Three Generations of my holsters

[Hvymax]

I started making holsters when I was 12-13. So through my teens mid 70's early 80's I was in my Buckskinner, cowboy phase with Western Floral. Mid 80's early 90's Early Carry phase. Combo OWB/Shoulder Carry. Going for a more Sophisticated look Oak Leaves and Camo for my Hunting, IHMSA, IDPA, IPSC revolver. Now to Gen3. I wanted something entirely different. I spent weeks going through patterns before I found Western Gothic online. It has everything!!! Western Floral and skulls!!! More OWB/Shoulder Holsters and Pocket Holsters I decided to go with camo again for my Enhanced Service Pistols. I wonder what I will think of next???

Gen 1 I converted a billfold for my original Concealed Carry/Snake gun. I made the 1858 Remington Holster in the 70's.

Gen 2 Miami Classic carry or OWB. I wanted something I could wear with a suit or at least decently dressed comfortably. Compact P11, Service Early Tanfoglio CZ75, Beast Dan Wesson with 4-10" barrels and occasionally a scope.

Gen 3 EDC Carry. Shoulder/OWB for my Enhanced Service Pistols and Monster Derringer. Cargo/Pocket Carry for my Enhanced Compact and Micro Compact with extra mag on the holster. For Pocket Carry this helps break up the GUN outline in my pocket.

And still have this one and sees occsassional use:



But I've decided to leave holster making to the experts.

I can't imagine why you would ever pay anyone else.

My latest design. My go to piggyback mag hybrid OWB/Shoulder Rig with an original design for the Palmetto Dagger it's made for.

 

[Hvymax]

Finished it. The minute I saw it after the finish dried I realized I should have put the Dagger behind the Palmetto Tree!!! Now it's Dagger Palmetto instead of Palmetto Dagger!!!
