Gold Member Kivalo Posted February 21, 2022 Gold Member Share Posted February 21, 2022 there used to be a gun thread. It would be cool to see some of the builds people are doing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post SHADOSPRIT Posted February 21, 2022 Author Popular Post Share Posted February 21, 2022 (edited) My Dad does custom leather work. I watch a lot of westerns and always wanted a cowboy rig! This started out as a kinda yellowish/tan piece of flat leather. Everything you see (except buckle) was hand sewn, dyed, cut and formed. All the design work on it is done with little tools and a hammer. Hand painted and covered in a protective cover. I own Ruger Vaquero that I used to fast draw. My dad is aging fast and is unable to do this much anymore. Something I will always cherish. Thanks dad...

Doomxz600 Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 I was looking for a P229 as they can take the .357 sig barrel as a drop in if its in .40 and happened to score one Saturday with both barrels. One gun shop later the wife finds a P239 in .40 like with box and papers and hers was like new. Guess I will have to add dies for .40 and .357sig 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHADOSPRIT Posted February 21, 2022 Author Share Posted February 21, 2022 (edited) Well we will start off nice and easy, I like to show my dad's leather work off. Lost art here! For Browning fans, look close you will see the logo. Again all hand formed, sewn, dyed...This is my Browning Challenger II. Gun is in great condition, fun and cheap to shoot....Enjoy, just a tease, more to come..... Quick story behind the holster, I live in Ohio dad in Florida, so most designs are done over the phone or via email. This one was kind of a surprise from him. I gave him the basic idea I was looking for and let him work it from there. I got the call, holster is on the way, few days later package at my house....Dad called that night said well how do ya like it? Told him dad I love it but it's worthless to me! He said what!!! Said dad you have known me my whole life....Uhhh I'm left handed you made it right!!! He felt so bad, week later my lefty showed up and I love it!!! So many comments on it when I'm out.....
