Most common gun types I make holsters for:

1. Single action Colt (and clones) revolvers 4 3/4 - 8" barrels (base Cowboy on the Range Way design)
.38 - .357 - 45 - .44 calibers

2. Ruger Single Six type Single action .22 caliber revolvers 4 3/4" - 6" barrels

3. S&W K frame size double action revolvers 2"-6" barrels
.38 - .357 - .45 calibers

4. S&W J frame size double action revolvers 2"- 4" barrels
.22 - .38 - .357

5. Bersa Thunder - Walther PPK, Makarov size
.380 - 9mm caliber

6. Browning Hi Power - CZ 75 - Colt 1911 (and clones)
9mm - .45 acp

7. Ruger Bearcat .22 caliber 4"

8. S&W 5906, SD9, Glock 17, Ruger p40 and similar size automatics 9mm - .45 acp

9. S&W Governor/Taurus Judge 3" .45 long colt/.410 shotshell

----------------

The conchos if used are heavy more expensive screw back design (not the cheap little sheet metal type) which allows you to change conchos any time with just your pocket knife screwdriver! They are only attached to the loops, not through the interior of the holster.

Versatile fits means that often one holster can often accomodate a variety of popular guns, including single or double action revolvers and automatics too. Colt, Uberti, Cimarron, Taylor Arms, EMF, Browning, Smith & Wesson and Ruger just name drop a name or two. Calibers ranging from .45 -.357 - .38 - 9mm -.380 and .22's.

Each is custom handmade, not mass produced. I accept payment through Paypal, check or postal money orders.

Functional art. Gun holsters are a relatively new form of functonal art, originally made by saddlerers and tooled and decorated often with intricate floral or fanciful designs. If you are looking for a basic functional holster there are many excellent leather holster manufacturers to choose from and used holsters are always a good bargain. BUT if you are looking for something unique, each Old Gringo Holster design is NEVER duplicated so you can be assured that your holster is not like any other on the planet. Please do not request I duplicate any design seen here.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Up ahead at the sign post...”

They say you can never go back and maybe you shouldn’t. Thirty two years after he left his hometown, Jonathan Moran returns to visit his dying father and spends a long afternoon driving down “memory lane” only to find a portal to the past and maybe a date with destiny.

This is a story of a town the way it was and never will be again. And a tavern like thousands of others across America that shaped many a memory and many a life.

EXCLUSIVELY AT LULU PRESS

 

 

ROADSIDE 66

Following the premature death of his wife, 
Earl Garnett, a professional writer, decides to drive across America. Along the way, he discovers the country, as he never imagined it.

Soon, cryptic writings appear on his laptop, often coinciding with roadside memorials that lead him into the darker sides of the road. Ultimately, he must decide whether or not to follow the prompting of these haunting passages and accept the consequences.

Adam Barthold is a deeply flawed man haunted by the mysterious Arahm Tuit. He travels from upstate New York to the hills of Ash Fork, Arizona where he hopes to start a new life but instead finds love, danger and watches the world come tumbling down in red ruin, little knowing he has an important part to play in the future of human kind. Years later, the survivors are again threatened from the east across “the waters that never end” by a civilization that didn’t learn from the cause of the fall. Oneonta must pick up where Barthold, Tibbs and others left off in a life and death struggle. Above all, it is a story of failure, recovery, struggle, courage, sacrifice, profound love, inter-racial relationships and loss, laced with a tinge of mysticism and the unknown across the void of countless years.

Customer feedback:

John, I can not thank you enough for such a great design and great fitting holster. The revolver sits in the holster perfect, and the length of the belt loop is exactly what I was hoping for.

FYI... Even without the thong attached, the revolver feels very secure in the holster.... Nice job!

I'll be sure to spread the word of your design and workmanship
 
Thanks

Got the holster last night. All I can say is WOW! That thing is amazing. It fit the gun perfectly and I am super happy with it. I belong to a couple gun forums and posted a few pics last night, and it has gotten great response thus far. If you get a couple people contacting you, I would not be surprised. I also put some pics in this email in case you wanted to upload them to your site.
Thanks again for the awesome holster!

A NOTE ON CARE:
Leather ages with grace and character. If you need to rejuvenate the finish, the Old Gringo recommends Black Rock Leather conditioner or similar paste product like Fiebing's Snow paste or saddle soap. Neatsfoot compound is useful BUT should be applied sparingly and in all cases it will darken the leather. For a glossier finish, Fiebing's Tan Kote will work well.

The new Crazy Horse leather designs should be allowed to age in those meant to look aged already.
