Andrews does make good things. One of his belts is my favorite weekender.

Your McDaniel II rig might look something like this one day:

I'd like to think that his voice is what Santa Claus would sound like if he was an actual person.

Thanks for posting this. I placed an order for one today.

Another very good car holster is the Ken Null Vampire.

The Carjacker holster by Andrews is one of the best going for its purpose for sure! I've been using one with a Detonics Combat Master for many years, anytime I found myself seated for long stretches in a vehicle. Even though that gun is small, it's still heavy and this holster really secures it in and tight.

That was great, thanks for posting. Love watching a master craftsman turn raw goods into fine finished works.

I had the thought that he could do some stellar voice acting.

If you are wondering why holsters are expensive, watch this video of Sam making this "simple" holster. Wow there are a LOT of steps, and we know labor is costly.

While I was watching I kept thinking, how does he do this and make any money?
Just the time involved plus the materials and equipment look like a hard way to make a buck.
I’m sure this has to be much more than a job for those reasons and he is an incredible craftsman.

Such a pleasure to watch such craftsman doing their thing. Would almost bet good money you could put a blindfold on him and he would still produce a quality product. ............................................... drill sgt.

Great videos!! I love seeing leather work it’s very interesting!

Thinking of getting one of these, but it looks like it would be covered by the seat belt when driving. If you have used one of these, please reply.

Thanks in advance,

At the 6 minute mark of this video you can see Andrews seated in a vehicle, wearing this holster and seatbelt. He has the seatbelt below the holster.

At 135 dollars it's a bargain, being a cabinet maker for 35 years I can really appreciate what he does and all the steps it takes to make a quality product.

Great to watch and listen to. He makes it look easy but it's a work of art.

Thanks, Para. I watched that video before but missed what you pointed out at the 6:00 minute mark. Thus my "dumb" question. Sorry, and thanks again.
