In 2022 I released my new Lone Star Holster pattern pack for hobby and professional holster makers. Countless prototypes were engineered until the patterns were just right. This #6 Lone Star holster is a final version appearing on the pattern pack cover (bottom row, second from left) holding a Colt M1909 with a 5 1/2" barrel. Holster is engineered to ride on a 1 1/2" pant belt at a FBI angle and fit Colt New Service Frames including the M1909, M1917, and S&W M1917 with 5 1/2" barrels. This #6 Lone Star Holster has a dual-release safety strap. Historically, safety straps from this era were snapped on the front of the holster as seen here. This slowed down the draw in an emergency. I've retained the historical look of the holster, but added a second thumb-break release behind the weapon for quicker access to the weapon. This way you get the vintage look of the safety strap with the quick release of the thumb-break. The snap base is encased in the strap to save wear on the weapon's finish. The Lone Star is styled after holsters made popular by manufacturers in Texas like A.W. Brill, S.D. Myer, and others. Pant belts were coming into fashion to hold up gentlemen's trousers rather than relying on suspenders. Gone were the frontier days when a man needed a whole cartridge belt full of bullets to fight off Comanche, bandits, and rustlers. Texans began thinking of themselves as "cosmopolitan" and only course rubes went about with a hog-leg on his hip. But even gentlemen didn't go unarmed. This new style of holster concealed even large weapons high on the pant belt hidden under a gentleman's coat. And even in Texas, most disagreements could be resolved with 4-6 bullets. This #6 Holster for 5 1/2" barrels is from the Lone Star Pattern Pack cover and is available for $255 plus shipping/insurance. Price: $255.00 Buy Now Contact Seller |
