Hi everyone, I just mounted a red dot on my BFR and now my holster doesn't fit. Can anyone suggest a good holster source? The revolver is a 6.5" long cylinder (.500 S&W). Thanks analog_peninsula ----------------------- It takes character to withstand the rigors of indolence. | ||

well, what brand holster were you using before you mounted the red dot sight? If ignorance is bliss; there are some blissful sonofaguns around here. We know who you are, so no reason to point yourselves out. | |||

The pistol came with an inexpensive Uncle Mike's shoulder holster. It's reasonably serviceable, and they probably make a similar model for use with scoped revolvers, but I wanted to see what others were using before I settled for something that was "adequate". analog_peninsula ----------------------- It takes character to withstand the rigors of indolence. | |||

I have an Uncle Mike's shoulder holster for a large scoped revolver and I really couldn't be happier with it. Yup, it's cheap, but it works pretty well in this configuration.

I've taken the Uncle Mikes holsters and split the top, then sewed a cover over on the holster to protect the scope. Not terribly difficult to do. If ignorance is bliss; there are some blissful sonofaguns around here. We know who you are, so no reason to point yourselves out. | |||

You can always buy a trailer for your ATV and put a blanket in it to cushion the pistol.........  xxxxxxxxxx When considering US based operations of guides/outfitters, check and see if they are NRA members. If not, why support someone who doesn't support us? Consider spending your money elsewhere. NEVER, EVER book a hunt with BLAIR WORLDWIDE HUNTING or JEFF BLAIR. I have come to understand that in hunting, the goal is not the goal but the process. | |||

This is what I use for my scoped BFR's. http://www.magnumresearch.com/...?ProductCode=BFR2511 If you're going to make a hole, make it a big one. ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ Member of the Delaware Destroyers Member Reeders Misfits NRA Life Member ENDOWMENT MEMBER NAHC Life Member DSA Life Member | |||
