This is a mold for making and shaping holsters. This mold will make holsters for the Ruger Vaquero single action revolvers with 5 1/2" barrel. It will also work with other single actions of the same size and frame. The Vaquero is very similar to the Colt Single Action but has a slightly larger frame.
There are several advantages to using a holster mold over using the real thing - first off since this is solid cast resin polymer you can shape wet leather around it and it will not mark or discolor the leather, secondly you won't need to stick the pistol into the wet leather and possibly damage it, thirdly it's safer because you'll be handling something that has no possibility of ever having an accidental discharge and also it won't be necessary for your customer to leave his weapon with you for an extended period of time.
These
models also work well to display holsters where real weapons would be
inappropriate or unsafe. They could be used to illustrate how the
pistol would fit and ride in the holster.
The mold shown in the pictures conforms to all the rules and regulations of Federal, State, and local laws as a NON-GUN and even conforms to ebay's rules as such. It cannot and never could chamber or fire ammunition, blanks, or anything else, nor can it be altered to do so. The mold pictured is the same size as the 5 1/2" Ruger Vaquero .45 and is an off white in color with a red muzzle.
