Holster For my Brother Ben

My Brother Ben is a great guy. He is a loyal friend, and help full person. He is eager to please and will do anything to help you. I hope he sees this, cause I love him and I hope he knows it.

I made this holster in a very short amount of time, I think I was able to make it inone night, although it took me a second night to color it. I used a Black with a Mahogany on the front. Every time time I decide to do something artistic on a holster I rarely plan it out, Mostly I think of something while the tool is in my hand and hope it looks OK. My Wife said she liked it, she said it looks very "Volcom-y." Which I'm sure is not a word, but I don't dare argue.

I've been busy, just not busy posting






This is a favorite of mine, Luckly it went to a favorite friend of mine.
This is a kydex holster wrapped in leather, with a custom leather paddle made completly by me. I like the way kydex holds a gun, but I dont like how they look. I like the look of leather, so I was able to wrap the leather around and using the tension screws attach it to the kydex very securely. It's not possible with every kydex holster, but if you like this let me know i'm sure i can work something out for you.
Hope you enjoy it Gary!

Miami Vice shoulder rig







This rig was also for a local Correctional officer carring off duty. It is also made for a 1911 or clone. I really liked this holster, a little bit more expensive than a regular belt holster, but I really liked how it fit and held the gun. I almost didn't want to sell it, till I remembered I can always make another.

Still Avalible--Sold!




I made this for a local Correctional officer, he decided after seeing another holster that he wanted the other one, so I have this holster waiting for a home. It was made for a kimber custom tle 2 it will fit any 1911 clone. Might even work with a 3/4 tactical rail but I'm not sure.
Contact me for prices. I'm not giving this away, but I'm cheaper than mass produced stuff.

Uncle Scott's Holster




It's been awhile, I have been working on new things. Recently my Uncle got wind of this little hobby and requested a holster, something to fit the middle of the back. So here is what came of it. I think I forgot to take pictures of the finished product, although it's not much different than the pictures you see, I did oil it and finish the edges, I decided not to dye it, because the leather turned out a very nice color on it's own.

This is one of my favorites. This is one of my Guns, the reason why I started making holsters in the first place. I made this holster about a year and a half after I started making holsters. This particular 1911 has a full light rail to the end of the barrel. Unlike the popular style today of a 3/4 light rail. This fact made it almost impossible to find a holster that it would fit in, I decided on day to make my own. It took the full year and a half to get good enough to make something I liked enough to wear, and this was it. I have found nice Kydex hosters that fit my gun perfectly since, but I still wear this at the range every time.







This is an early holster I made just after I learned what and how to "carve" leather. It turned out O.K. I have made a lot of improvements over time. While I like this style of holster, i don't think I will carve that again. The Gun is a Smith and Wesson something or other.





This holster is made for a 1911, a nice looking Sig actually, the client wanted a clip with the gun. This Holster looks too big to wear, but i compared it to a regular Duty pancake holster for a Beretta 92F and they are the same size, approximately.
