    I did it. Open carried for the first time.

While it may not be my preferred method, I do not disparage others so inclined--being a firm believer that any right not exercised is a right that will soon be lost.

    Re-Dying a Pistol Holster.

    Normally I am a strong believer that if a gun/holster/etc is yours, do whatever makes you happy---however, there are exceptions, and your holster is one. WWII equippage (esp. Nazi items) are very collectible, but only if in original condition--- You could sell your holster to a collector and...
