The basic forming of the holster is done by wetting the holster and placing the gun in the holster. Then we utilize a 6-ton press to give us the basic form/lines of the gun in the holster. Then we utilize a couple of different tools to chase/follow those lines. We also get the leather to form more closely to the gun by basically molding the leather around the shape of the gun - kind of like making something out of clay. You push, smooth, press, around the contours of the gun.
