Here is a link : http://www.btinternet.com/~cmr.inter...al/catalog.htm I have seen a couple of these in person and the quality seems very good. The wooden shoulder stock/board is not sold by this vendor... Regards, Pete... <img src="graemlins/yltype.gif" border="0" alt="[typing]" /> |

Don, This is one of the brands I have had experience with and while I do not know exactly what you are expecting in a repro holster I can tell you CMR is a CO. that does not pay attention to the details and the last several of these rigs I looked at, the pistol did not fit into the holster.
This could have been a fluke on the fit but the rest of the holster had many flaws. I wrote a pretty extensive critique of this CO. in the old forum I believe or maybe it was in the new, I forget but you could find it if you look at either holsters or my previous postings. One thing about it, they're cheap. You often get what you pay for though...Jerry Burney

Don,
If memory serves me correct, I think SARCO has the complete holster and board as a reproduction for sale. The price was in the $250 range. I have not seen one in person, but the leather is probably made in India. Some of the later made Indian "Arty" made holsters look pretty good but are not perfect as Jerry has stated about the CMR holsters. I would give SARCO a call and check out if they still have any.

I knew that SARCO sold them at around $175.00 but I didn't know the quality. I think I will give them a try. Thanks Guys
