So I've been thinking about getting a new holster for a while, and I decided that rather than spend $30+, I'd try my hand at making another holster. The last time I did this, I used the faux rubber-backed leather from an old golf bag. The problem: the narrow bag limited my pattern, making the holster two pieces instead of one. This time around, I decided to take a trip to the ol' trusty thrift store (my favorite "vendor"). While there, I picked up an old leather suitcase which provided a much broader chunk of material to work with. Using my 70's suitcase and the holster pattern from the main Indygear site, I came up with this. I appreciate any feedback!

If you're wondering, the metal flap stud thingy came from an ebay holster that came with my gunbelt.
