Here is my Colt's Agent with a professional hammer bob job by a local
Smith. He also removed the notch from the hammer where it locks on
to the sear, thus rendering it totally DAO. I agree with Protocall, when
you need your gun you need it quick. You don't need a hammer snagging
on the draw. I also prefer open top holsters for a little quicker draw.
You don't need to waste a split second deciding DA or SA. Save a split
second here and there and it all adds up.
The Agent is in the photo at left.
2nd from left is a favorite KD's gator trimmed pancake.
3rd from left another favorite Baker pancake.
You may have noticed that the Baker pancake is made for a
3" barrel, but my Agent is a 2" barrel. Red Nichols put a positive
spin on that for me. With so much weight in the cylinder above
the belt, the gun would have a tendency to tip out. That extra
inch helps reduce that tipping.
BTW those gorgeous grips are extended boots by Craig Spegel.
