That said, I do have a 6" 1952 vintage Pre-27 that would probably be the last gun to go...as it lettered to the day I was born... Gun was shipped to the George Lawrence Company, the holster maker... A few years later I found a long out of production Lawrence 120 Keith holster for it brand new in the package... So what are the chances of finding a gun shipped on the day you were born and then a holster from the company it was shipped to designed by your favorite gun write....stars were all aligned just right... And I actually like shooting the 6" more than the three 5" 27s I had...
