Pattern for 1911 Colt .45 Semi-Automatic Needed

[Deaf Ranger]

I need to find a pattern for a Colt 1911 Semi-Automatic holster. If you have one, I am willing to buy.  Have any ideas where to buy?  I have been looking all over, but apparently not in the right places.  need to do it quickly.  Thanks for any help.

There is one on page 30 of Al Stohlman's book, How to make holsters.
Heres a link.

Its kind of a westerny style holster, but looks good!

Good luck. DM

Packing Iron has a good photo of a late frontier (1915-1920) holster for the 1911 at page 132.  I made up my own pattern. it wasn't difficult.  As for style, you could adapt any frontier style that takes your fancy.  I'm thinking about a Texas Jockstrap style.  I have the Al Stohlman pattern book #40.  The patterns look good, and also provide tooling ideas.

For a factory offering, look at El Paso Saddlery's 1930 "Austin".
