This Night Cobra in an NOS Hume crossdraw rig. Colt will shoot the lights out and it is comfortable to wear in this old Crossdraw. Love the Basketweave. Don Hume was a police officer who went to work making holsters to feed his family, he was good at it. Bare with me, experiencing technical difficulties with IMGUR.

Love that grip too. Can just imagine the confidence in feeling that in your palm. Almost all my leather is don hume. Some had many hard miles on before I got them and still good as the day they were made.

Very nice! A snub nose looks best in a classic cross draw holster, in my eyes. Enjoy!!

Early in police firearms training I was taught to secure a good grip on the weapon before it ever cleared the holster, then a smooth presentation to the target. This Vz grip gives you a rock solid grip upon initial grasp. In all honesty don't recommend this grip for magnums, for soft, dainty hands like mine. VZ makes other textures for the hard kickers. 20 some odd ounces of full bore 357 158 grainers I consider a hard kicker. Bigger revolvers push and roll, the small ones "slam" into the hand. Shot five 158 grain 357s out of a Smith 340 once! 20 years ago, the memory remains vivid. 26-28 oz 357s are as light as I go.

Old and new, quite a vision, but then, you are Ezekiel. That grip looks like it will force you to get it right at first touch, no little slip to adjust to a firing hold, just pull and bang.

Don Hume has always made great stuff and they are just up the road from me here in Oklahoma.

TinStar: The name has changed? Correct? I've worn a lot of their police gear and several pieces of concealment gear, quality stuff.
