Thank you sir and I appreciate the welcome.  Anytime I see a forum about or involving lefties I want to participate.  I have always had a hard time finding equipment that fits me.  For example, left handed holsters and such.  Frustrating at times but what the heck, just gotta deal with it and roll on!!!

The Dove;

Or is just Dove acceptable?  I haven't had too much trouble obtaining holsters.  Well, I should also say; "Other than paying for them".

In fact in about a week I should be able to pick up my latest aquisition.  That will be a cross-draw for a large-frame revolver on a 2.5" belt.  I found that if I put the gun in my normal LH holster, it interferred with a rifle slung on the left shoulder, therefore the cross-draw to reside on the right hip.

For commercial leather, I can heartily recomment either Milt Sparks Leather, or Idaho Leather Company, both in the Boise Idaho area.  I've been carrying my H&K in a Milt Sparks Exec's companion IWB for over 10 years, original holster.  It's comfortable and long lasting.  My Blackhawk has been in the Idaho Leather rig for over 30 years & showing no great wear.

However, the latest is going to be a custom holster from a local Great Falls Montana maker, Norm Schertenleib.  If possible, I'll attempt to post pictures of the rig after I get it.

900F,

Do you have some contact information on Milt Sparks Leather, or Idaho Leather?  I have a couple of pistols and one revolver that deserve better than what I have them in.

OK hunter;

Milt Spark's website is:  www.miltsparks.com.  Their gear is incredibly popular.  So much so that they are now operating on a monthly quota system.  The reason they do this is because Tony refuses to rush, hire less than master craftsmen, or do anything else that will lower the quality of the product. 

Idaho Leather Company is located at:  18 South Orchard in Boise Idaho, 83705.  The telephone number is:  (208)344-2602.  I've spoken to them in the last year or two, they're still in business as far as I know.  I couldn't find a website on a quick search though.

I can't do anything right handed. People in work always complain about my mouse when they need to use my computer.
