Hi All,
I have had the pleasure of reading all the good things happy members have said about him and his work. I must say this man is TOPS. His work is on par with the best custom holster makers I have seen. He made me a p-08 /c-96 lanyard and repaired a LP-08 holster for me. It was just like Christmas as I unwrapped the plastic bags and saw the Hi-QUALITY of his work! I know what the holster looked like before and the tranformation it just SUPER! The lanyard is a dead center repro. of the real one I saw at a big show. The more I look at it the BETTER it is! Thanks Jerry If you need holster work done This is the man to do it. Be well & safe, broom

I couldn't agree more. Have had three holster repaired by Jerrry. Excellent work at very reasonable prices. Plus a very nice man to work with. If you havn't used his service try it! Bill

Thanks Gentlemen for the accolades. I do appreciate your kind words. I might also mention here the fine machining, tool and die work of my good Friend Frank (Broomhandle) We colaborated on a little project ( I talked Frank into it!) to make a machine to accurately fashion brass washers to attach the leather closure strap on Artillery stocks. This has always been a part that was hard to find.He made a magnificent die to do this and I now have the capability to make these washers just as the Germans did . They cannot be detected from originals. I applaud Frank for this great work! Thanks! Jerry Burney

HI Jerry,
I was glad to help you in some small way. I feel my tool is like a hollowed out log canoe to your atomic submarine! Hopefully I can get some other projects going soon. Damm, I miss having a complete machine shop to work in. But retirment is good. Be well, broom

Frank, We each have our specialties...I was impressed! I need to find time to do a little show and tell with it here on the Forum. I think a small few would be interested. Thanks again! Jerry Burney

I think your estimation of the level of interest is not on par with your handiwork Jerry.
I think you need to create a gallery album showing before and after photos of your most accomplished efforts. Perhaps you even need your own website Holsterrepair.com!I think limiting your efforts to just collectable luger holsters puts collectors of other "lesser" weapons at a tremendous disadvantage !

John, Thanks for your thoughts, I am almost never without a holster to repair or other projects to do such as Luger lanyards or double mag pouches.
I actually repair any holster pre 1945. I am too busy to take before and after photo's and post them. Word of mouth has always brought me as much business as a one man shop can do.... I just finished up a Baby Luger holster (my 5th) for Tom Armstrong. I would like to post photo's of it as it is a beautiful Army type hardshell. Thanks, Jerry Burney
