Finished Project: Old Ruger in Old Lawrence

Took a while, but I finally put together a rig like I had when I was 17 back in the day.

Nice to finally have the project finished!

1968 Single Six, 4 5/8" in a vintage Lawrence rig, belt and holster.

Leather shrinks,,,

I know it does,,,
Every dang belt I have ever bought or made has shrunk on me.

It's just the nature of the material.
