JWheeler331 Report post Posted February 20, 2021 Anyone know where I can get a pattern for a 1911 Chest Rig? Looking to make a holster for my dad and I think he would benefit from a chest holster while out walking on his farm. Any help would be greatly appreciated it.

JLSleather Report post Posted February 20, 2021 Stohlmans book on How To Make Holsters has patterns for 1911 pistol AND a shoulder harness - should be very easy to adapt both to something that suits your dad. I don't really make those rigs (for years now) but I would recommend SOME type of retaining strap. Bending over on the farm (or over the edge of the boat to lip that bass) can go badly in a hurry (yeah, I know for a fact). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I will try to check out the book and see what's in there. Thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
