Juiceharp Jen Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 I'm a newbie who needs a couple of custom gunbelts for .38 rounds and 12 gauge shells. Any recommendations on custom leather workers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrel Cody Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Lots and lots of leather makers scattered around SASS. Ask around your local club first. I have rigs rigs from the following and they are all excellent, in no particular order: jm-leather http://jm-leather.com/ cochise http://www.cochiseleather.com/ red dog leather on eBay and/or Facebook( not posting a link to either place) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat Riot Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Depending on where you live there may be a local vendor that can help you to fit a nice gun belt rig. I bought a very nice rig once online from a well known maker that I liked very much but there were a couple of things I would have changed had I been able to work with them during the process. I used it for a while and gave it to a good friend. I liked it but I didn't love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juiceharp Jen Posted October 7, 2017 Author Share Posted October 7, 2017 I've used email or contact forms to message folks at the 3 linked websites. Hopefully, one of them has the bandwidth to get me what I need by the end of the month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Saint Eagle, SASS # 64903 Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 You might also try Mernickle, Kirkpatrick or Rod Kibler Randy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about Kirkpatrick or Rod. Rod's leather is really good. I have a couple of shotshell belts. Been using them for a very long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sedalia Dave Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Locally you can contact Danny Stinson at Maverick Custom Leather in Farmersville TX. (405) 589-1667. Several shooters you will meet in NE Texas are using his rigs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracker Jack Daniels,58780 Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Kirkpatrick is good leather, I have had their Silver King for about ten years now. It looks and works just as well now as when I first received it, and it only took them about ten days to get it out to me. Great people to deal with, and a great product.

Father Kit Cool Gun Garth Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Jen: Did not catch your initial post last Friday where you indicated you were a newbie, as it was posted in the SASS CLASSIFIED section. Hope it's not too late to welcome you to this great sport. This COWGIRL is WANTED for Cowboy Action Shooting (CAS) She has already shown an interest in the sport and should be considered as a candidate. It’s not known if she is ARMED; however, she has been seen inquiring about obtaining firearms, in particular single action revolvers, lever action rifles and shotguns. Proceed with CAUTION when providing her with only viable suggestions. Until she turns herself in to the local law (Match Director [MD], Territorial Governor [TG]) she should be considered DANGEROUS for asking many questions about CAS. If seen on the SASS WIRE, or SASS CLASSIFIED, be sure to extend a hardy WELCOME. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got my first one from Kirkpatrick Leather back in 2003.. I used it up until about 2012.. I have to say it held up very well.. I wanted different features it did not have.. I had enough shooting time under belt to then know what I wanted.. I then got one from Persimmon Dan.. Murphy's Custom Gun Leather.. I haven't regretted it once.. but.. He likes to take the time with YOU to personally have you try different belts, holsters, holster angles, holster positions.. etc.. Rance Thinkin' you've been supplied with many a good rig makers here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are out about 6 weeks now. At least for the LH Tequila rigs. I just got mine last week, and then noticed I forgot to add the matching shotgun belt. Reply back on that is also 6 weeks. I had to get some generic stuff from the Historical Emporium so I had a rig for my first three shoots, although I'll be using my new Tequila rig this weekend at Mima's monthly this weekend. Now if I could just get that shotshell belt... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juiceharp Jen Posted October 15, 2017 Author Share Posted October 15, 2017 Got two gun belts with holsters and shotgun slides from Johnny at J-M today. That was what, 8 days, if that? He had holsters already. He just needed to make matching belts in our sizes and matching slides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
