Don't have any experience with Birgade Gun Leather, but that is some good looking stuff.    :)

I have no experience with them either and it appears it may be a while before anyone can.
  They have suspended taking new orders because of there backlog.

I do have experience with Eugene Oppe @ RnR Gun Leather

http://www.rnrgunleather.com/

He made this one for my Kimber Ultra. It was under $200 and is some fine workmanship.

He is saying 2 to 3 week turnaround time, Eugene is very easy to work with.

I've come up with what works for me.  I just say, getting a new gun (or holster) today, dear; she says, that's nice.

 Yesterday my wife pulled into the driveway and asked me to get a box out of the trunk of her Lexus. It was so big I was surprised it was in the trunk.  It was an unmarked white box. I took it inside the house for her , put it on a table, and then left without a word.  Now I think it is driving her crazy that I have not asked what was in the box (Which is still Factory sealed.) She could not fathom not asking if I were the one with the box. Of course she also does not understand why guys like the "silent treatment"   ;D

Chief:

You're a better man than I am. I would have gotten up in the middle of the night, opened the box so as to leave no trace, identified the contents, and then resealed it to await developments.     ;)

I think the Chief has the toy acquistion program all figured out.

If he doesn't, it's just a matter of time!    :D

He probably has a X-ray machine hidden in the garage allowing him to view the contents without disturbing the packaging.

 Well, found out what it was, (3) Lamps for the living room. My wife is in the "I am tired of this furniture theme, I need to change it" mode. Now with my wife, this can get exciting  ;D, she never seems to get it right at first so I save all receipts and get on a first name basis with the "Return desk" people. So far have returned
one rather large persian rug, (2) Paintings, and (1) mirror.
 And the adventure continues......

 But I have learned to just let her go, as much as she complains about it, I know she enjoys it. And it allows me to purchase things without too much argument, like more guns, and the 55" 3D LED/LCD Flat screen I watched the Superbowl on !     (I just do not tell her how much my stuff costs :)  ....  She actually complains I do not buy enough for myself.

 Every year I let her pick where she would like to go for vacation. I put no limits on her.  Drives her crazy deciding where to go. Once she picks location she arranges everything. (All I have to do is pay) She is all over the map, one year is Ireland, Next Sedona, after that Smokie Mountains. Again, I hear lots of complaints about how hard it is, but I would not take it away from her.
