    For a long time now, tdogg has been calling me old, in part, because I remain partial to old wheel guns.

    It has really bothered me. I thought he might be right and figured it was time to join modern times and buy one of those striker fire guns he is always talking about. Ending up finding three of them.

    Having a little trouble finding kydex holster though?

    You need Heiser, Brauer Brothers, and Lawrence holster for those, Brauer Brothers was Teddy Roosevelt's favorite.

    Like that?

    Yes, that's post 1928 700 series model, probably from their Colorado Saddlery facility. The small snap makes it a post 1928 and the carving makes it a 700 series. I can't see any marking on the snap so it probably a Colorado saddlery.

    I've driven by the Godfather in Louisville several times. We go down every August for the Street Rod Nationals. Always heard about Trixie's.

    My Dad and uncle's talk about the "Red Garter?" that used to be in Indy.

    Hypatia Lee used to work there, she would be considered a "vintage" porn star today. Mouse might remember the Red Garter as well.

    Ebay is a good place to start, there is also a guy on GB who has a pile of very high quality gun leather, lunker1999. Another thing to look for are stamps from the store that sold it, like VLand A, BH Dyas, and my favorite Scaramuzzo and sons.smith rig.jpg
