If I started making leather gun holsters and put them on Nostr and etsy available for purchase in either Bitcoin, or fiat.
Would you all be interested in buying them if they were 75-125 USD?

If you incorporate some kydex to positively lock it in place, have adjustable cant, and has a wing, yes.
Actually this is a brand new innovative holster design that has never been created before. I have every day carried the prototype for 2 years now and has been refined. It has works flawlessly.
Better and more versatile than my kydex holsters. I never intended to mass produce it, because it was made just for me. However financial circumstances may motivate me to manufacture it. Here is a summary of the features without showing pictures, or giving away the secret sauce recipe just yet.
- Durable water buffalo leather
- 1 Holster that fits both full size, compact, and micro compact pistols for multiple makes and models. No need for multiple holsters anymore.
- Fits perfectly with both light, laser, and red dot attachments.
- Pocket carry design for v1.
Owb and iwb with L3 retention for v2. After I start field testing the new prototype for 6 months.
- Made in the USA.
Definitely sounds intriguing.
Again, though, I tend to operate with an "if it ain't broke, don't try to fix it," approach when it comes to my firearms and the various components of what and how I carry. My current setup has met my needs for close to a decade now.
I am not the kind of guy who collects a bunch of firearms because I have to have the latest one that is all the rage. I have exactly 2 pistols. A sub-compact for concealed carry and a full size for open carry. So I don't need a lot of versatility in my holster being able to accommodate a variety of different pistols of different sizes.
I could be convinced otherwise when I see something special that could add value compared to the way I currently carry. I'll keep my eye out for when you are ready to show it off. 😉
I'll be honest, probably not. Very happy with my SafariLand holster for opencarry and my StealthGearUSA holster for concealed carry.
Now, make a beautiful, open carry, leather holster that somehow incorporates kydex and a level 3 retention mechanism... That might get my attention. The price-point would likely be higher, but I would be tempted.
Yes, if it was what I was looking for.
