Edit: Identified, see posts below

Credit to Red Nichols for coming up with the nickname for this as yet unidentified-maker holster. Perhaps someone will eventually be able to help us nail it down.

Thank you for showing this.
Interesting to see the tooling inside the belt loop...

Red, yes, I saw that upon doing a Google search but was unable to find anything with regards to holsters or leatherwork associated with the man.

Hey guys -- this was fun to find! Stacy Becknell was my grandfather and yes, he sure loved leatherwork and was very talented. He especially loved servicing law enforcement and those in the San Angelo, TX area.
