Default Holster fit help, please!

I have found an early Dillon Precision Leather holster in excellent condition. This holster seems to have been made by Kramer, not Mitch Rosen. It is a pancake style marked "S2". Neither Dillon nor Kramer have sizing charts from that time. I really don't want to buy a holster without knowing what handgun it fits.

Can anyone tell me which handgun fits this "S2" sized holster?

@bigwheelzip,

That eBay listing is what caught my eye. In that listing, he volunteered that he didn't know what pistol it was for. The picture with the Model 39 didn't seem to have the same molding, so I presumed the picture with the 39 was a stock picture.

I contacted both Dillon and Kramer (who made it), and neither still had a size chart from that time period. While the holster in the auction looks great, short of what -db- volunteered, I have no clue what pistol will fit it. Money is too tight to invest in an unknown.

Thank you for your contributions!

DB is spot on. It's moulded for a SIG, either 220 or 226. In Dillon's world the S must stand for SIG; the 2 is anyone's guess.
