Tight holsters

Steve Richards · 11-14-2002, 01:54 AM

The two holsters that I have are both reproductions that are supposedly made from old patterns. One is from CMR and is definately better. But they both have the same thing that is not really a problem. Would it have hurt to use about an extra 1/16 inch of leather? I had to soak both holsters before a gun would go in and the flap close. Wrapping the gun in plastic and reinforcing with tape around the barrel alowed the guns to go into a water soaked holster which then dried but why are they made this tight?
