Working on an estate and have come across an original Dirty Harry holster made by Cattle Baron with what appears to be an accessory ammo holder. Everything appears new. Anyone have one of these and What would be the value? I can put it on the classifieds if there is a lot of interest.

Wow - if Clint Eastwood used it, I'm sure it's worth a bundle!

I'm sorry, I couldn't resist - I got rained out and have drank too much coffee this morning

This one is too new looking for Clint to have worn it chasing all those bad guys...

I would guess about $300 as I bought one that shows a little more use for $250 about a year ago.

Doc - do you know anything about the accessory pouch in my photo? The ends are open so I wonder if it is for ammo? The backside says Original Dirty Harry Accessory.

I am not familiar with the accessory pouch. My holster did not have that accessory, but since it was used, it may have been lost over time.

Personally, I always liked the Bianchi X-15 but I always added the 'Belt Loop' tie down on the opposite side for the same reason.

I've used both and prefer the Bianchi by far because it offers more flexibility.

I owned a couple of these but, none were very comfortable? Poorly made.
