We're going to try something different here. This forum is for cowboy or CAS related leather but occasionally something is made that's a cross-over item that pards want to share. Maybe it's a modern design with cowboy elements in it or a cowboy item with modern touches. Let's post that kind of thing here. Threads that get started that should be here will get moved by the moderators. This thread is on a trial basis. Let's see how it works out.

Thanks,

Marshal Will

Here is a Holster I just finished for a friend.
This is the second holster that I have sold ,I have made a couple of dozen for myself over the years but I probably made more than
hundred knife sheaths.

Hey, Wadd, I used to have one just like it! Wish I still did. Question, when you fire it with .45 ACP, do you get that weird almost whistle sound? It always reminded me of the spaghetti western sound effects.

WaddWatsonEllis · « **Reply #6 on:** July 02, 2012, 10:19:08 AM »

Drayton,

No whistles, but the flames coming sideways out of the cylinder always scares anyone shooting next to me ... *S*

I have just started an experiment with the Wobbly and ammo ... I have bought 50 Auto-Rim .45 casings and am going to load them fairly conservatively to keep the cylinder (and my fingers) in one piece ... I am going to load some of the casings this weekend and will let you know how it went ...

TTFN,

WW, you may want to try the Cowboy 45 Special brass as an option if the auto rims don't work out for you.

I got them Marshall and they work great. I have a 160grn bullet and 2.5grn BA10 powder, gives a recoil like a 22

And when I shooting the holy smoke I dont need any filler.

Marshal Will Wingam · « **Reply #9 on:** July 03, 2012, 09:33:09 AM »

I think they'd be perfect for BP, Henrik. I tried them with 165 gr bullets and a full load of Trail Boss. They were OK but I need to work up a better load than that.

WaddWatsonEllis · « **Reply #10 on:** July 03, 2012, 11:38:46 AM »

Marshall.

The main reason I went with the .45 Auto Rim is so that it visually was different than the .45 Schofields that I shoot ... 'cause once the rounds are fired in the .455, they end up stretching a bit (in diameter) so that they have to be resized to shoot in any .45 ... I shoot slow enough without the jams that would occur in my Uberti '73 Winchester (if I loaded it with the Webley ammo after it had been shot in that pistol. The rifle is set for .45 LC and will just barely accept the OAL of a Schofield).

'And', as Mr Harvey used to say,' that is the rest of the story'.

Marshal Will Wingam · « **Reply #11 on:** July 04, 2012, 12:48:19 AM »

Cool, WW. Sounds like a plan.

Freedom · « **Reply #12 on:** July 04, 2012, 01:09:43 AM »

Thanks Marshalll....here is a couple shots of me with the Chest Holster that I designed.

The pic was taken on our ranch in Montana and the gun is a 4" S&W model 500. The rig is the 7X Leather Chest Rig.

Ten Wolves Fiveshooter · « **Reply #13 on:** July 04, 2012, 04:11:13 AM »

Nice pictures Freedom, and a very nice design, a great way to carry a mountain gun all day long, thanks for sharing pard, and good to have you back.

Carved and stamped on 14 0unce leather. Still have to put a boarder and backing on it. Used paints and dyes on it. KT
