Below are the holsters I have made for my carry rigs. I made these myself and would like some opinions about the quality. All of these except the natural PT145 holster(10oz) is made from 8 oz leather. And all of them are have a running saddle stitch. The straps are removable on the PT145 holsters so different sixe straps could be created.
I have been carry the 1911 holster for about a year with no issues and you can see the wear marks on the holster. I just finished my PT145 holster (brown) last night.
I am pretty proud of the 1911 and the brown PT145. The prototype holster for the PT145 was my first attempt with the PT145 so it was made with thicker leather than it should have been.
I am curious how these compare to other holsters that you may have already.
kimber 4" 1911 natural leather, white stitching and waterproofed
PT145 brown stained leather, brown stitching and waterproofed
PT145 natural leather, white stitching
Both holsters worn
If anyone would like the prototype holster I made for the PT145, let me know. I would like some one to critique my craftsmanship. Althought this holster is a little thicker than it should be.
Please feel free to leave any comments.
