KARMA FOR SOUTHPAWS
I have a couple of left handed holsters that are excess to my
needs.
The first one, on the left, is by Tex Shoemaker. It is made
for a J Frame with 2" barrel, but also works for similar
size small revolvers such as Charter Undercover, Small
Taurus revolvers, etc.
The second one is a Smith & Wesson brand #7 which I believe
was made for a Python, but as you can see, a K frame with
4" barrel fits comfortably. That's a model 67 in it.
If you would like a chance, choose one (not both), tell me
you are a lefty, and what gun you would use it for.
As you can see, they both have "dog ears" to protect your jacket
lining from the ravages of the hammer spur.
I will draw a couple of names about 2 weeks from now.
The 18th or 19th and let you know in the post, if you win.
You will need to send me a PM with your mailing address.
No catch, no gimmick, no postage, so fire away.
It will be interesting to see if there are a few southpaws out
there.

Phil - Thanks for thinking of us Southpaws!
That J Frame holster has my name on it!
I will carry my New to me Centerfire 640 in it.

I am a lefty, and my dad is a lefty too. Monkey see, monkey do. If you could put my name in the hat, it would be much appreciated. I am interested in that S&W #7 for my four inch model 15. My parents in Virginia could make sure I get it. Thank you sir!

We lefties normally get left out! #1 would go well with my 642 or Charter Undercover.
I would be happy to be included in this.
Thanks,
Russ

Please enter me for the number 1, 2" J frame. Being a lefty gets frustrating sometimes when looking for good leather. I would rotate my M-34, M-60, and my M-642. I also have a "gasp" Taurus 85 but it seldom ever leaves the drawer in my wife's kitchen island.

Great karma. I'm a sinister type too so please put my name in for the 4" holster. I'd use it for my model 66 and 681 if it fits and my Colt 3 5 7. Also my pre-18 when plinking.
Thanks
(Just in case anyone doesn't know, the original definition for sinister was left hand or left handed.)

Very generous offer for us southpaws. I do appreciate a chance on the K frame for my pre 15 Combat Masterpiece.

i have to add myself to the karma bowl, either one. As with most lH people i have been plagued from childhood finding left hand suitiable stuff. As in a year and a half search for a holster for a 2.75inch ruger redhawk 41magnum. It's discrimination, i tell you.
ron
i have to add tho that 2inch holster is pretty sweet, having quite a few small jframes laying around. It just looks purty.

I'm not a lefty, but I'm going to have shoulder surgery later this year and need to practice with my left hand, as I'll be shooting thataway for a while.
Add my name please.

Thanks for the chance to throw my hat in the ring for the "J"
frame. Nice leather for lefties is almost non existent in retail
stores these days. I alternate a 431pd, 36, and 640 from
time to time. Have a nice day.

I am not a lefty, but my wife is and she could sure use a J-frame holster.
Thanks,

I'm also a southpaw and just want to say thanks for your generosity. I've come to realize that I'm not really an OWB holster guy, though, so please don't include me in the drawings.

Thanks to all who have put their name in the hat. Here is the plan:
Deadline will be April 18th at midnight Mountain Time, so those who
only check in occasionally can have a shot.
With credit to Carnac the Magnificent, I will put your post number (name)
in one of two hermetically sealed Mason jars. A jar for the J frame and a
jar for the k frame.
Sometime after midnight April 18th, I will draw a number (name) out of
each jar. If it is your number (name) you are the winner. I will post
the 2 winners here and also contact them by PM or email.
Good luck to all, and thanks again.

I am actually right handed, but am working on being ambidextrous with regard to handguns and want to carry my J frame on my left side, especially if I'm also carrying a long gun in the field.
So, if you'll accept that I'm a lefty wannabe...count me in, please.

UPDATE: With just 5 days to go until drawing, J is ahead of K 14 to 9.
Number 17, number 29, and number 32, you must choose the J or K.
Good luck to all and thanks!

I've been asked to let you all know that Crazyphil has suffered a heart attack and is currently in the hospital. He was worried about the karma drawing being delayed ! He's on the mend & will be back soon to complete this, he asked for "a couple of days" more for drawing the winners.
Regards,

A funny thing happend Monday morning. I was mowing the lawn and
ran completely out of wind. I rested a few minutes then finished the
lawn. Then I went inside and sat down in my recliner, and gave it about
10 minutes. It didn't get better. I hooked up my home monitor and my
pulse was 185 in fibrilation, so we called 911.
The fire department is just across the street so they were here in no time.
Had a nice bus ride to the ER. Met a nice cardiologist and an
electrophysiologist. Got an angiogram. Damage from on old heart attack
was preventing my heart from squeezing like it should.
Yesterday they gave me an implantable cardiac defibrilator. I feel like
the bionic man. Feel much better today.
I drew a number from the K frame jar. Number 28 bronco45 is winner.
I drew a number from the J frame jar. Number 21 Muss Muggins is the
winner. If you will both send me a PM with your mailing address I will
get your prizes right out to you.
Thanks to all for participating. If you didn't win, better luck next time.
And thanks for all the well wishes.
