Here is a belt and a holster I just finished up (not for the same customer).

The belt matches the holster set at the bottom, which is one of the first that I made. Sorry for the crappy photo - I had only a few minutes to take the pics before shipping it out.

I love two tone holsters. Is that stingray on the belt? It looks great.

Thanks for the compliment.

The belt and the holster set are trimmed with Stingray.

WOW, the last holster either has some serious cant to it or I am not used to seeing left hand leather.

Very nice stuff 5 shot, I have been wanting to order from you for a while, with my next gun I will head you way for some leather.

It does have a great deal of cant - the customer specified the angle, as he felt it was moe concealable for him.

I have a stingray rig that Mark Garrity made for me. It's beautiful and looks to be about level IIIA in toughness, but I understand it's a real bi#$% to work with. Mark, is that why I got the physical therapy bill added to the holster bill? :wink:

I recently received my 5 Shot order. It was outstanding. The attention to detail and the leather quality were first rate. I already have my next order planned. I can't say enough, so I'll leave it at that.

That is a great looking holster! Do you make them for the HK P7M8?

Thanks Steve -

I am looking into a lighting tent so that I can start working on better pics.

They won't live up to the Bailey reputation, but they will certainly look better!
