Note the exposed trigger guard and the extremely flared "fish lip" holster top combine to insure a very positive "draw" and and equally positive reholstering move!

Yes!, We can build one for you with the individual customizing that you need!!

"Tom" likes black, but obviously we can do what YOU want.  Other stamping patterns are do-able along with degree of tilt, amount of drop, and the option of a crossdraw.  All holsters are sized and shaped for YOUR own guns.  And yes, they are affordable.

Plain $ 475

Matching belt pouch $50 tooled. $45 plain.

   One of the most consistent, top-ranked, and widely respected Cowboy Action shooters in the United States, "Ol' Short Tom", has guided the design and construction of this unique and innovative competition rig from it's inception.  We are very pleased with the results of this effort and you will be, too.  Those of you who know "Tom" and his significant other, "Two Sons", surely appreciate the dedication that it takes to reach the level of competition that they have achieved.  Their continuing efforts came to fruition at EOT 2006 with each of them winning their respective categories joining the elite 2006 "World Champions" of CAS. 

   AT EOT 2008,  Two Sons defended her 2006 and 2007 titles by repeating as 2008 World Champion Lady Senior.  Congratulations to her for her tremendous feat.  Ol' Short Tom again put out a great effort and finished well up in the Top Ten in his category in the midst of some very tough competition.  Congratulations Tom!!  Our hats are off to both you and Two Sons.                             

   This custom built rig was conceived by "Tom" by defining very specific features in the holster.  The way the sixgun is presented by the holster to the shooter is the result of careful construction design to include a well exposed trigger guard (for quick and secure weakside transfer), the exact amount of drop, and also important,  the proper amount of gunbutt outward tilt combined with the correct grip forward axis line.

   The outward tilt was acheived by our exclusive "rigid triangulation" technique eliminating the need for clumsy and unsightly "metal" plates.  The full grain leather linings add to the rigidity and promise of durability of this rig.  These holsters are surely the most effective, rigid, and strongest made today with-out the addition of metal reinforcing. No metal allows us to shape the holster to better fit the gun.  This helps retain the gun when moving quickly in a stage.  This rig shown is the one that "Tom" is using now.  Look for him and "Two Sons" at the major shoots in the midwest and EOT 2008.      1 (812) 963 6828

Note the angulation of the gunbutt and the deep front cut so the gun can be securely drawn--And  reholstered safely!!!  Tom's personal holsters are further customized with foam padding to insure all-day comfort with a real "stay put" advantage.
