A true master

Mike B · 02-19-2016, 03:42 PM

I want to take this opportunity to thank Jerry Burney and at the same time tell the forum members that we have a true master of his trade. We are very fortunate to have such a diversity of experts on our forum to assist us in just about every aspect of our hobby. Besides Jerry and his leather, we have Hugh for grip repair, GT for magazine repair, Ted for restoration, Tom for Luger parts and on and on. If I missed someone, my apologies.
I purchase this beautiful holster on eBay sometime back. I tried to put my Hi Standard Sentinel .22 revolver in it, but the strap was a bit too short. I sent it to Jerry and in less that a week it came back with a replaced strap; looks exactly like the original but just a tad bit longer. I was amazed; thanks Jerry.

I wonder for which gun was it designed originally?

That holster has no makers name or such. I have no idea what it was intended for but the Sentinel fits fine after the master did his thing.
