Custom Shoulder Holster
I need to find someone to stitch up a custom shoulder holster and ammo pouches. I can supply drawing/photo of what I need. Any of you leather/holster guys know of anyone who would take on a single project like this? 
regards
Chuck

Some options to think about are either a cobbler or tack shop, if you can't find a dedicated holster maker. Failing those, find a motorcycle shop and see where they send customers to get patches sewn on leather vests and jackets. Any of the three should have a machine strong enough to do what you require.

I would check Sideguard Holsters. I think the maker is a member here and uses the name SRIGS.

Might try a boat awning shop if you are near a water rec area or the coast.
They usually have an old Singer Sail Makers Machine that is up to the job and they usually do piece work.

Chuck, Just go down to your nearest military surplus store and pick up one of those surplus QSPR holsters! They should work just fine! ( Yuk Yuk!) Ed.

Holster pic added
Ed, I wish. Here is the holster I'm looking for. I believe it was made by Bucheimer but not sure of that. Thanks to all who have emailed me with suggestions.
Regards
Chuck

I have three Bucheimer shoulder holsters but none like the one you pictured. Very interesting design, the flap on the revolver gives it a military look. Hard to tell but it might have belt hooks on the holster, almost looks like the 1950s-1960s USAF flight crew holsters for K frame 2". I'm sure a custom holster maker can produce a duplicate, it wont be cheap but will last a lifetime.
