Not a complete fan of the basket weave on the holster portion it's self, but overall it is seriously sexy. I told you I want one for winter wear. I love he coloring, love the style, and just gimme the holster portion without basket weave and I'll be sensing you more cash. Very nice John.

would it be ok, if it had basket we every where else, like it is, just with out the weave on the holster if so, this one would be ready to rol, fairly quickly?

Nice looking rig John. Do you use Chicago screws to adjust it?

I was throwing the idea of replacing the area with basket weave, with snake skin.
Suppose to be getting a copperhead skin, that would look pretty darn nice.

Yeah, the basketweave is great for accents, just soon the entire holster body is overwhelming.... Makes me think amish. The accents on the straps go properly and work great with the colors. Body of the holster needs something, not sure what, the basket just does not suit it.

Never seen snake skin, so can't comment on how it'd work, but id probably say no based on the assumption it would be more delicate and would get ruined (I am guessing). I could see striping, or..... Actually, shark skin or elephant would be nice in tis instance..... Money though.

The holster part, is it molded or just gun shaped?
