Being partial to Bianchi's long out of production OWB spring-retention CD1xx cross-draw break-front holsters, I've wondered about Bianchi's strong-side break-front duty holsters.

Their first iteration appears to have been the Model 27. In all honesty it is not aesthetically pleasing. Their next (final??) version appears to have been the Model 2800. It is more conventional looking and might function differently.

Anyone who has owned, used, or carefully examined these holsters, as best you can, please describe how they function in use. Also what are their mechanical differences, including how they rest on duty belt and how high they ride?
