I lucked into this Colt 45 Bisley for a song at a local auction. It didn't take long to decide I needed to make a holster for it. I thought it turned out pretty good.

No joke...I also found this Remington Navy Cartridge Conversion there. No finish left, but locks up like a bank vault. Sadly, 38 Rimfire is hard to come by around these parts.

I own a Smith and Wesson 66 357 mag but the rest are all Savage pistols.

My other affliction is Smith & Wesson revolvers. I have three .22's, two .32 S&W Long, two .32 WCF, three .38 S&W's, eight .38 Specials, a .357, three .44 Specials, and a .45. It has been easier to find Smiths than Savages, but I would rather find Savages.

I am very partial to this A.D. Swenson built Colt 38 Super. This is a very accurate pistol.

I have a few Colt SAA's. I had a pair of Bisley's in 32-20 but let a persuasive friend talk me out of them. Those Bisleys fit my hand real well. I don't pay attention to persuasive friends when it comes to selling them guns any more. David

Greg Make that holster reverse intentionally? I have a Bisley in 32-20 with a very early holster made on the same pattern as yours. Would like to have a 1892 Winchester 32-20 to go with it. Nice work on the leather. GW

I have several that were my grandfathers: a pair of Ruger Single-Six revolvers. One in .22 and one in 32 H&R Magnum. Also have his Ruger Blackhawk that was re-chambered from .41 Magnum to .44 S&W Special.
My favorite is his Army issue 1911 A Remington Rand. Growing up he would never let me touch it because he kept it loaded in his bedroom. I used to sneak it out when I thought he wasn't looking. He was!
We have a few modern plastic semi-auto's too. S&W, Glock and Ruger.

I am partial to the 1911's, mostly vintage and military models, US and Foreign. Do have some other vintage military pistols. Modern Colt Defender in .45acp for carry gun.
..some .22's for squirrel/small game hunting (Buckmark Varmint), and Couple Ruger .44mag's for deer (Ruger Super Redhawk & Ruger Super Blackhawk Hunter).
Still wanting an Anschutz Exemplar, and a T/C Contender.
Oh, and more and more....and more...

Got quite a few, here are a few Remington's (and all rimfire!) Left to right - 32 short rimfire 5 shot, 30 long rimfire, 32 short rimfire, 41 short rimfire and 32 extra short rimfire 5 shot (some of these cartridges are harder to find than 38 Rimfire). Here a couple of them are again along with an 1891 Target in 22 LONG (not Long Rifle). The 22 Vest Pocket is a French copy of the Remington and has a extractor which the 22 caliber Remington lacked.
