anyone tried making their own? Looked at a few pictures and a couple threads online and figured it wouldn't bee too difficult.
dropped about 120 bucks on everything i needed to get the project going. Spent a few more bucks on some of the "hardware" for them...
first try was just a belt holster for the Walther (not my gun, even though i think the pink suits me)
didn't turn out too great, but it was good practice. Turns out it fits my stepdaughters bb gun perfect, and she was thrilled to have it lol
then i tried making a shoulder holster for my M&P... turns out i made it waaaaayy too small, and i couldn't fit the gun in... so in goes the Walther, again...
Then I gave IWB holsters a shot... These turned out pretty decent. Wore the one for my Ruger around all day today after i finished it. actually very comfortable. for the M&P i have a crossbreed that i have ordered, but i made one to fit the gun with my tac light on it.
Also made a carry pouch for my Speed Loaders for my shoulder rig (i didn't make the Galco holster in these pics lol)
And now I'm working on my shoulder holster for my M&P again... this one fits.
Just a side note. None of them are quite done. plan on doing some finishing work on the leather (dying and such)... Did most of the work today on the holsters. had the first holster and the mag pouch done a couple days ago, and started on the shoulder holster for the Walther yesterday, but everything else was today. I figure its a good investment considering the Speed loader holster from Galco is somewhere around 70 bucks, so i definitely and getting my money's worth. I still have about 8 square feet of leather, and only used about a 5"x14" piece of kydex (out of 4 square foot piece). I will surely be making some more holsters
