I stopped by the 50 year anniversary of Back Country Horseman in Kalispell last weekend after work. I walked in to check out the trade show. There was leather worker/saddle maker there and he had a bunch of holsters for sale. One REALLY caught my eye. I continued to wander around and look at the other tables but I just couldn't get it out of my head. Had to go back an buy it. And I couldn't believe the price tag was only $100. Basket stamping matches my saddle/ gun belt, and most every piece of leather I own that has stamping on it. I bought it, brought it home and put my 5.5" Alan Harton custom .44 Special in it. I'll be darned if it didn't fit like it was made for that gun. Time to strap it on and head for the backcountry and put some honest wear on it. Perfect for riding and exploring in the back country!!

Interesting retention system, have never seen that loop and stud arrangement, looks like it would definitely keep your gun secure when riding, nice looking rig.

Wow that's a real beauty for a real reasonable price, congratulations. That's a fine shootin' iron too! I love that octagonal barrel. On of Mr Taffin's articles I have features a revolver with an octagon barrel. I love the look.
I'm interested in seeing a pic of the knife too if you get a chance. Very nice rig, thanks for sharing.

By all means Levergunner, I am happy to oblige. It's a great knife, field dressed a lot of deer with it!

A big fan of knife/handgun combo pics. Obviously, they go together and curious as to how others pair them, for everyday use, or adventures. The pics above show very capable choices, and classy too.

That's a lot like the holster I ordered, paid for and never got. Very similar, but not the exact design. I'd forgotten all about it till now. lol
