I had seen a picture of this holster on another forum and placed an order with Thad.
It arrived today and I'm very pleased with it and anxious to try it out.

That’s a nice simple holster, Thad’s work is one of my favorites for carrying my 4” 500L.

Nice Holster! With those regulated screws, I'm guessing Standard Mfg.

Yes, the gun pictured is a Standard. Below is a picture for you Colt aficionados. It was an interesting process to get this holster. I saw a picture of this holster on a forum where someone had commented that Thad was retiring. He only communicates by mail so I send him a letter asking about ordering one. His response was just the order form for the holster so I sent in the order form and a check. 4 weeks later the holster arrives.

I asked Isaac Gallagher about it last week as John got his holsters from Thad and he said "nope". But, what do I know....?

The photos of the back seem to indicate it is crossdraw? Or as reverse cant? I can't seem to visualize the hang of the holster.

I also thought it looked to have a muzzle forward cant........

In actual use, a straight drop or slight muzzle forward cant really is quicker and smoother out of the holster and on target.
