Just for reference purposes the "L" frame had been thought of - just by Colt and not S&W. The Dade (and other makers) Speedloaders that were/are made for the Python and the older Officers Model, will fit the Smith "L" Frame guns. Originally, the Dade loader was made for ALL the popular Revolvers of the day - as long as they were Smith & Wessons or Colts. The reason the Dade loaders didn't survive is because they don't hold the cartridges anywhere near as well as the HKS loaders do. A dropped Dade is generally an unloaded Dade.
Now to the original Thread: The "Dirty Harry" rig is a good looking one for sure. And, I'm very glad I got one of these rigs just a year ago for $75.00!!! But, I can easily say that the Bianchi X-15 shoulder holster is every bit as good as the "Dirty Harry" rig <span class="ev_code_RED">AND for a lot less money</span>. The Bianchi and every other UPRIGHT shoulder rig I have ever used, does require a good "Gun Belt" to secure the holster to. Using a simple "Dress Belt" won't hold the gun properly. This goes for the Nylon rigs as much as it does for the Leather ones.
