Been working on this rig for a fella with an 8" & 10" Ruger .44. I started it last March or April, but had a couple illnesses, dog maulings, cold weather, wet weather, and finally a mold infestation that ran me out of my shop. Every time I wet a piece of leather, it would be spotted with mold the next day. Plus, I knew it was going to put forth a mighty battle, and, it did.
