I sold this one recently, an early version marked patent pending, made back when Roy was still in Illinois, for a Mauser HSc .380:

The second holster I ever made was in the late 1980s, and was from this Tandy kit. I came with full sized patters for most Colt and Smith & Wesson large and small pistols and revolvers.

The Roy Baker "influence" is obvious...

Default Roy's Holsters

I have an early one made in Rockford, Il by himself at 2729 Carnon Street Rockford, IL. This was just prior to his moving to Magnolia, Ark. The reason for the move was that he got a large order from the FBI. He obtained an old pickle factory in Magnolia. This holster is stamped ROY'S 2729 Carnon Street Rockford.IL 61109. Pat. pending M39. was made for the model 39 Smith & Wesson.

Roy's place in Magnolia, Arkansas is about 120 miles from me. I was in law enforcement back in the early 80's and a lot of the local law enforcement wore Roy's rig's. It wasn't just his signature pancake that he was well known for locally. I have seen a few custom rigs he made for some of the guys. A true craftsman.

I keep 3-4 of his pancake rigs around for various guns. Mostly 4-6" inch barreled K & N frames.

Sadly, I don't use them that often. My body and Roy's holsters conflict with one another. I'm barrel chested, short armed and long bodied...if that makes any sense. It's almost a sure bet the holster will ride too high for me to seriously consider using it for anything other than a woods bumming holster. Darn shame.

Murphy
