BOWEN HAS A LARGE CALIBER, 5 SHOT, CONVERSION ON REDHAWKS THAT INVOLVES A LONGER CYLINDER, AND MAYBE A SLIGHTLY WIDER CYLINDER, AND A L FRAME STYLE FULL UNDERLUG HEAVY BARREL. DO THESE REVOLVERS FIT IN N FRAME AND REDHAWK HOLSTERS? WHAT HOLSTERS WORK WITH THEM?

THE BOWEN REDHAWK 500L ON GB IS NOT A BOWEN L FRAME STYLE BARREL, ITS LOOKS TO BE A DAN WESSON SHROUD.

Rey, will an Anaconda holster not work??? Trapr I HAVE THOUGHT OF THAT BUT DO NOT KNOW. ANOTHER CANDIDATE MAY BE HOLSTERS FOR THE RAGING BULLS. WAS HOPING SOMEONE ON SINGLEACTIONS MIGHT HAVE SOME EXPERIENCE IN HOLSTERING A BOWEN L FRAME STYLE BARRELED BIG CYLINDERED REDHAWK. |

One for an N-frame classic should work.

Depending on the pattern, probably just need a little extra room for the underlug.

FOR YEARS NOW I HAVE BEEN A HOLSTER "PICKER". MOSTLY OFF OF EBAY, SOME OFF OF GB AND SOME FROM OTHER SOURCES. I COULD ATTEND A LOT OF BBQ's AND NEVER WEAR THE SAME FANCY HOLSTER TWICE. I HAVE SOME HEISERS, SOME MYRES, SOME EPS, MISECELLANEOUS OTHERS, AND A BUNCH OF LAWRENCE HOLSTERS. SO WHEN I GOT A BOWEN 5 SHOT "L-FRAME" REDHAWK CALIBER CONVERSION TO 45 COLT, WITH A 4.125" BARREL (MY "BEAST" REVOLVER) I TRIED A BUNCH OF REDHAWK AND N-FRAME HOLSTERS AND REPORT AS FOLLOWS: 1) A MYRES JOCK STRAP HOLSTER THAT WORKS GREAT WITH A 5 INCH MODEL 25 WAS A NO-GO, BARREL ISSUES; 2) A 4 HUNTER HOLSTER THAT I USE WITH A 625 MOUNTAIN GUN ALSO A NO-GO, CYLINDER TOO WIDE; 3) AN EPS AUSTIN HOLSTER FOR 4" N-FRAMES ALSO A NO-GO (BARREL ISSUES); 4) AN EPS AUSTIN HOLSTER FOR A 5.5" REDHAWK, THE BEAST GOES IN BUT IT IS SO TIGHT AS NOT TO BE PRACTICAL; 5) AN EPS TANKER HOLSTER FOR A 5.5" REDHAWK, A NO-GO, BARREL ISSUES; 6) A LAWARENCE 120 M 6 1/2, VERY GOOD FIT BUT LONGER THAN NEEDED; 7) A LAWRENCE 34SH 533 5" VERY GOOD FIT BUT THE NARROWER BELT LOOP WILL NOT ACCOMODATE MOST OF MY HOLSTER BELTS, AND IT IS A "PLAIN JANE" HOLSTER; and 8) A CUSTOM MADE HOLSTER FOR A 5.5" REDHAWK, VERY GOOD FIT AND NOT TOO LONG.
I WILL BE ON THE LOOKOUT FOR A FANCY LAWRENCE 120 FOR A 5 INCH N-FRAME.
WHILE I RE-FIGURE OUT HOW TO POST PICTURES, dougader HAS OFFERED TO POST SOME PICS FOR ME. I WILL SEND HIM PICTURES OF THE BEAST IN 7) & 8) AND HOPEFULLY HE CAN GET THEM POSTED FOR ME.
