Vintage Cobra Gunskin? Late 80s/early 90s

[The_Truth]

Not too long ago I acquired a 4" round butt NY1 Model 64 from a detective in NY and the pistol came with a Cobra Gunskin IWB holster. It's a "hard" leather holster with a metal clip. Excellent design, as it forms PERFECTLY to the pistol and has a thumbstrap, which a lot of IWB holsters do not. It's pretty much, in my opinion, one of the "more perfecter" IWB holster designs I've been able to find for a revolver.

I wonder if these holsters were specially made for the NYPD or if they were available commercially for any type of gun, because upon a quick Google search I can't find anything like the one I have.

I only ask because I would LOVE one made for my Model 13 3". Any help or guidance would be appreciated! I can provide photos if need be.

I never owned a Cobra Gunskin Holster and I can't answer your question,
but I do remember Cobra's magazine ads starring Ms. James. They were
great. I could show you one but the Moderator might not approve.

Yeah, those just aren't the same as the vintage ones... and they don't make one for a Model 13
