Lawman leather acquisitions
Some of you know of my addiction to vintage leather and I wanted to share some recent acquisitions with you. These holsters were made and carried by former Sheriff Brent Button of Hill County Texas. He was the 4th longest-serving sheriff in Texas history at the time of his retirement several years ago. He not only made holsters for his own use,but for numerous LEOS,friends and family. I feel fortunate to have these in my collection. Shown with a Walther PPKS,a 686 Smith,a Nazi Hi Power and a Colt Commander. I should add that they may not have all been intended for the guns that are in them at this time. They just look better "loaded".

Tom, thanks for sharing the cool pictures, I'm really enjoy the pictures of old time law men and their equipment. Perhaps it's nostalgia or more likely Senility in my case, but whatever it is still fun.
