New Leather IWB (pictures)

[Adam500]

I just received my holster i ordered from Dave at little bear holsters out of Jacksonville Fl. Great guy to deal with and does outstanding work. It is made from cowhide and has a shark trim. This also has the kendex reinforced mouth. The turnaround time was only 1.5 weeks too!!! I would recommend him to anyone looking for a new Holster. I will be ordering more through him. He sent me several e-mails telling me what stage he was at on my holster and even sent me pictures of some of the process.

The pictures do not do this holster justice it is a work of art. The colors are all the same in person but with the bad lighting i was using it makes it seem as if there are lighter parts.

I wore it all day and it is nice a little tight but that is they way they should be. Just need to do the plastic bag trick tonight and should be fine.

Little Bear Custom Holsters - Welcome to Little Bear Custom Holsters. My name is Dave Galloway and I hope I can build you the holster you want. I understand what it is like to want a custom holster but it is either too expensive or the wait is VERY l

It's very nice looking and all, but it's backwards!

Seriously, very nice work. I bet that 1.5 week wait time doesn't last long.

You are mistaken the majority of the ones on here (RH) are backwards. The left handed ones are the correct ones

I think he will stop taking order if his wait gets much longer then that specified time. He does this is a hobby more then a business and he wants people to have a good holster that they can afford and have in a timely fashion.

I must add to Adam's comment:

It is a hobby quickly becoming a career due to forum's like these and word of mouth. LOL I am grateful for such because I enjoy what I do and I want to get better with each holster. (I know that was cliche' but it's true). I don't think I would ever stop building rigs, I would merely change some things in my life to meet those demands.

Thanks for the compliments and I am glad I built you something you can enjoy.

Oh, and if you find things you would like to see different in the rig, please let me know.

Cheers!

As a forum member for a year and a half now, I have watched the wait times for quality leather go from six weeks to six months. Somebody is always cheering when they get their holsters. And, yes, waiting for quality is worth it. But, good golly, when you think you've won the lottery because you got your leather in only sixteen weeks, something is wrong. My guess, Dave, is that as your reputation increases, we will all be bragging when we get a holster from you in under four months.

Aznav,

LOL... I guess I need to start training my assistant now?? LOL.

I tell you, when my order board went from 25 to 65 in about 20 days (april to may) I almost fell over. If it gets more than that, I may have to enlist my son on the dye table. LOL.

Cheers!!

Just ordered one for my new Bersa Thunder Plus!

That is one ugly holster,and I see it's a lefty it's too ugly for a kimber but it would dress up my SA1911-A1 so I guess I could take it off your hands if you ask me nice.LOL very nice holster for a very reasonable price and very quick delivery,good deal all the way around.Do you guys realise that before a lot of states allowed carrying CCW or OC handguns it doesn't seem like there was as much of a need for custom, holster makers but the business has really taken off in the last few years

[Adam500]

Thanks for the offer but i think i will keep my "ugly holster"
