What happened to R.D Warren Leather?

#1

Post by Jusme »

Maybe I missed an announcement on here, but RD Warren leather, no longer has a web site that I can find. I am looking to buy a new gun soon, and wanted to look at his holsters, and mag holders, but the only link I can find is on Facebook, and the last post was in January.

Does anyone know if he is still in business, and if so, is he listed under a different name?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks,
I’ll try those and see if he is still making holsters.
Planning on buying a gun that I would be proud to show off in one of his holsters.
I’ll post more info if everything comes together as I hope.

I sent him a message on Facebook and he responded that he is still taking orders. He took down his website because it was generating too much business!

Glad to hear he is still going strong. He does fantastic work, for a fair price. I am quite fond of my RD Warren 1911 holster.

That's great. I have bought one from him, and consider it my "dress" holster and mag carrier. :cool:

Same here. I rarely open carry, but when I do, it's with my RD Warren.

Last time I did so was on the first day of the 'mask mandate' issued by our Harris county judge Dora the Explorer. Although the gov had already invalidated her order by the time I did it, I felt I had to keep true to my promise and wear my official mask outfit. So I put on my cowboy hat, boots, jeans, tucked-in shirt, bandana around my face, and my 1911 in my RD Warren with two mags in my RD Warren mag holder on my weak side.

Walked into my local Kroger (2 minute walk from my house) looking like an out-of-shape bandito from a spaghetti western, and the lady working the self-checkout machines looked at me and said, "I've been waiting for you to come in dressed like that! You promised you would! Needless to say, now everyone at the self-checkout counters was alerted, and I got several 'atta-boy' comments that day while buying veggies for dinner.

Yeah he replied to my email.
I’ll be getting together with him when I’m closer to buying my new gun

Reviving this old thread...

I still swear by RD Warren's work, so I reached out to him so I could order a new holster for my new EDC.
I hope he's still in business, and if so, I'll let y'all know what he comes up with for my daily use!
