Help me identify this holster

[wgstack]

Can anyone identify this holster. I have contacted Bianchi and Safariland and they claim it is not theirs. Uncle Mikes failed to respond to two inquiries. The front of the holster is open and appears to have a retention spring. I saw it in an article in one of the gun magazines. I contacted the author and he told me he did not know either as he just used a stock photo to depict a shoulder holster.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Sad to say, 'my' old Bianchi company ain't what it used to be. Indeed it is a Bianchi shoulder holster, and since the late 1980s, too:

Bianchi 4601 Ranger Viper Shoulder Holster System

To find the matching image I simply typed 'bianchi shoulder holster nylon' into Google; and there it was. If necessary I would've reached for a late '80s Bianchi catalog.

Seems like something the folks at the New Bianchi should've known, eh? Except it's really Safariland. Idiots.
