Rossi 461 IDPA legal holsters?

braindead0 · May 13, 2002, 03:56 PM

I'm thinking about getting a Rossi 461 for shooting wheelgun class. Probably a lot of people don't like Rossi (I've heard it all from junk to good)... My reasoning is I want a short 6-shot and everybody else makes all their snubbies in 5-shot.

Does anybody know off hand of IDPA legal holsters for this gun? Thanks.

Some of the kydex makers will custom make a holster for you but they need your gun to form the holster.

Most of the local clubs let you shoot with anything that is a carry type holster. Maybe some of the local leather holster makers could make you a copy of an approved holster. A guy in Marietta OH made a lot of the holsters that are used at Fort Harmar. What frame size is your gun? Maybe a holster for a K or L frame Smith will work.

haven't bought anything yet.. I'm considering several options, just trying to make sure that I can get a decent holster. OTOH, my wife and I don't really have any intentions of serious IDPA competition, and I know the guys in Youngstown aren't big sticklers on the rules for the non-award club events.

You will also need speedloaders and holders.
