My first try

BBAYS · March 10, 2011, 12:22:02 PM

Decided to try my hand at a couple of Western Holters. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Welcome to the Leather Shop.

Wow! If this is your first attempt at making Holsters you did a beautiful job. The designs are classic and the workmanship is excellent.
Look forward to seeing your future projects

Ive made a few ccw holters and a western saddle but this is my first venture into western holsters.

Good work, Brays. You must have done your research.

The dvd from Mr. Burrows says it all.

Excellent work BBAYS, what more can I say, your first try was a big success

NICE...I'll waiting to see how you do when you get the hang of it

BBAYS:
Very nice work. You should be proud of these "first" western holsters.
Your previous experience shows in them.
I'm always glad to see new posters who appreciate the more historically correct styles, as they are my personal favorites.

BBAYS Those are very nice and welcome to the forum.

BBAYS · March 10, 2011, 09:05:27 PM

Thanks for the good replies.

BBrays those are pretty darn amazing, beautiful work pard.

Very nice job and some authentic designs too. Add a toe plug to the top one and it would be one of the closer 19th century Wyoming style holsters I see. Did you make the pattern? The Cheyenne holster is a very much copied design but few get it right, nice job on it.

BBAYS · March 11, 2011, 03:39:34 PM

Thanks. The top one is a Will Gormley pattern. The bottom one I made myself.

Those look really fine, Bbays. Very nice work. You do well with Western. Thanks for the pics.

Beautiful work. You surely understand "western".

Trailrider · March 22, 2011, 10:18:34 PM

VERY nice! Be careful, though... If you show these in public, somebody will ask you to make some for them at cost. Before you know it, you'll be in the business yourself! That is bad in two respects: It cuts into your shooting time, and it's more competition for me!
