Need help with a repro artillery holster

You could also taper the bottom of the board to fit into the boot. That way your rig could be set up like an original rig that looks more or less correct from the front and the "T" shaped board is hidden behind the holster.
An easier method would be to buy a repro board stock and simply remove the attaching iron. I don't think anybody could claim it was intended as a stock if there is no way to attach it to a pistol.

Thanks for that Mate. Great idea.
All the best.
