As many here know, I make leather stuff. It's good therapy for my gimpy hands, it's relaxing and I can make a few bucks. I don't advertise much because I know it'll go from a self financing hobby to a job. Then it's a pain in the bottom.
When I make something for myself, I use "economy" grade leather and save the good stuff for clients.
Recently, I've had people asking about leather products, so I threw some stuff in a box to show them some of my work. I also had a request from the forum and I sent them a picture with my 442 in one and a blue gun in the other.
I got to looking at the holsters made with the top grade leather, it snapped cleanly onto my carry snubby and had the perfect amount of retention. My old holster kinda squished into place. I like the design of the new holster better too.
That's my old holster on the left.
This is a shot of the inside of the two holsters, I didn't even bother dyeing the inside of my old holster.
I'm going to start using the new holster, it's just so much nicer than the old holster. I figure it's ok, I can just show the tan holster and tell people that I can make the same thing in brown, dark brown or black.
