Members MarlinDave Posted December 16, 2021 Members Report Posted December 16, 2021 How do you draw that thing? Quote
Members Hags Posted December 17, 2021 Members Report Posted December 17, 2021 (edited) That's pretty nice! I like the reloads. And there is no way to draw a barrel that long fast. My guess is he grabs the bottom left strap with his left hand and the handle in his right. But now else could you carry it dressed as he is? I found a fox skin at a garage sale last year. Gave a buck for it and have yet to use it. Looking for someone who is a frontiersman who could use it as it should be. Edited December 17, 2021 by Hags Spelling and content Quote Not so retired RN.

It's not like it's going to fall out but he does get it out surprisingly fast it comes out with one hand but your right even though it has a belt at the waist I think you still have a tendency to grab the bottom .

That is a nice rig by any standard and it looks like he could carry it cross draw also which would make it super easy to draw.. I woulda had it under that slicker.

Contributing Member Samalan Posted December 17, 2021 Author Contributing Member Report Posted December 17, 2021 So this is that holster raw you can see the belt hole at the bottom of the holster also the attachment at the trigger guard and the top attachment d ring so the belt runs through from the back to front and over the front of the holster over to the buckle hope this explains the set up it works very well it took a long time to plan out how it would work what a fun job.

Yes it holds it down on the draw also simple setup it is sometimes simple is the best way I left the toe open to let dirt and stuff but I am wondering if he thinks it's a rain hole so the holster doesn't fill up LOL Quote
Members MarlinDave Posted December 17, 2021 Members Report Posted December 17, 2021 I have made several of the Ben Thompson type for single actions but they go under the opposite armpit crossdraw. Would love to see it in action. I really like where the cartridge loops are. Quote

I watched him use it in my shop I said to him no no It go's higher like this he said no no it go's like this got to say he draws that thing out like nothing I do know one thing he is in love with it. I've got deer meat bear meet home made wine and all new lighting in my Factory and home shops talk about pay backs I owe him . LOL Quote
Members MarlinDave Posted December 18, 2021 Members Report Posted December 18, 2021 (edited) Is the belt dedicated to the holster or uses the pants belt? Does he draw right handed or left? Is that a snap buckle on the strap at the top of the holster? It just looks very neat. Thanks for sharing it. Sorry for all the questions, just need to wrap my head around it. I have a 10 1/2 inch Blackhawk and I made a belt holster for it. Hangs past my knee. Too long for your type rig too I fear for me. I just need to get taller. Edited December 18, 2021 by 327fed Quote

Is the belt dedicated to the holster yes does he draw right handed or left right is that a snap buckle at the top of the holster no it's a quick disconnect and screws I think you can do this for 10.5 " with no problem it might even be better set the lower loop a bit more to the middle of the holster that would work even better you can adjust this holster more to the center of your chest he has it were he likes it but not how i would were it that's for sure it's a simple build make one and have fun with it if I can help let me know . Good luck Quote
Members Hags Posted December 19, 2021 Members Report Posted December 19, 2021 I made a chest rig for a 9.5` 44 mag. My post is still up in holsters, super redhawk 44mag with aimpoint. Mine sit a bit more diagonally and have a different strap set up. Might work. Quote Not so retired RN. Living on the Washington Peninsula.
