LC holster template/pattern

Post by ltfoley »

Hey guys! I'm slowly putting together a new Indy costume and it'll be LC. I'm also new to leather making but have enough experience to make a holster and belt.
Anyone has a pattern for the LC holster ? I have a Denix Webley.
I know there's a pattern for the ROTLA holster around the web but it's much smaller.
Thanks guys!

You might want to try just making the Raiders S&W holster longer. I can manage to get my Denix into my Raiders holster, but it fits much better in the one it is made for. Look at some photos from TOD and LC and you will see the holster is an inch or two longer to accommodate the barrel. Also, check out a website called The RPF. You may find what you want there.

Quick ebay search showed a number of LC style holsters for under $20. Several are cloth so if you are set on making your own out of leather, you could buy a cloth model and unstitch it to use as a pattern.

If it's not too late, I can take some pics, beside a ruler, for my homemade pattern.

The outcome looks like this:
