Pocket Holster for a Black Widow in Black & Red

Rick_Jorgenson · February-27-17 22:02

Black Widow Pocket Holster in Black Leather and Red Thread.

I just thought I would use a little "creative license" for the Hour Glass.

This one was an accident. I cut it out for Left Hand Carry (Snap facing outboard) by accident. The orders I had were all Rt Hand Black with Black Thread. I went ahead and did this one "a little different" lol!!

I have a spool of "Zombie Green" that just came in. I may need to wait until later in the week to do one of those. I need to catch up. ;-)

Thoughts? Critiques? I'm always looking to improve. Thanks for looking.

I like it.

Add the "hour glass" to the belt loop holsters made for the BW, or any other style you make.

Rick,
That looks super nice. I just purchased a BW a couple of weeks ago. I would like one like that holster.

Looking good! Still have to say I prefer the blue but am looking forward to the green.
Do you make holsters for other than Minis?

I think your holsters look nice, no matter what color thread you use.

RogueTS1 · February-28-17 15:02

Looks very good but I'm with CFS on this one; I like the blue thread much better.

OV-1D · February-28-17 16:02

Need more thread to really express it I think , kinda gets lost with the black overall . Maybe a double row , something .

The blue stands out in person much better than in the pics. A double row would look good, but with the small size, I'm not sure it would be feasible.

I may be able to get one done in the Zombie Green this week. You know I'll post it for reviews!

That did occur to me, that it could be added on others. Great input, I appreciate the feedback.

Thank you Top Dog. Send me a PM whenever you are ready for one. I try to keep them in stock but depending on sales it could be 7 to 10 days.

Hi cfsharry, The Blue really does jump out at you. I think the Green may do the same thing ;-)
I do make other holsters for EDC. I have about 250 dummy guns for most of the popular models. Every month I add 3 or 4 as I get requests. You can send me a PM with your favorite make & model and I can let you know if I have the dummy.

Thank you, the blue is really bright! I like it too, there are fans for each color it seems ;-)

OV, I think you are right. I usually do a second row that runs along the barrel and the barrel & cylinder. This one needs it.

When using bright colors "How Much is To Much?" lol!! There is a happy medium to its use. The blue really pops off of the black leather, the Red could use a second row along the gun. Thanks Luther!

Awesome Rick as Usual .

I been busy haven't been here much .

Red is tricky, In boat colors it is the fastest to fade, so you do need to be careful. Sails and covers fade like crazy and end up pink.

Very true, I have seen red fade on boat covers and seats. Red paint also fades on cars, and is much more difficult to color match because of it. Some of the urethane clear coats have UV protection and it is better. (I was in the auto body field years ago)
