A little Alessi goodness

Here are a few pictures of my small but growing Alessi holster collection. The PCH arrived from Buffalo yesterday and is the first of about a dozen items that I have on order. The signed holster was sold to me by a kindhearted gentleman who knew how much I wanted it (and who has both a signed belt and PCH). The last pics are of two great company logos.

Enjoy!

That is so sharp. I am jealous. Almost got an Alessi, but the guy that was going to sell it decided to keep it at the last minute.

Nice leather. I am a fan of the snap ons - have one of UBG's Regulators and they share a lot of similarities. I was looking at some of Lou's work online yesterday and he made a really interesting small of the back style holster that I would of been interested in checking out.

Mine

Received 2 holsters from Lou last late January. I am sure he was trying hard to finish some of the orders. He did rush my order in 4 months. One or my HK USPC .45 and one for the HK P2000SK .40, both are fantastic. Where can I ever find another master like him. God bless Lou.

Very nice! I'd keep that CQC/S forever.

Do you say you got your order in 4 months?!?!?!?
I am WAY to easy going. I made this order 3 YEARS ago. Lou and I would email each other every so often and became quite friendly. I miss his emails. Thankfully the people at his shop are continuing to make holsters and they are working on my order.

Last Aug and Sep I ordered two CQC/S holsters from Lou. His estimate was 35 weeks. I suspect it will now be in excess of a year, but I am looking forward to getting them. I hope the quality has not slipped.
NYCMedic, How is the quality of the holsters you just received compared to past holsters from Lou?

I'll just wait and maybe someday the delivery truck will stop at my house.



Regards,
Jerry

Man, that's great looking stuff. It makes me somewhat sad because after seeing some pictures of an autographed holster on LTW last summer, possibly the same one, I emailed Lou and asked him if he would autograph the holsters I had on order with him when he got around to making them. He said he was flattered and would be glad to autograph them, but unfortunately he passed before he could get to my order. What a great guy!
