Leather holster work?convert crossdraw to sidehip

[cvarcher]

Hello, I have 2 cross draw leather holsters (from Dave Newcomb)with nice lacing and rattlesnake skin inlay .But I want to change the belt loop to regular side hip hang.So its basically taking the stiched belt loop and rivet off and resetting it 90degrees clockwise to ride the belt so the gun hangs straight down on the right hip. Trouble is there is a shearling pile liner and the rivets and stiching may be into that liner .Is there someone that can do this change for me? Of course I will pay for it.thanks.-

It will be cheaper and easier to build a new holster. But by all means, ask the maker of those first.

David Newcomb is very ill and very old .I found out after I asked his partner if he could do the change. I will give Karla a try--thankyou!!!
