Old school / New school

Waited a long time for brown. G.I. Hip holster to be back in stock. Holster was made well, just like the old days. My leather experience helped me fit the holster. Soaked it in warm water until it got soft. Put my pistol in the holster wrapped in Saran Wrap and let it dry about 2 days. Then oiled the holster with leather oil like a baseball glove inside and out. Let it sit with pistol in it from 24 hours. Pulled the pistol in and out of the holster about 20 times to loosen it up. The flap holster is a great holster if your an outdoorsman.

1911 GI Holster

This is real deal here. No flimsy LV leather here. It is stiff (giggidy) right out of the box but forms nicely to your pistol
