Default Early Christmas Leather

I've had an order in for quite some time now. It came just the other day. Pretty nice Christmas present, I think.

OK, I was wondering if anyone would be interested. The holster was handmade by Karla Van Horne. Its one of a kind, and she named it Idaho Jack. Fits a 4" N Frame. If you google Purdy Gear, you'll see her website. I think she's one of the best!

That's alright, right there!

I'd like to carve myself up a shoulder rig kinda like that pattern.

Very impressive. Since it is a one-of-a-kind, was the pattern suggested by you? Do you have a fancy belt to match?

Now that takes my breath! Good looking rig, grips too! I will check her out. That would be my style if I could justify the money!

The pattern is all hers. No belt yet.
Those stocks were made for me by Keith Brown a couple of years ago, I've probably shown them off on here till folks are tired of looking at them.
Thanks for all the compliments.

There is no way anyone on this Forum could ever get tired of looking at that spectacular combination of wood,leather, and blue steel.
Thank you for sharing it with us!

I think that is what us older guys would call a perfect 10. Used to use that description for something else, just can't remember what it was though.

That whole rig is somewhere on the far side of outstanding. The holster itself is worthy of building a museum to hold it [when you're not 'BBQ'ing'].

Thanks,
