1877 Colt Thunderer Holster
« on: May 13, 2021, 02:56:12 PM »
I recently got myself an original Colt 1877 made in 1883. Of course it needed a good holster to go in. I really like the Dodge City pattern from Will and decided to make one. It is fully lined in suede to help protect the nickel finish of this old gun.

By the way, the gun functions great but shoots pretty high.

Thanks. I am very pleased with the way it fits in there and the suede is nice and easy on the finish I’m sure. Went with a dark brown to try and compliment the dark brown plastic grip.

That's a very neat professional job you did there. It compliments the Pistol nicely.
