Congratulations.

I believe the holsters for the 6 1/2" were different to the 7". I have one that is slightly different and better fits the 6 1/2" barrel.

Interestingly most documentation indicates the 6 1/2" were not cut for the shoulder stock.
Yet most of the 6 1/2" in the US appear to be cut for the shoulder stock.
My 6 1/2" from the first shipment, has been cut, but not by Smith & Wesson.
Your 6 1/2" was on a later shipment so possibly the first shipment of 6 1/2 were not cut with later shipment cut for shoulder stock....
