Hoping to get a Slim Jim right

Been years since I tried to make a holster, but have a new Uberti 1851 Colt London Model just dying to hang off my belt.
I usually make a pattern from manila folder stock. Just hope I get the belt loop dimensions right so that it hangs properly and doesn't crawl up on the draw.
Wish me luck fellers.

Smile. It makes people wonder what you're up to.

If I have any questions on fit of a holster design, I make one out of a manilla folder first or even belly leather that won't get used for anything else. The design proven, I then make one from good leather.

Yes sir if you are unsure use a belly to see how it fits. You can take it back apart and still use parts of that leather for small scrap pieces. Everything has a use.
