I only own one Old Model - a BH FT .44Mag from 1961. comparing it to the OP's pics, it's obvious that the trigger has been moved (pivoted) forward a good 1/4 inch, maybe more. I surmise that Dick wanted an increased Length of Pull, and the plunger was relocated for some related reason. But I'm only guessing. I am guessing that Dick’s gun has a New Model steel XR3 gripframe, and they built a block for the plunger.....

Dick, fun and interesting post as usual. Sweet looking Ruger (almost sweet as the pie) and so much more fun to pack than a Block. Looks like it means business. If you know off the top of your head, I'm curious to know the bore size of the barrel you chose. Doc, great little Ruger too. Same question on bore size. Dick, please come back safe and sound from Salt Lake! I left the details to Matt. I can tell you it shoots bullets sized .452 wonderfully.

Hope you like it Dale! You’d have had it sooner except the PO was closed Saturday! You’ll find we’ve updated the Direct Line, expanding the color options (used to be just natural and saddle tan) and beltloop sizes on most of the gear. More to come! Are there barrel length options as short as 3 3/4” ? This would be on a 44spl New Vaquero. Yes, trying to get that barrel length added. You can make a note in the Special Instruction box during checkout regarding the barrel length until we get that one added.

direct line seems nice, but us leftys seem to be left out. Found 3 holster models that didn’t let you choose righty or lefty...fixed them! Thanks for pointing that out!

Bula and Mr. Bradshaw are correct. The beltloop slot cut allows you to position the holster directly over your pants loop which gives you greater flexibility in positioning the holster and anchors the holster in place greatly increasing stability on the belt.

Just looked at Barranti direct line on Doc’s web site. With your gun I would order a Hank Sloan made for a medium frame Ruger BH. One of the best rigs I own for carrying a SA revolver comfortably and securely on a pants belt. Several years later mine is as solid as when new. In my experience the Direct Line holsters get here quick. Dan Just received an email this evening from a customer (who had ordered a Longhorn Companion on Tuesday) letting me know he got his holster yesterday. We advertise Direct Line gear delivery within 4 weeks, though most gear ships inside a week.

Bianchi Lawman for 4 5/8” Ruger worked fine for my FT Bisley. I did have to stretch the strap to get over the Bisley frame though. Dan The Bisley hammer and larger triggerguard equal close to a 3/8” difference in the snap location but most straps will stretch that far, especially if you wet them.

***** For Doc Barranti, This is the most beautiful basket weave I’ve seen in ages. Your treatment around the tension screw electrifies. And the whole: a true aesthetic statement. David Bradshaw Thank you, Sir!
