Default FINALLY! My Perfect Holster

I've been on the hunt for a holster that met the specifications I'd settled on. Being an old fart who'd lived and worked hard, I have several damaged joints that limit mobility. Drawing my 6" barreled pistol from a standard belt holster on my strong side was awkward so I'd set things up for a cross draw. I should mention that I'm in Canada so I'm very restricted as to what I can legally carry in the bush or woods, but I have an excellent S&W antique in .44 Russian.
I'm helping a friend with clearing an estate and I've been asked to see to the firearms, accessories, and ammo. Among the items was a Crossman 38C pellet pistol & holster. Well blow me down if the holster doesn't almost perfectly accommodate my pistol and fill my requirements. It needs just minor tweaking to be absolutely perfect for my needs and it's surprisingly good thick leather and it sits just perfect for me to comfortably carry and draw. Who knew?

I admire your workaround of Canada’s firearms laws, effective and classy to boot.
Glad you found a holster that works.
Regards,

Repurpose beats recycle every time! Old cartridges never die. They just get less..common.
