Holster for No. 3 Schofield.
« on: November 30, 2007, 05:16:03 PM »
I know the forum is about the revolvers but I have a leather question.  I am not your typical single action shooter. I bought a No. 3 Schofield copy in .45 Colt to slow me down in a steel shoot my club puts on and let others win.  The gun will use the #25 HKS speed loaders so I can keep up with the guys shooting the autos.  But here is my question.
Does anyone make a leather hip holster for this gun?  All the cowboy holsters I have tried so far ride too high on the frame and unlatch the barrel when I draw.  The draw looks like Barney Fife with the barrel slowly falling and the shell ejector raising the cartridges out of the chambers.  I need all 6 rounds for the shoot and can not set the hammer down on an empty chamber.
Right now I am using a holster for a S&W model 29 with a thumb break but it just doesn't look right.

He has made specialty holsters for me. He will do anything you want him to do, and he ain't satisfied until YOU are satisfied. The price is right, too.
