Holster woes(PICS ADDED)

Well....
I had ordered a Todds deluxe s&w holster a month ago among other items(including one of his shirts) I just got off the phone and apparently Im getting a refund because they are now as of late discountinued. Im pretty bummed cause thats the main piece I was waiting on to complete my gear. I dont know why he would take an order for an item if he was going to sop making them. so now I dont know what Im gunna do.

welllll...i dont know anything about holster vendors, but you could always make one...out of posterboard...i found that its pretty good for a holster.
I've made one so far, and the other 3 out of coke can boxes, and one more out of newspapers (

)
anyways, i made one outta posterboard, and it's nice. you could try binding the side with electrical tape. I love that stuff!

Get in touch with Lee, his are about the same dollar amount at $80.00 plus S+H. I recently bought one and it's nice, it'll even hold a real 1917.
Best way is to call him though as he's really not into the computer scene I belive.

Do you know if he is still gonna offer the Standard holsters?

Indiana Williams · Post by **Indiana Williams** » Tue Jul 01, 2008 8:54 pm

If I end up getting the refund ill give Lee a call. I really hope that Todd honors the order though. but if not then Mr.Keppler will get my buisness.
Best Regards,
Joe

I asked him when they'd be in stock again and he said they'd probably have some around September if I recall correctly.

Todd's seems to be doing alot of refunding lately. I ordered a pair of Todd's gloves and 3 weeks later I was told that they didn't have any so they refunded my money. They are however sending me my $7.00 belt and still charging me $10.00 for the slowest shipping on earth. Oh well.

I ordered a distressed pair of his gloves, I wonder if Im going to get a refund on that too

I ordered a pair of distressed Wells lamont gloves from Todd as well as a couple of web belts, a bag strap and some Fullers earth.

The whole order showed up at my door in 6 days. This was about a month ago.

I am very happy with the quality of everything I purchased, especially the gloves. They look great.

I would buy from again.

Thanks

IR

PS- I emailed Todd about his standard holster and he said he should have it back in stock by August.

You can try here too...

The owner's name is Terry. From the couple of emails I've exchanged with him, he seems eager to help. Only $59 for the basic.

Todd got back to me and told me they ran out of the deluxe holster and they arent making them anymore cause of material/labor price increase. He also mentioned the standard should be back august/september. hopefully Ill get my other items next week or so. Thanks for the suggestions though fellas

I found a guy making EXACT reproduction Webley Mk VI holsters if anyone is interested.

Price is $35.00 if memory serves me... Maybe we can even negotiate a better price if we all order at once?

I will get one of these, as this is a well made actual holster, not a 'prop'. I am a shooter with a modest gun collection, and if I buy a holster, it better work!

Anyway, since I cannot check this from work (SPAM filter) please e-mail me directly at jim[dot]leach[at]sulzer[dot]com and I will give you the info.

And, please correct me if I found the incorrect holster!

Why not go with IMA.com? I just got my holster from them and I like it. Im dying it to more closely resemble LC.

So should i shoot Todd an email and ask him if Im getting my bag??

I ordered a Keppler holster, gun belt, and bag strap last weekend. I didn't want to bug him again; what was the wait time on your holster?

TheMechanic · Post by **TheMechanic** » Tue Jul 15, 2008 11:35 pm

What's with the massive avatars lately?

Anyway, I'm ordering a Keppler holster and gunbelt Friday. Can't wait to get those.

Three weeks and counting. I'll give it a couple more days, then give Lee a call. I haven't
called yet as I don't wanna bug the guy either - he's gotta be pretty busy. I might have
to inquire about one of those new Raiders fedoras when I talk to him - those things
are really good-lookin'! :junior:

OK. I have the holster information in-hand now...

It is from Pacific Canvas & Leather.

I ended up backing out of the keppler cause I had the oppertunity to get an AB holster from a member here. I wish I could afford to own both but times are tough. hopefully down the road I can give lee my buisness.

Joe
