In this video I am showing how I make one type of leather concealed carry shoulder holster. Someone I have made a holster for in the past contacted me and wanted a shoulder holster like this because he mostly only carries when he is driving and he cannot easily get to a holster on his waist when he is in a vehicle. This is a style of shoulder holster I have made several variations of. It can be just for a handgun like this one, or with just a few changes you can include a magazine pouch as a counterweight. This particular holster was made to fit a small Browning .380 that looks like a little 1911.

I am always working on building something and try to average a RU-vid video once a week. Most often leather work, but I have also posted videos on black smithing, knife making, casting, and even how I make soap.
