I got a Springfield Armory SA-35 Hi-Power a couple of months ago, and have been casting about for a good holster. I bought a Bianchi "Pistol Pocket" IWB holster for it, but wasn't completely satisfied as some mobility issues from a shoulder replacement surgery made it difficult to draw and re-holster. I have several El Paso Saddlery "Threepersons" style holster for revolvers I carry, and like the ease of drawing and re-holstering with this design. I live in a "Low Threat" environment, rural living, ATV riding, hiking, etc, so don't need any go fast holster like you might in an urban environment.
I ordered on El Paso's website a tan, right hand Threepersons for my Springfield SA-35 Hi-Power and received it in the mail exactly eight days later, unheard of speed for El Paso Saddlery. They must keep commonly ordered holsters in stock and ready to ship, in the past I have waited months for a holster from them. There was a price increase, two years ago they about $75, now $114. Pay for quality and you only cry once!

. And fast delivery too. FYI EPS is mistaken to call that a Threepersons; it is a Donihoo. The Threepersons for the 1911 looked like this, according to Myres which company both named and introduced the Threepersons in 1930:
