Hey,
Just back from the road and found a simply stunning piece of your work
on my desk. The ankle holster shows solid design notes and careful finishing
touches often neglected by most. The fit and craftsmanship are simply
without peer. Well done, all around. This is the kind of gear that makes
you smile just having it! I'm looking forward to giving it a good workout
in the real world.
Well done — and I can't thank you enough.

| Hi,
I am John Ralston, and
5 SHOT LEATHER, LLC. Every item that leaves the shop is hand crafted
by myself, and I take great pride in each and every piece. My goal
is to provide each customer with a piece of equipment that is a
great value and one that they can be proud to wear. I strive to
use the best materials available, so that a superior product can
be expected.
As you browse my web site,
you may see exactly what you are after, but if you don't, just ask.
I am more than happy to create a truly custom piece to your liking.
I owe a great deal to
one of the greatest names (if not THE greatest) in the business
- Lou Alessi. Lou has shared many, many tips, tricks and secrets
of the trade, and is responsible for the quality of the work that
I produce today. I could not have come this far without his help,
and I am very grateful for that. I have also been influenced by
the designs, craftsmanship and friendships of others in the business,
including Joshua Bulman and Matt Del Fatti. I aspire to someday
produce holsters that can be compared to the works of art that these
three gentlemen create.
Thank you for looking,
John Ralston

John,
The
web site looks great, and I wanted to thank you publicly for the
very kind words you had to say about me helping you.
What
little help I was able to give you wouldn't have mattered if you
didn't have the talent, the passion, and the drive to stick with
it, and improve your product with every holster you made.
I've
seen the transition from hobbyist to professional over the last
couple years, and it's been my pleasure, and honor to have had a
small hand in your development, but make no mistake, you did this
yourself.
I'm
proud to call you a friend, and I wish you all the success you deserve.
You have 'arrived' my friend.
Lou
