I showed you all my 642-1 on the first page of this thread with a few of
it's favorite holsters. But, I have quite a few holsters with hammer protectors,
but my 642-1 of course doesn't have an exposed hammer to
protect. What to do? I could buy another J Frame with a hammer, but
being the cheapskate that I am I bought a little Charter Undercover with
an exposed hammer. It fits all the holsters made for J Frames.
Here are 5 examples, left to right:
Heiser 459 made for Evaluators
Wolfram "Wolf" brand made in Albuquerque where Wally Wolfram was a
police officer.
Wolfram "Blazer" made for G. F. Cake Co. after Wally had moved to
Monrovia, CA. and where he was also a police officer, and mentored
a young upstart holster maker by the name of John Bianchi.
Wolfram holster made for Smith & Wesson. Have another one made
for Colt, but it looks exactly like this one, except the stamping on the
back. After changing hands a few times, Wally's company ended up
belonging to S&W until they unloaded it on G&G.
Finally, a little carved "dog ear" by Myres.
