Avenger Style Holster Acrylic Template for 1911 & Full-Size Single Stack Pistols
Create custom leather holsters with confidence using this Avenger Style Holster Acrylic Template from Pastor Bob Leatherworks. Designed and made in Southwest Missouri, this reusable acrylic template helps leatherworkers produce clean, professional-looking holsters while saving time and improving consistency.
PLEASE NOTE: This listing is for the acrylic template only. Photos of completed holsters are shown for example purposes only and are not included with your purchase.
Eliminate Paper Patterns for Good
Paper patterns work for a while. However, they eventually tear, fold, wrinkle, and wear out. As a result, they become difficult to trace and can lead to inconsistent cuts.
Instead, use a durable acrylic template that stays flat and holds its shape. Because of that, you can trace accurate pattern lines and build better holsters every time.
Even better, you can use this template again and again. Therefore, it becomes a valuable tool for any leatherworker who wants consistent results.
Classic Avenger Style Holster Design
This template creates a traditional Avenger-style leather holster. For years, leatherworkers have favored this design because it combines comfort, durability, and a clean professional appearance.
In addition, the Avenger design provides strong belt support while helping keep the firearm close to the body. As a result, it works well for range use, everyday carry projects, and custom leather builds.
Whether you are creating your first holster or adding another design to your product lineup, this template provides an excellent starting point.
Features Include
- Classic Avenger-style holster design
- Strong belt support
- Comfortable carry position
- Easy-to-build layout
- Professional appearance
- Ideal for plain or tooled leather projects
Durable Acrylic Construction
Each template set includes two precision laser-cut pieces made from durable 1/8-inch acrylic.
Main Holster Pattern
Use the larger template piece to trace and cut the main body of the holster.
Belt Loop Pattern
Use the smaller template piece to create the belt loop and reinforcement components.
Together, these pieces help simplify the layout process while improving accuracy and consistency.
Add Your Own Style
One of the best things about leatherworking is creating something truly unique. Therefore, this template provides plenty of room for tooling and customization.
You can create a simple everyday holster. On the other hand, you can build a fully customized showpiece.
Popular customization options include:
- Basket weave stamping
- Floral carving
- Sheridan-style tooling
- Border stamping
- Decorative stitching
- Initials and names
- Custom dye work
- Antique finishes
- Exotic leather overlays
The large cutout section marks the tooling area. As a result, you can easily lay out your design and maintain clean boundaries while carving and stamping.
