Not a lot to talk about. We’ve got a brand-new year, and probably the weirdest one I’ve seen in this lifetime. The fear-factor we’ve all come to know and love is in full blossom. Thanks to folks like Steve Jobs and that Microsoft guy (Bill Gates) we have a million ways to spew terror and garbage that we didn’t have twenty or so years ago. The media can’t keep up, though they do their best. Anybody with a smartphone is now a reporter, analyst, photographer, and newscaster. Veracity be damned. Accuracy and reality are mere nuisances. If you’re a network of any sort or have a decent number of YouTube subscribers, then you can be sponsored/supported by a myriad of pharmaceutical companies.

Obesity, diabetes, stress, can’t sleep, can’t poop, issues with feelings, aging, skin issues, hair greying, aches, pains, emotions, depression, sugar, fat, cholesterol, fleas, ticks …we have drugs or vaccines for all of that and more. Invariably, once you’ve taken the drugs and vaccines, you’ll need a lawyer, or team of lawyers, to represent you and seek reparations for the side effects which range from cancer to bleeding from the ass.

It’s Monday. I needed a post for the blog here, and I didn’t really have anything to talk about. Clearly, I still don’t.

From what’s left of America …

GIBSON BLACK CHERRY BASKET 1911 RH OWB

1911 Holster Light Brown Alpha.

Gibson leather 1911 holster Light Brown Alpha basket stamped RH OWB belt slide pancake

Merry Christmas! I know I’m about 20-days early, and it’s not politically correct to put it that way these days, but I just got back from the annual Christmas tree pilgrimage to Jackson County, and we found us a good one. It wasn’t nearly the adventure one might envision. After 35-miles or so on the highway, the tree harvesting goal was accomplished in the parking lot of Lowe’s in Marianna, Florida. No crawling around in the dirt/mud/snow. Of course, this is Florida, so we don’t have dirt, mud or snow. Sand …we have sand.

I’ve got an experimental holster in stock. The color is called “Light Brown A.” I know–it looks more brownish-red, with emphasis on the red. Personally, I like it, but it’s a little different. It’s a right-hander, with white stitching, hand stamped with a rope basket stamp and Barry King half-flower border. The back panel is not dyed which eliminates any chance of dye bleed. It has a sealed top coat, hand-beveled, dyed, waxed and burnished edges and belt slots. The belt slots are for a 1.5″ wide, dual-layer (1/4″ thick) gun belt. Rake/cant angle is 15-degrees. Back panel is detail molded for retention.

If you want it, it’s ready to go. You can find it on our other website at this link GIBSON LIGHT BROWN ALPHA $149.00, Regular $169.00. *No Christmas delivery guarantee or promise.*
