I have noticed that in the Spagetti Westerns, Cross Drw Holsters seem to dominate even with C&B revolvers. I have looked around suppliers like Cabelas and some smaller dealers and they DO carry Cross Draw Holsters but for the most part they are made for large Centerfire revolvers.
I bought a holster on line for my 5 1/2" '58 Remmie and it's a little too big for the frame! It fits my Vaquero perfectly but the Remmie slips down inside too far. You almost can;t notice but getting your finger placed on the trigger in a draw takes effort.
There is NO way a Colt Type frame would fit the Holster!
Is there anyone except for a custom maker who builds a cross-draw for the Colt Type frame?
Thanks
