Photoman, what is the first holster you posted a picture of? Is it a pocket or belt slide?
Thanks.

Here's a couple that I've made.
Crossdraw tuckable
IWB or OWB strong side. If you remove the straps it can be used as OWB.

Yes I did. It takes a bit more time but I think it does a much better job. I'm working on a strong side IWB tuckable right now. I'll post pictures when it's done.

Here's the one I use most. I put a black strap on it because I wear a black belt most the time and the one strap does not show up much even when I tuck my shirt.
Who said a IWB couldn't be pretty.

Model 60 w/ a Bianchi OWB holster - I still like the strap vs. the thumbsnap better.
Model 63 w/ Target grips & an older Hunter holster.

The B37 is the type of holster and the 62 means it is for a two inch revolver.

I really like the horsehide Rayban, these are my 2 favorites I've made for myself - a pocket and a belt carry.

Horse isn't as pliable, doesn't take carving or stamping very well compared to cow.....but I love working with it.
I especially like it's "character marks" that shows up so nicely when dyed and finished.
It's different than cow to work with, but I wouldn't say it's any more difficult.

I've changed holsters since my last post in this thread. I now carry my 642 in a customized Wraith IWB holster by Seth's Gun Leather.
I hope people aren't getting tired of me posting this picture, but I really like this holster.

Almost forgot about this one, the Bianchi #55L Lightning holster. Designed to fit Centennial hammerless revolvers, and also revolvers fitted with Bianchi Lightning hammer shroud grips.

I have carried two Chief Specials frequently, usually as a BUG. I carry a model 37 in a Desantis elastic ankle holster or an old Cobra Gunskin leather ankle holster. In the winter I carry it in a pocket holster built into my 5-11 parka. My model 60 started out in 1986 in a Cobra Gunskin, the a Desantis and most recently, a Galco shoulder holster and a Blackhawk CQC holster. When I carry the Model 60 as a trail gun I am partial to the Blackhawk holster. I used the Galco shoulder holster for my BUG when working plainclothes. Nothing special, just working leather.

With the exception of a Mika Round Cut Pocket Holster and a Galco Ankle Glove (both not shown)
these are the J-Frame holsters I use on a regular basis.
Here are the other two I mentioned that were not shown in the above photo......
I didn't want them to feel left out

El Paso for 5" J-frame
There's not much to choose from in a holster for a 5" J-frame but this El Paso fills the bill very well. I bought it and the pair of round to square butt conversion Eagle diamond target replicas for a Model 60-18 in .357 that never happened.
They do look kinda lonesome, don't they
