To me there is nothing like old black gunleather. Here are a few of the black holsters and ammo pouches.

Here is my Model 57 and M & P .38 in a pair of duty holsters. The Model 57 is in a S & W holster and the M & P is in a floral Tex Shoemaker.



Here is my Outdoorsman in a long Safety Speed holster.



Here is my K22 in a Don Hume basketweave



My Model 57 again in a really nice little Bianchi with a Bucheimer cartridge slide. This was originally brown, but it was pretty worn so I cut off the bottom loops which were dried out and rotted off before I dyed it.



Here is a Jay Pee cartridge slide I carry some .357's in along with a Jay Pee pouch.

Not black, but old none the less.





A Heiser holster that is most likely about 20 years older than the K22 in it.

This one was made for me when I retired from APD by an old retired Alaska State Trooper.


This is the Hoyt break front I carried when I was on APD.



This one left the army with me and I used it when I was in the Alaska National Guard.

It's not old, in fact I just finished it this morning. My first K frame pancake holster. Certainly not the quality of some of the beautys in this thread but it serves the purpose.


I put the finger groove grips on the M65-5 Ladysmith this morning also. Might as well show it off.
