    Uberti 1862 holster

    Check with Alan at Wylie Leather in Laramie, WY. I can vouch for him on the basis of buying one of his holsters and following him on Facebook. He does excellent work, is fast, and his prices (in my opinion) are more than reasonable. Jayhawk

    Hi Art! I'm impressed by what you've done in making these blocks and antler powder measures. Very nice! Why did you make small groves in the pouring edges of the powder measures? Thanks in advance! Jayhawk

    popular lube?
