Default Got one a little different style

As many of you know, I love, love, love floral carved holsters made by the big three. The greatest majority of my collection falls in that category. My favorite holster pattern is the "Texas Jockstrap".

Lately, I have had my eye out for "snubby" holsters. They seem to be more difficult to find in good condition. Probably because many of these holsters were actually used, and used hard, while the ones for the larger guns might not be used as much. I spotted this one last week. It is a SD Myres jockstrap holster made for a Colt Detective Special and it looks almost new. But, instead of a floral carved style, this one is plain. I like it a lot, and whoever bought it to carry their DS, was one cool dude.

Since it is in such nice condition, the head of detectives who originally bought it, must have received it as a retirement gift. That is my story and I am sticking to it!!
Larry

What a neat little holster. I really like that. If you have a chance, can you post a picture with the revolver in it. Congrats on the find.

Interesting holster. That seems like a lot of leather & bulk for a gun that would be worn concealed. But someone must have wanted that style back when it was offered.

Very nice little Myres! I too am a fan of the Texas Jockstrap pattern. Here is a similar style Heiser single loop for a J frame.
