That's a sweet little revolver.

Honestly, my skill isn't up to a level that would do your grandpap's gun justice. I usually only make things I need, which doesn't really allow the attainment of master level skills. I have made a holster, and I use it all the time, but it is not more than utilitarian.



In fact, when my commercial cell phone holster gave up the ghost last week, I decided to try this pancake style as a dress rehearsal for a holster I want to make...to work out the quirks.

I have some semi-large scrap pieces I use to make prototypes with (work out all the problems and mistakes first) when I'm starting a project I haven't tried before.

It's really not that hard to do, what you'll need tool wise depends on how pretty you want it to be. Double shoulder or back leather in a 7/8 oz is best, you can stud close it or sew it. If you have patience the tools you may already have on hand will let you finish a good looking holster, about $30 in certain leather tools will give you a great looking holster.

When I did my 1850s frock coat over a year ago I took it apart at least three times before it was mostly, kinda correct. It's partially apart again as I tweak it some more........
