Considerations & Trade-offs

  • Designed for K-Frame sized revolvers with barrels up to 6 inches, so it is not a universal holster for all revolver sizes or barrel lengths.
  • Fit is specified for K and L frame revolvers and similar frames, so compatibility should be checked carefully before purchase.
  • The leather construction is intended for comfortable, reliable all-day carrying, but it is still a traditional belt holster and may require a break-in period typical of leather gear.
