This is what it doesn't fit except, the CZ is oh so close. It is snug, but doesn't draw well. It extends about 1/2" out the bottom. The holster fits a J frame very well as far as draw and looks but is not as secure as one would need it to be. It is well made and well tooled. Drawing will be done on June 29.

Bump if anyone wants to try this with their herd.

 

[Jim R]

OK Put me in. I have a Kimber Micro that may fit and a couple Spanish Semi auto pistols that may fit. If it don't fit we will go to round 5

Add my name please. I may have a pistol that fits; it isn't on your list.

 

[DumpStick]

Put me in please. I have a few not on the list.
If nothing fits, I'll pass it on.

 

[LoadedRound]

I hope it's OK to throw this out there. Has anyone tried an adjustable sight J frame in it.

Looking at the picture with a J frame and my 2" M34 got me to thinking?

Please add my name to the list. That thing is purdy.

Yes, it is close enough to almost pass as a fit until you invert it or angle it. It is wonderful to draw a J frame from it but not a secure fit.

I'd appreciate consideration,.......

Thanks for letting me know. I had to ask

I walked downstairs and realized I had forgotten about this Karma. Drawing ends Friday night at Midnight Mountain Time.

 

[BC38]

I have a Rossi 971 snub, a Taurus 617 (7 shot) snub, a Taurus 605, and a Ruger LCP I'd like to try in it....

 

[ACORN]

I have an SP101 a Charter Bulldog and a Taurus 445 I'd like to try.

 

[squidsix]

If it almost fits a CZ75 it just might fit a Hipower. I'm in

Just got back from vacation today. First stop was the post office to see the mystery holster. No luck with the Kimber Micro, same with the two Spanish autos that I have. My wife walks by me sitting at the bench and says " I think that will fit my carry gun". Off she goes and gets her pre model 30 and her pre model 32.. The earlier post said that It would not fit a I Frame but that is not true. They are a perfect fit on both these guns.

The gun is snug in the holster and draws out very nicely.


Here is the pre model 32.

Jim, that is outstanding! I am glad that we finally found a happy home for that very special holster. We tried a Baby Chief at Baton Rouge, but I guess that the holster wanted a specific gun. Congrats!

My Wife loves it. We had one of my shooting buddies come by last night and the wife made that holster the center of all that happened. And the fact that she can use it and I can't made it all the better.
