Default Got to show off this S.D.Myres (Duh. It's an EPS) rig.

I picked this up off of Ebay a few weeks ago. It ran for a week without a bid that met the reserve,much less the B-I-N price. It was re-listed with a much lower "Buy-it-Now" price and I just couldn't keep myself from hitting that button. It even FITS! The .44 WCF Colt Bisley,unfortunately,did not come with it.

It's actually an El Paso Saddlery rig. I was doing some uploading of S.D.Myres holsters and just had that on my mind,what little there is left of it apparently, when I started this thread. Hell,the EPS logo is right there in front of me.

Usually no matter the quality, when I look at gun rigs there's one little thing that just doesn't seem right. In my mind, I mean. Not here! Everything is right. This is a fine outfit and I don't recall seeing a double loop Myres like that. It was just waiting all these decades to meet it's destiny with your Bisley.

Bobby, those are some nice looking holsters you got-& I can't take responsibility for my own holster problems,let alone yours.All I can say is I've never regretted buying one but I've regretted passing on many.
Best regards,

Thanks John. I just wish I had started my accumulating about 10 years earlier than I did. And I'm not saying that you are the SOLE cause of it,just an enabler,since every time you post a pic of a piece from your marvelous collection,I say to myself: "Ooh,gotta get me one of those!"
