    That revolver gives me the ole Chris Matthews "Thrill up my leg".
    If I had just bought it, I would have had a holster from American Classic Gunleather or Purdey's ordered so fast it would have given my Credit Card whiplash.

    Sadly Purdey's mostly shut down their custom builds last year to semi-retire. I used to eyeball their stuff with greed.

    Alex at American Classic Gunleather could do a gorgeous flap holster for that thing.

    The serrations on the top strap and sight trough are a really cool and useful feature; whoever had that work done knew his or her business.

    Great gun, and if that has a well worn worn long action and some visible and effective sights, it should be a great shooter.
    And it is glorious, especially with the elk grips you put on it.

    My buddy texted me.

    This is the holster he has reserved for his new, old .38.




    What an amazing combo!
