buckskinner,thats some nice work for a first try.I would be proud to sport my smoke wagon in that holster.Keep up the good work.Murphy

For the kind and encouraging words, boys! I cut leather for the next project last night, a slim jim type this time w/ a bit of border stamping, hope for good results again.........stay tuned for pics..........

Second try, I chickened out on the toe plug ( really wanted to, no self confidence... ) but it did come out slim and trim. Started next one already, Christmas gift for a lady shooter friend o' mine, then maybe before the spring..........slim jim for my 3rd model Dragoon, wid'a toe plug and ..........lined........?

Here's how I been wearin' that first rig, wid a Cabela's Hickock holster cross - draw, and a standard cap pouch..........

Howdy buckskinner,
Keep it up. Your work looks good. I would be proud to wear that rig.
