Default HH Heisers and Colt New Service

I purchased this for my father last year for Fathers Day and never posted any photos. It's a LGS find, I asked about the gun and struck a deal...he mentions the holster that comes with it afterwards, and out comes this Heiser! The holster is marked for a S&W 5.1/2" The NS locks up like a bank vault, is mechanically excellent, and all markings still crisp in spite of losing most bluing. It's hard to turn down a .45 Colt shooter and at $400 I thought I could spare it for my dad. He especially likes old western items and fell in love with the holster, as did I.

I think double loop holsters really look "old western". Nice outfit. Larry

Great stuff. The holster appears to be in excellent shape. Most I see of that vintage are full of cracks and splits.
