New N-frame
Getting ready to head down south for my sisters wedding when the gun shop calls to let me know this came in. Needless to say I had to go take a look... I traded a forum member some work and some green for this 28-2 to mold holsters with. I'm mighty happy with my end of the trade - wish I didn't have to mold with it after seeing how nice it is. This is also my first N-frame Smith and it's in the s233xxx range.

Very Nice for your first N-Frame. Be very careful. This is contagious
and could get out of hand quickly. Ask my wife.

It is beyond sweet. Get a saddle colored basket weave holster (pick any brand) match a belt to fit with a speed loader and woohoo, life is good. If I still lived in a colder or cooler climate, I would carry that fine weapon in a shoulder rig from El Paso. Ahhh, memories. Good deal for you.

Hey Derosa, it's a good thing I do my own leather. It wil have a nice new home in due time. A shoulder rig is a thought, now isn't it? It will probably get something like this:
If only I could afford a 3.5" N frame....

you'll just be miserable. So i do.
Best Regards, Chuck

Eaglestroker that is a fine piece of work there my friend.
Put your work out there and i'm sure you could raise the
money in no time for a fine 3 1/2" N-frame.

4" N frames are the epitome of a perfect handgun. Nice 28-2 right there.

RE Holster, Belt and dump pouch.
Who made the holster, belt and dump pouch above? I would certainly like to have that rig in a concealable platform for my model 13-3 3inch. If the maker is on this forum, please PM me w/Ph # so I can see if you can make me one. Email is [email protected].
