As several here know, I supplement my forced retirement income by crafting what I love-- holsters for classic and modern black powder handguns. I'm not able to just buy examples of our beloved percussion handguns from which I can pattern holsters to offer. Are there dimensionally accurate replicas I could maybe look for to use for patterning? Maybe some of the metal reproductions meant for display? With modern guns there are "blue guns" for just that purpose. But I've not found them for percussion and other period handguns.
I currently have these from which I craft patterns:
Ruger Old Army 7 1/2 inch with adjustable sights.
Ruger Old Army 7 1/2 inch fixed sights.
NAA Mini 1 5/8 inch "Companion" black powder revolver.
CVA Optima 2 single shot.
As always I sure appreciate folks help here. Don.
