Seeing the lacing reminds that I saw a post on a Facebook holster forum wondering what leather to use for lacing holsters; nothing seemed to be tough enough. Plenty of suggestions including kangaroo (which is famously used as lacing) and I had to mention that the tough leather used for holster lacing is rawhide. As in 'raw hide', wetted until it's soft, then laced, then when dry as hard as a nylon toothbrush handle.

Yes Red, I believe it was made for something like a Hi Standard
HB. The stamped info is 66LS. The LS means laced and stamped (basket weave). Down below the Idaho Leather it
says RA. Rimfire Auto? The seller said it was for a 1911 and
it does fit. Kinda.
Actually I had a Hi-Standard a long time ago. Think it was HB or HD.
This just proves we should never get rid of a gun.
