Here is a picture of some South Australian police contract revolvers.
Pictured are
2 X 7" revolvers cut for stock.
One 6 1/2" revolver cut for stock
2 stocks to suit
2 double flap holsters
1 single flap holster
1 stock pouch.


I'm curious if others have seen or have holsters for the 35 revolvers with the 6 1/2" barrel. The 6 1/2" pictured came with a double flap holster, so to the two 7". The single flap holster has the same markings as the double flap and the 6 1/2 revolver fits it perfectly, indents in the leather and all. Fits it better than the double flap holsters without a doubt.

Anyone seen a similar single flap holster with a similar revolver.
Thanks
Jamie

More pictures and details are encouraged.

Thanks for sharing.

Jamie, very nice assembly of Aussie Police S&Ws, etc. As you know, all the leather items for the Police guns were made in Australia, so there is a good chance, I think, that there's evidence in the Aussie Police archives of the contract/purchase agreements with the maker of the holsters that can be helpful in documenting quanities, deliveries, etc. I recall yrs ago, Max Slee indicating those archives has a lot of info that needed to be researched and were very informative for both the South & Western Police S&Ws discussed in his publication.

What's that 4th revolver just out of the picture..with the looong barrel...

"..with the looong barrel..." Revolving Rifle; the rear sight gave it away.
