I had a custom holster maker make me several holsters a few years back. Two were for my Star BM's, a left & right. He had a Colt Officers model Blue Gun, which turned out to be exactly right. Makes you wonder what Star was thinking.

The other two were for a S&W Model 15-2 K-frame with the raised front sight rib and target rear sight but with the 2" barrel. He had a 4" K-frame Blue Gun but without the rib/sight combo, which was important to the holster. I bought the K-frame Blue Gun and made a faux rib/sight for it. Attached it and sent it on. No pics, never thought about it. The holsters fit my 2" bbl 38 Special very well, although one was made the way he wanted and not the way I wanted, so I would not recommend him or buy from him again (words were exchanged).

But I thought the workmanship was excellent, and he got a free Blue Gun out of it.
