It's aged, the grips are supposed to be beat up.

That will do nicely!

There's another one in there too, I'll have to look for it.

I thought it was pretty funny. Saved me a lot of typing. :p

I make my Walker/Dragoon holsters just like the rest. I also carry them just like the rest. I don't know why people make a big deal out of it. Use a wide, heavy gun belt and they carry just fine.

Butt forward, either cross draw or twist draw.

I can understand that. I got the fluted version a few months ago to have converted to cartridge but saved the fluted cylinder for future use.

Uberti does a really good job with their antique finish. I have several of them but they're all cartridge guns. Here's a Pietta I antiqued and I can tell you it's a lot easier to buy the factory aged gun.

Whether you get the Cimarron "original finish" or the Uberti "old west" finish, it's the same thing. You can easily strip the gun. That's the easy part but it's a lot of work to replicate their aged finish. Here's one with the factory antique finish for $489...

No, that one was done for a customer.

It's been a slow year for leatherwork, I've only finished one holster this year before now. Here's a Californian for the Walker.

Tranter. Had a guy that wanted me to make him a holster for one but it never materialized.

Good Lord, the things people get hung up on. Whining about Navy .44's not being period correct while you drive to the square range in your Honda??? I like my Navy .44's better than my Navy .36's. Big bore, octagon barrel, who wouldn't? Only sad that an egotistical, wannabe gunsmith ruined my...

You can't even do that any more. Now everything must ship 'from' an FFL.

I'm 49 but have no heirs. Not 100% sure what to do with them.

You're arguing against points I never made. Awfully defensive. Off topic anyway.
