Just picked up a 1988 vinatge 5.5" RH and I'm in need of a quality belt holster for said 44. I've googled it and came up with little, any of you folks have any suggestions? Leather if possible, maybe a crossdraw and affordable 
5.5" Redhawk holster?

I use a Bianchi 5BHL for my Redhawk. Good classic looks. Works real well. It's listed as fitting the 5.5 Redhawks but labeled DW 44 - Dan Wesson.
Most any N-Frame holster will work.
I use an old Safety Speed 44LH.

eBay member usamike99 has sold several holsters to me and I've always had excellent results.
For a brand new holster there's several good makers who are members here. Some have a "Sticky" in the Auction Links & Recurring Items section.

I'll have a Simply Rugged here in another week or so for mine and can give you a fresh out of the box report then.

While not "inexpensive", I've found my Sparks HSR to be the perfect companion for my Redhawks.
I know they have the mule......

I've got a Bianchi #111 "Cyclone" that my 5-1/2" Redhawk fits in perfectly. It's labeled to fit Ruger Redhawk and DW .44.
It's been sitting in my safe for a while as my RH is mostly a range gun. It's in great shape and I'd be willing to sell it for $70.00 shipped if you're interested.

IMO Simply Rugged is just about the best out there especially for the price. A well built good looking rig can be had for as little as $60.00-70.00 plus shipping. I've got two and I wouldn't trade them for the world.

Yes I use the Galco DAO and in my opinion it is the best holster I have tried for the "Big Red". I have had several others and this one works best. It is the only holster I have tried that allows me to carry the Redhawk on a pants belt and still be comfortable.

Here's something right here in our own Classified Section. This member seems to always advertise holsters in the under $50 price range. If you ain't a lefty maybe he's got something else.
