New holster for my model 65
I don't think I've purchased a store bought holster in at least a dozen years. The last 3 or 4 concealed carry holsters I custom ordered from Lobo Gun Leather and have been very pleased with them, very pleased indeed.
Just recently one of the guys at work was showing off a new holster a guy in Nebraska had made for him that I thought looked very nice. I looked him up on FB and checked out what I saw so I reached out to him to price me on a OWB holster for my S&W model 65 with 3 inch heavy barrel. Told him I wanted it in natural color. He shot me a price and told me it'd be 3-4 weeks, so we sealed the deal and I mailed him a check. Holster showed up in just under 3 weeks and I think it looks great.

That looks like a very good holster.
Can you or anyone else explain why part of it has two layers of leather? I have seen this before, but do not understand the reasoning behind it.

If you don't mind, how much that set you back? If you don't want to say, I understand. I really like that one for my 3inch 66.

Just ordered a crossdraw hunter from him for my 3inch Model 66-2. Hope it looks as good as yours. I'm sure it will. Now the anticipation begins! I ordered mine in natural also.
