New "Fair Weather Christian" Rig

[Curley Cole]

I wanted a "special" rig for my scout setup. I had my pal Paul Combest (of RedDog Leather) do this rig. it is made for a pair of 1875 Remingtons. I wanted the belt to be without loops. I also had him make a double crossdraw setup (with an extra left handed strongside holster. He also did all the other parts including the knife sheath and pouch.

I have since changed out the buckle to one that has the wreath done in silver.

I long since had to give up on leather work due to my hands becoming more and more useless due to arthritis. I so admire the work you guys do here and envy the ability.

I also let Paul have freedom to choose the tolling of his choice. the tooling on these holsters are from a rig on the inside cover of Packin Iron.

Thanks for sharing all your great work here.

That's a beautiful rig, Curley. Paul did a great job. This is good enough that I split it into it's own thread for others to enjoy. Thanks for sharing it with us.
