Here it tiz..... The idea was a belt pouch that mimicked a tool pouch or meter case.
It completely conceals the Mod 36 S&W in the pocket style leather holster inside. There is enough retention in that holster so the Smith is snug.
The holster is secured with 3 screws to hold it in the upright position. No rattling or movement and at the ready.
John took my verbal description & sketch and turned it in to this exact example of what I was envisioning....
Not only that, but he did a earlier prototype fitted to a K frame he owns and sent it to me , we critique it, improved & adjusted it to smaller size for this final product for my J frame.
The finish is Skidmore's and he even sent me sample tub of the leather cream....
John is a super guy....this is not the first time he's shown me great kindness, some years ago he shared 4 hides of some really cool
pebble grain Leather, from Motorcycle shop that had closed.. He gifted the 4 hides to me...I've used it for holsters
