Modern revolver in an SAA style holster???

[ArmedCorgi]

Looking for options, opinions on a western style/SAA holster for my GP100. I have an SAA holster for my little Rough Rider .22 and the GP seems to fit pretty well in it. I like the look of the SAA style holsters much more than modern revolver holsters. Any one else feel that way? I know they aren't as secure for open carry (not that it matters in this state anyway), but for hunting maybe? IDK...

I like it. I grabbed one off of fleabay about a year ago for my S&W model 4516 .45, Until this post I had forgotten all about it.

It's a very well made holster. If you can snag one for a decent price I highly recommend one.

This is the one I mentioned. Is it the same brand? Good price?

Yes, That's the same maker. Good, well made holsters. That's not a terrible price. Is it the only one listed? They ARE getting harder to find. I think I read somewhere not tooo long ago that El Paso leather went out of business some time ago.
