    This gave me an entirely NEW appreciation for my custom TTK leather shoulder holster. It took about 6 months for it to arrive, from a far away country( middle East). As they never made one for a TTK. I was pleasantly surprised in the product I received. As I know it came from the hands of a creator like yourself.
    I was a machinist for 20 years. So I appreciate other trade crafts that take "working" the material. The satisfaction of creating handmade things, is unparalleled.
    I appreciate your mind, sir!

    Amazing work on the shoulder holster. I will make one of those next. I just hobby around with leather. Made 3 Alligator pancake holsters for my 3 9mm Taurus in the last 3 months. Nothing fancy, but black alligator sure looks good. I made a custom knife sheath once for $60. The guy sent me a hand drawn outline of the knife. Turned out to be a WW2 Raider Dagger world famous since there were only 15000 made from Camillus knives. He sent me $75 for the sheath instead. 😀 A few years later, I found one of these Knifes for $2000 and bought it. I made a new sheath for it and still have it hanging on my wall.

    Do have a video with double holsters or a modular set up
    Primary on your strong draw side ( Me it would be on the right cause I am left handed never know how to word it) and say be able to change the non dominate side with say a smaller firearm that can switch out with a knife or even just mags

    • @bransonsgeneralstore
      @bransonsgeneralstore  2 года назад

      I don't have a video of that style of shoulder rig yet. I usually make them with magazine pouches on the off hand side. There are a few ways to make them modular. You can use screw posts instead of stitches to attach the holster or pouches to the shoulder straps. On the off hand piece you can put slots in it that will accept spring belt clips, and just make your accessories with clips.

    Where can I find the stencil pattern dimensions? Mostly the upper and lower shoulder loop halves? Awesome video thank you. I have a Dan Wesson w/ a 10" barrel that is brutal to carry on the hip and looking online for a shoulder rig that size is near impossible. I do have a Brauer Brothers side holster for it that I would love to incorporate into a vertical shoulder side carry.

      This pattern started as the one in Al Stohlman's how to make holsters book. I have changed a few things about it. The book is decades old but I think Tandy leather still carries it. I have also made a video about how I make patterns like this, ruclips.net/video/WN4IBQmzZV0/видео.html

    • @bransonsgeneralstore
      @bransonsgeneralstore  Год назад

      $100-$125 depending on the features of the holster. A simple vertical holster is easier to make than something with a thumb break strap. It mostly has to do with the amount of time involved.

    • @bransonsgeneralstore
      @bransonsgeneralstore  3 года назад

      I usually just cut a rectangle piece of leather and cut off the corners. About 3 inches wide and 2 and 1/2 inches tall. You can also just rivet the straps to a round piece of leather. The straps will swivel if they are just riveted, but they will be much less likely to pull out if the strap goes through a slot in the leather and then gets riveted.

    I like this a lot. I think I'd like the version that would hold a couple extra magazines tho...more symmetrical. The only bad part is, i know you're really good at this and make it look easier than it really is. Just curious, how long did it take you to make this rig?

    • @bransonsgeneralstore
      @bransonsgeneralstore  3 года назад

      I am notoriously bad at keeping track of time while working. The shoulder straps are just a couple of hours. The holster I would say 3-4 hours including making the pattern. I have a sewing machine so that saves a lot of time. Add a couple of hours for hand stitching. Some one who is new to leather work will take quite a bit longer. So for me about 5 hours. For someone learning as they go I would guess at least 12 -16 hours.

    • @nateand3
      @nateand3 3 года назад

      Lol i must be particularly slow then because I think I have 12 hours tied up in a sheath. So i imagine it would end up taking me at least 24. I was really just mostly curious. I know you have all the tools, knowledge and experience to make it way quicker than I could possibly manage

      I used to teach classes at a leather craft store I worked at a few years ago. That time estimate was based on how long those classes take.

    • @nateand3
      @nateand3 3 года назад +1

      Your ability to teach definitely shines through in your videos. The things that you point out and even giving the reasons why. I've really naver had the ability to teach stuff. Even things I may be really good at. I can answer most questions asked, but the mindset to know to verbalize it without being asked. Never had that. And maybe that comes from your experience as a teacher, but it just seems natural
