Alright folks, since the Cheyenne may just be my favorite 19th Century holster design, how’s about we start a thread. If this has been done before (I’m sure it has) then let’s make a new one to add to. Show off your favorite Cheyenne rigs and feel free to share any stories you have about making them.
I’ll start with one I just finished. I enjoy giving each holster I make a back story. I’ve always had an overactive imagination, but sometimes it can make a fairly repetitive task more entertaining.
This holster, belt and gun combo I like to think comes from around 1919 and might’ve belonged to an old Line Rider in AZ. Former Rough Rider who kept his issued artillery model SAA. He’s about 65 years old and wears a rig that’s comfortable and familiar to him. A mix of Tom Rynning and Jeff Milton I suppose.
I know I’m probably a bit hokey, but it’s fun. Do any of y’all do the same with your projects?
Hope y’all are doing well and God bless!
