Ok this isn't exactly a cast bullet question, but maybe somebody could help me anyway. My grandaddy recently gave me his M1911A1, and I was in the building sizing some bullets tonight and ran across his issue shoulder holster that he brought home when he was discharged from the Air Force in 1953. It's been hanging in the building on a nail since long before I was born, so it is a little cracked and dry, to say the least. It isn't torn though, just stiff as a board. I'd really like to soften it up some so that I can use it to a limited extent, for sentimental reasons, but I'm not interested in cleaning it. So I was wondering what y'alls ideas would be for the best way to accomplish this? Any and all information is appreciated,
Thanks folks
