Thanks for that tip. I tried it with my M69, and a single thickness slipped in with no resistance (but also no light showing), but two thicknesses wouldn't. Surprisingly, all of my other revolvers were slightly narrower: my 1st 360sc (scandium/titanium .357 snubby) gave a slight resistance to one thickness. My 2nd 360sc wouldn't accept it at all. My 3" .357 60-15Pro offered a very slight resistance, and my Charter Arms .38Sp snubby wouldn't accept it at all.
