Matt Del Fatti Holsters
« on: February 18, 2006, 07:39:47 PM »
Here are front and back photos of 2 Matt Del Fatti holsters that arrived today. The first is his BPB model that fits between your pants and belt.
The second is his ISP-C, which is an inside the waistband holster made of natural horsehide. The clip arrangement, which the belt runs through, allows for tuckable carry.

 Both holsters display the style, materials and workmanship that are hallmark's of Matt's work. I also got a few of his very, very well made belts. Now, to keep the waistline from expanding.

Enjoy. Dick

I have this pocket holster for my Seecamp from Mr. Del Fatti, but I am awaiting an ISP for my R9.

Matt certainly makes extremely nice holsters.
Speedmasters are great watches. My favorite chronographs.

I was forunate to be able to pick up two of Matt's holsters in our classified sections from Sawbones on the forum who had to move away from his R9.  I PM Matt after receiving them to let him know, that even though I did not purchase from him directly, I was very pleased.  Matt is a fine individual.


Pocket holster with rough side out that works very well in not printing the gun, and stays in the pocket when the R9 is drawn.





A behind the belt with belt mag holder.  This one is made for left side carry but I find it works fine.  Also works in middle of back for right hand if desired.








Other side of the pocket along with the behind the belt.

Wow - yet another example of super fine leathercraft.  Lovely rigs.

As I say so often, we are so spoiled with all the high quality holster makers we have at our disposal.

Dave, are you now practicing left hand draws with Matt's holster?

I started to request a holster from Matt, but needed one quicker.

I know there is a reason for the wait.  You can tell by looking at the holsters.

When you see a very long line snaked around the corner from a popular restaurant, you know something very special is inside.

I would love to have one of Matt's holsters. However, I have enough trouble waiting on the guns without waiting on leather too. Just not enough patience. Maybe one of days a belt holster.
Right now I use a back pocket holster from RJ and a front pocket holster from Milt Sparks.

Heh, heh, I just picked up an "extra" ISP-C (like the one above) that Matt had in the shop.   ;D
