Great looking group of holsters.
I'm always in awe of people who can do work like that with their hands. Same applies to woodworking. I have ZERO talent for that sort of thing.

Yup! You'll have to git in line. He's busier than a cat coverin' piles.

Texas leather
Lawandorder, my apologies. Here's what I meant to say:
Outstanding collection of gun leather . I've never seen a Finney
Bros. holster before-I particularly like the carving on that one.
Sometimes I forget my manners. Thanks for posting this.
Regards,
turnerriver

Are you refering to David Bullard? He makes great rigs and is really nice to deal with. I see him at the Ft Worth gunshow sometimes.

Cowboy45,
No, I'm referring to fellow forumite Dave Keith. He has made rigs for several on this forum including me.

John no apology necessary. I have had a couple of Mr. Ball's holsters before but never one as beautiful as yours. Thank you for sharing it.
The Campos one is interesting I just had it made by Mr. Campos. He is getting on up in years. Had found a beauty of a triple laced 1911 holster by S.D. Myres that needed some repairs and checked with Mr. Campos. He had worked for both Myres and Blumel back in the day. He did a great job of repairing it and then made me the one shown as his version of the same holster. He is a true craftsman.
Have never seen another King Ranch holster before this one.
