Default Aker 137 Bodyguard/Centennial Holster

Does any one have a picture of a bodyguard or centennial revolver installed in an Aker 137 pancake holster? I can't find a picture anywhere. It is suppose to have a strap that wraps around the trigger guard from the back side.

thank-you!

Bianchi makes a holster specifically designed for centennial models, although I can't recall the model number. As you described, the retention strap goes around the trigger guard instead of the hammer. Also designed to work with the old discontinued Bianchi hammer shroud grips.

Yep, that's it, the Model 55L Lightnin'. I believe Optics Planet has them for about $63 plus free shipping.

Thank-you. I wish the belt loop wasn't so wide (1.75"). It seems like it would flop around like that.
