Lobo Posted August 23, 2013 Report Posted August 23, 2013 It has now been about 5 years since I started the project of recreating the classic Tom Threepersons' style holsters complete with hand-carving to match the original pattern. This has been very rewarding, and I get to enjoy finishing dozens of these each year for customers all over the world. As usual, I have always intended to complete one or two for myself, but never seemed to get around to it. Recently added a pristine Colt Single Action Army with 5.5" barrel to my collection and, since that was Tom Threepersons' choice in sidearms, decided the time was right. This SAA is a .44 Special by the way, one of the less common calibers in this revolver (for years the .44 Spl. was only available from the Colt Custom Shop). Made over 40 years ago but still in new condition (note the factory hang tag on the trigger guard). Unfired, but I will probably correct that soon.
