Very nice all. I especially like the .357X7 but all those revolvers would be welcome in my safe.

Quite the scoop! (reply)

Got one of those Cyclones down in my box of holsters. Bought it back in the 1980's for a 2.5 inch 66 and then found it fit my 3 inch 686. Nice holster.

A very fine trio indeed! (reply)

I have not even seen a 69 yet at any of the local shops or shows.

Thanks, good information! (reply)

The bianchi is a much nicer holster, in my opinion anyway. The Bianchi is made of much heavier leather, and no plastic parts like the Galco has.

I still need to find a Cyclone for a 4 inch L frame.

excellent strong side and cross draw thumb break holster. Galco copied it and calls it the Phoenix.

I had to give up a few long guns (reply)

that I hadn't shot in years. No great loss, I've done what little hunting I've done the last few years with a sixgun anyway.

What I really need to get is a crossbow. We have a super long archery season here, and I'm smack in the middle of a great controlled (archery only) area. But I know absolutely zip zero nada about crossbows, never even fired one.

good grief ! that is an aswesome group of fine (reply)

I did a little horse trading this week, actually made a three way trade for one of these. A couple of guys now have long guns they wanted, and I have a couple more revolvers than I did last week. And I found a couple of prizes in the $10 holster box at a pawn shop.

This 44 Redhawk came from an older guy who said he just can't see iron sights any more. He now has a nice scoped Marlin 30-30 that he's probably out in the woods with today. It has fiber optic sights on it, he says he has the originals and will mail them to me.

Another .44 and another Model 69 (now I have two). This one was literally the gun that came with a box of shells with six empties. I wouldn't have even been interested in this one, until I tried the trigger. My other model 69 has a trigger than Hillary Clinton would be proud of, this one would make an old craftsman at S&W proud.

On the subject of the Model 69, this Galco holster fits it perfectly. I believe it was made for a 4 inch N frame, but if fits the 4 1/4 inch L frame to perfection.

And finally, this one is a real prize to me. I don't know why but I just love this gun. The Performance Center trigger is just fantastic, both DA and SA. The stock grips even feel great to me.

Another holster discovery. This holster fits this 686+ like it was made for it. It also fits my 2 3/4 inch Speed Six.
