Bummer, It Doesn’t Fit
You may remember I posted a photo of a Lawrence holster I own. Recently got a Model 1950 Target Revolver, 45 ACP. Thought the two would work together. NOPE! The barrel on the target revolver is too long. Guess the holster is for the shorter Army and 1917 Model!

Size code 528
Colt Marshal 6"
Colt Off Police 6"
S&W K-22. 32, 38 Masterpiece 6"
as they were for the Colt Marshal and Official police ( E-Frames ) as well as the K masterpieces (K-Frames) I can see where one could work for an N frame if allowed to stretch and relax a little. Looks like the 6 1/2" barrel of your 1950 is just a little too long.
The Colt E frame (Medium frame - think Python) is actually closer to a S&W L frame so a K-22 is a little loose but works, especially with a safety strap

Thank you for that information. No Colts around here. My 4” N frames fit this holster (short in the pouch) so I figure my 5 1/2” versions should a bit better. Tried the 1950 Target because I had the two.
Not sure if I will get a holster for this as it will mostly be a range piece along with the Model 25-2.

I think I have one I can give to you. It had a 2nd Model HE in it with a 6 1/2" barrel. I will PM you. Let me scrounge through my holster box.
It's actually an S.D. Myers holster, and probably 50+ years old, but you are welcome to it if you are interested. It's plainer than the Lawrence one you show, but still in nice shape.

It Fits!
So, I finally get home for a Chicago business trip and find this waiting for me.

Here is a shot of the toe and plug. I imagine that is a hard piece to sew correctly.
