Great post, brings back some fond memories, and a few not so fond...However those older police models need to be preserved if for no other reason history of and memories of those who wore those for most of their careers,,,Thank to all the Bucheimer Clark cross draw was my first issued holster...It fit both a model 10 S&W and a Colt Trooper....Even in the 60's the cross draw was being relegated to the used holster bin...Was pretty handy under a old fashioned below the but coat....They did have break away snaps....Darn I'm getting old.
