holsters
I must admitt I have a thing for belts, sheathes, and holsters. I recently read a post on open bottoms and closed and the basket weave holster in the last post set me off. You could say I like the holsters as much as the gun. I think since I was a child and watched batman pull those really cool gadgets out his belt I was hooked. So a request to all you I would really like to see those belt knife gun holster ....etc set up. I'm not looking for just the bbq set ups, but they are more than welcome, I would like to see all the different set ups. Leather is my favorite plain, floral, basket weave, etc... post them if you got them. I remember seeing a few pictures here and there but haven't run across any threads as of yet. thanks in advance Doeboy

Thats exactly what I'm talking about keep em comming. though I have alot of holsters I don't have anything that floats my boat. I have a few cowboy holsters. Just the combination of leather steel and wood are a big part of the things i love.

I don't have any with belts but here's a couple of holsters I made. I don't think I've shown these before.
I also have a thing for leather.

I didn't think of leather butt pads but what a great idea! i would love to see more open carry around just to see the different personalities in each holster. I think the art of matching a gun to leather, knife to leather, or even knife to gun is a real indication of ones personality. I love everything that has come through! keep it going I know there are more out there. How bout some pistol, rifle, knife rigs? How bout some rigs that you would wear just to go "walkabout" (croc dundee) in other words a rig you would take into the wilderness maybe gone a day or a month. I know you've thought about it. Doesn't matter if it's new or old, home made or store bought. Maybe even the rig you would wear when they put you in the ground or the rigs you would leave the kids. I want to see them all. Share the art with us show your pride and joy. DOEBOY

I picked this scabbard up in Mexico last month. My wife says it doesn't take much to amuse me. I couldn't believe Customs didn't even want to take a peek inside it.

This may not be what you were looking for, but I just found them on my old photobucket account. I tried to delete them but it wouldn't let me. Anyway these were all custom made by JRL Leather in Southington, Ohio, (Some were made earlier in his Newton Falls shop before he moved.), except for the top middle which might be a Bianchi 100R or a JRL, it's too hard to tell in the photo.

Here is one that was just given to me by a friend, it's a S&W Duty Holster for a 4" N frame, It showed a bit of wear so i cleaned it up, beeswaxed it and the polished it. It is now ready for duty, the thing is I don't have a 4" N frame, so I have to buy a gun to go in it. I think it was his plan from the get go.

Dave, That looks great! Would you be so kind as to tell or illustrate how you put all that together on the backside. I can't figure out the best way to attach the belt, strap, or whatever the proper term would be for the piece that encircles the holster. Thanks, Greg

Greg,
You can use slots and rivets or chicago screws to attach the garter.

Thank you very much. I am currently making one with a "garter", and I attached it with snaps. It'll work, but I'm not real happy with it. I'll try the Chigago Screws.

Very nice holster, although I would have completely covered the trigger.

Thanks. I left it open intentionally. I like the way it looks better. Although it appears unsafe, I think it would be unlikely that the safety would be disengaged, grip safety depressed, and trigger pulled, all without my knowledge.
