a strap on it or not? Quote
Contributing Member fredk Posted January 11, 2021 Contributing Member Report Posted January 11, 2021 I see that as a personal choice Do you want an 'historically' accurate holster? or a holster with a modern safety feature? Quote
Members JWheeler331 Posted January 13, 2021 Members Report Posted January 13, 2021 If the holster fits properly then a strap is not as necessary. I have found that most people wanting a holster these days want a strap. It makes them feel better I guess. I myself like to build historically accurate holsters and prefer not to put the straps on them but realize that many customers may want the strap. Quote
