I'm right handed. I've got a great Thad Rybka cross-draw holster for my special run 5 1/2" Bisley .44mag and .45 conv. (I'm also waiting on a Barranti #5 for these)
I very recently got a 4.2" Redhawk in .45 Colt. I'm ditching the Hogues and putting on the right stocks asap. The gun is a great size, but I'm at a loss for carrying it. The barrel seems too short for a smooth cross-draw (if that makes any sense) so I'm leaning toward a strong side carry but, again, have reservations about carrying it that way as well. It's crazy; I love the size, but it seems to present a problem for carry. Maybe once these stupid massive Hogues are gone the profile of the gun will be easier to envision a holster for it.
Any hints, help, experience out there?
