John D Holsters arrived!

John, YOUR HOLSTERS ARRIVED THIS MORNING fED Ex! Very nice examples of original shoulder holsters. Quite unusual and the first I have seen, genuine. I particularly like the 1936. Quality craftsmanship.

The 1935 needs a little help. I think you might be surprised when you get it back....I hope so!

Got to get to work...Thanks, Jerry

Hey Jerry!

AWWW RIGHT!! Please - take your time - as the "miracles" needed on the 1935 holster, I can imagine- sure won't be easy

As for the shoulder hosters - my thanks as well..!! I hope you enjoy them, and again, feel free to copy/pattern as you'd like. I'm just thrilled you have the chance to see them "in person", rather then only through my rather poor pictures posted some time ago... I would have sent the Kriegs that came along with them - but, well - you know... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />

Jerry - my thanks again..!!!! <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/beerchug.gif" />

Still waiting for the Kriegs, keep checking the mailbox...

Must have sent them to Ted instead

I sent them to Roadkill this month - as it's hunting season for him... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" /> And Frank is lined up after Thor... I'm limiting everyone to 5,000 rounds while the Kriegs are in their possession, however. I mean - I ain't stupid - I don't want my collection pieces being considered "shooters" now, would I???

Its NEVER my turn!

Always someone else's, well, I was going to send you a 1931 Krieghoff, that I came across in the Giant Nickle, but now I'm gonna toss it in the river!
