    So I've been doing a little diy stuff. I ended up buying a heavy duty sewing machine and got to work. Here are 2 mag pouches I made this week. I plan on do some other things but had a few guys at work request mag pouches. Anyone else do this?

    Nice work! Looks like you had to do a good bit of sewing etc(?)

    I sent you a PM about possible adding more material to an Alaskan guide shoulder holster to cover the 10" barrel of my BFR 30-30 revolver.
    Let me know if you can help.
    thanks,
    Patrick

    Yes it would be possible. Those holsters have a little padding correct? Would you want some on the extension?

    Nice stitching on that taco mag. pouch. Its hard to get the bar tacks looking that good with all the material the needle has to push through.
    I do tooled leather projects. Some projects are holsters and other gun related stuff. It might become a retirement business but no time now for it to be a side hustle with real job and family getting all my time.

    Thanks. I spent the money and got a good machine. I agree with not having enough time.

    I PMed my number to you if you have time to modify my holster for me.
    Looks like about 6" needs to be added and 7-7.5" to be added to be able to use it with my Encore 357 Max 15" barrel.

    thanks,
    Patrick
