  • Designed for S&W L Frame 4" revolvers, so fit is specific rather than universal.
  • The 1.75 inch belt slot means it is intended for belts in that size range.
  • Hi-ride carry and open muzzle design may not suit users who prefer a lower ride or a fully enclosed muzzle.
  • Strongside or cross draw carry is possible, but the belt loop design may require some adjustment to find the preferred setup.
