    I love how this Video makes you feel so calm and all.
    I also love how he made the Holster. Its incredible how beautiful the end product was!
    I recently made my own Holster from an old Leather Jacket that i had laying around but wore because it was way to big.
    Due to the recent skyrocketing in Demand for Self Defense goods, its incredibly hard to get a good Holster in Germany these days, so i had to improvise. It works fine and feels better than Mexican Carry (which i did before) but its not even close to the beauty of this piece.
    I wish i could make Holsters like that...

    I'm a wildlife artist... and as an artist who focuses on the fine details of color, shape and texture when I do a drawing series and then finally the painting... watching you during the process was great fun. I know I have to have one of your chest rigs for an EAA Witness Polymer 9mm (shape very close to the CZ 75).

    I have 3 of his holsters for Sig Sauer P229. Springfield XDM, and Glock 19. I use them a lot and they have held up very well. Great quality,workmanship and style, I will be buying one for my Sig Sauer P329 soon.

    I really like your chest holster design great for military applications,driving hunting man all around nice design.
    I have made a lot of the M3 of ww2 shoulder holsters.
    I like your design because when you draw your pistol the holster stays put.
    Thumbs up!

    Is that like "Fort Clark" (Bracketville, TX)?
    Sir, excellent leather work. It had been a very long time since I had seen a "walker" sewing machine in action. Not like nowdays that leather craftsmanship uses those 3-, 4-prong forks. Also, I liked your method of covering all the leather with dye/paint. It costs much more, from your end, the first time you use it, but a more professional job all-around. Sir, thank you very much for your produced video ... very educational, and indeed informative.

    • @SRHeartbreaker
      @SRHeartbreaker  8 років тому

      We use a product called "Montana Pitch Blend" to condition and seal the leather. It's a mixture of mink oil, pine pitch, and beeswax. Works great to restore moisture to the leather and water proof it at the same time. It can be applied in several coats to give it a thick wax coating, or as few as two coats as we do on our holsters. It takes quite a bit of time to apply correctly, as it should be worked in by hand to allow warming of the surface.

      +archangel20031 You're absolutely right - this is our chest holster, but we do make a shoulder holster using the same holster, just with a different harness.
