The Washington State Patrol carried 6” Smith and Wessons in crossdraw holsters right up until they transitioned to autos. I think they were Model 28s, but can’t recall for certain. Back then, Trooper applicants were required to be over 6 feet tall. I recall reading that back in the 40s they carried 6 1/2 inch 44 HEs.
