Holster Karma...Winner is Masterbuck54
I have not been doing to much leatherwork lately, just can't seem to find the time. Or maybe I've just been lazy.
Anyway, I did do this one a while back as a first try for me in this style. I've seen some here on the forum where there is a leather paddle formed to stick in your pants and when you tighten your belt it holds the holster in place.
I made this one for a J frame snubnose and it came out alright but if I was going to do another one I'd probably change a couple of things. Don't ask what the finish is, it started out one thing and got changed and then ended up like this. My wife likes it because she says it looks old. She likes old stuff, good for me.
I've been wanting to do a karma give-away and this holster got elected. So if you'd like a chance at it throw your name in and we'll draw the winner Tuesday night, 7/1/14 at 9:00 PM CST.
It may not be my best work but the price is right. Good luck.
Greg
Oh, one other thing, that's my M36 in the holster and it's staying here.

That is a beautiful holster, and I've got several j frames that would be honored to ride in a holster like this. Please enter me in this great karma.

That holster looks so good that I'd go out and buy a J frame if I won. So add my name and hopefully we could talk about the present I'll buy myself for the 4th of July.

That is one great looking holster, and I'd like to be on the list. I have 5 J frame snubbies, any of whose appearances would be improved in THAT holster.

Since I can't work a swivel knife, I'd be honored to have the opportunity to receive a hunk of good lookin' leather, hand carved by a forum member.
I like that finish, it looks "rustic."

Holy smokes, I believe that is the best Karma yet. You obviously have many hours into that holster.
My model 49 would sit nice in that baby. Thanks for the chance.

Well Greg, I was just going to comment on how beautiful the workmanship is and reluctantly back out because I too am a southpaw.
If you're willin' to do something for us lefties, I'd be honored to wear anything you create.

That is a nice holster.
I have carried a model 36/60 almost every day since 1980. I have always wanted a paddle but hate the ones with the steel reinforcement since they did not feel good to me. I like this approach better
Please toss my name into the hat.

I would love to use that holster I have a ccw and a j frame just haven't got a holster because can't find a quality holster for the price I would like to spend and this holster is beautiful and would most likely be out of my price range.

Sorry I was not paying attention I am left handed and that's for a right handed person and it would be a waste of a beautiful holster if I got it so take my name out of the drawling that thing deserves to be used.

I don't have a J frame at this time, but I would hope you "find the time" as this holster is beautiful. Great work, if my wife would allow it I'd run right out and purchase a brand new J Frame just in case I won this. Don't add me to the list, someone out there deserves this more than I. Thanks for your generosity and look at your fine craftsmanship sir.
