Very happy with the look and the quality of this hat !!

The gun belt/ holster that I purchased is impressive looking, but the leather pieces were like they were built of two mind sets. The main pieces are heavy and look to have a purpose. Yet the belt that fastens the gun belt and holster are too thin to look as if they will last very long. Despite carefully following the measurement steps, the gun belt is too long. I would send it back; but I do like the two tone brown with the 6 inch barrel length holster that it is not available in the 40 inch. I had ordered the 42 inch thinking it would be a perfect fit. Therefore, I have taken it to a saddle shop to have the thin straps replaced and relocated to effectively shorten the rig. I am also replacing the buckle with a heavier, and slightly fancier one. As far as the fit to an actual Colt 45, the pistol will easily fall into place with no sticking at any point. It fits a little deeper into the holster than I thought it would, but as I am not planning on shooting a hole in my leg doing quick draws, I would say the fit is good.

Always precisely as advertised. Thanks folks!

All is well that ends well.

My order was delivered in days before the estimated delivery. Thanks!

I have ordered everything online but my failure to properly measure my head earlier in 2023 I was in a jam to get the exchange handled. I overnighted the return and they had the size I needed (again sizing was my mistake) and had the replacement hat to me in time for the event. I have recommended Historical Emporium to many people when they ask where do I get the items in my wardrobe. I thank then for great products and wonderful customer service
