I just ordered the most ridiculous looking gun, but it matches my ridiculous personality.

You don't need one. That's a pocket pistol.

They offer one on the sight you posted. Look under leather accessories, Slim Jim holster for 9' small bore $49.95.

 

[Ira7]

My bad!

They DO make a holster for it!

Yes they do .I have a Ruger Single Six with the 9& 3/8ths length barrel .check out blackhawk holsters

HEY! I didn't know they made the Heritage RR in that length. Mine is 6.5 inch. I would have bought the larger one. They DID have the 16", but come on...

I remember seeing a movie a long time ago…before I knew anything about guns…and the guy pulled out one of these ridiculous revolvers.

I thought it was a joke for the movie!

I plan to buy or fashion some kind of forearm wrap, maybe out of leather, that I can rest the barrel on my opposite arm.

With the 9" or 16", you can really take advantage of the high velocity of the 22lr and 22wmr.

Perhaps a bipod might be worth taking a look at for barrel support.

I would highly recommend you NOT try to shooting a revolver of any type with your hand or arm in front of the cylinder as the potential for a bullets shaving or the flame from the cylinder gap could or more likely injure your off hand or arm.

As an example from when I used to compete in IHMSA (International Handgun Metallic Silhouette Association) which had revolver shooters competing next too other shooters and a 4’x8’ sheet of 3/4” plywood was set up on both sides of the revolver shooters so as to catch any bullet shavings that could injure the shooter next to them.

I have a Henry in 22wmr, and wanted another toy in the same caliber.

Thank you.

Heard and understood!

When getting a Blackhawk or Uncle Mike's holster, I've discovered that the ones they RECOMMEND for any given model...doesn't always cover the trigger the same as it would for a quality "model-specific" leather holster. Here is my Uberti 4.75" Cattleman in an Uncle Mikes, and a model-specific leather.

That model specific leather is sweet.

I’ve been busy today running around town, but I did take a few minutes to check out the site.

Not so easy to navigate! But granted, like I said, only spent a few minutes but couldn’t figure out where to find appropriate leather models.

I’m pretty sure that Heritage’s are going to be a lot cheaper, but when I get home, I’ll fully explore the Blackhawk site.

Gun will arrive anytime between tomorrow and Tuesday.

(Will pick up at my new FFL just a few blocks from me, and hide it from my wife in the under-storage section of my Telluride.)

They are nice. They run $60-$70. Nylon holsters are $15-$20. Nylon is durable, but cowboys didn't wear nylon.

What brand holster is the leather one?

Hell, that’s not expensive at all!

Will check website when I get home.

MASC Holster brand. They have their own Amazon page.

I think you need a scabbard for that.
