Forum member 05CarbonDRZ just made me this holster and I am astounded at the quality and fast turnaround (less than a week). I carry my 617 around the outdoors quite a bit and am also a pretty serious frogger in the summertime. I drag it around the ponds and creeks while in canoes/kayaks and have been toting it in a pancake holster made for an L Frame. I know, I know, playing with fire right? Well I have always admired Alex's work and the Tom Threeperson's style of holster. I PMd Alex and told him what I wanted and boy did he deliver. This won't be my last holster from him.

Alex does great work, I still need to get pics up of the leather he did for me a few months back!
 
For what it's worth, damn fine job, excellent craftsmanship by any standard. Well, well executed. He gets this old dogs endorsement. I am extremely pleased to see any new maker (or old, if you are, I don't know you or have ever heard of your work until now) produce excellent quality goods like that. It promotes the craft for the future and provides consumers and admirers of our hobby/collecting/sport, with top notch gear. Very well done, you make me, and countless others, proud to be a holster maker, son!

Cheers;
Lefty

Alex;
That was so well done. Was it machine stitched ir hand saddle stitched? I don't see a foot mark anywhwere. Damn fine job.

To add to this, I will tell you guys that during the late 1960's, whew a long time ago, I impulsively bought a nearly identical holster for a M&P, while I waited for a Gaylord design model I had crafted. You see, There was a girl, yup a very, very pretty girl. And I was a very dumb starstruck half city/half cowhand/brand new big city cop.....a lotta stuff goin' on in the attic, few rats up there probably. Anyway just got my Uncle's M&P, and we're going to a mucic production studio under the Queensboro or 59th. Street bridge, in Astoria,to jam playing R&R. Well the dude collecting the cash from the band nearly....well you know...when he saw my piece. I suppose I was an early "GANGSTA" HA! HA!

Gotta stop drinking bourbon, sorry Lee, when I'm on the FORUM....NAH! See you guys!
