Just got this holster in for my 1950 OP. I was wondering the time range during which it might have been made along with any other info someone could share about it. Marked "31-54"(according to the Bucheimer thread
on the S&W forum, the 54 actually refers to the MK III range, but so far my OP fits fine.


Thanks in advance.

Thanks, Red. There is a scan like that one on the S&W forum thread re Bucheimer from the 1975 catalogue(I think) which doesn't have the inset showing the draw and the 4inch barrel length is not offered, so this is much appreciated. Now to have fun practicing the draw before I head to the range...

Drawing from it is easy. You can pull either striaght up. or pop it through the spring. I haven't got reholstering down pat quite yet,but figuring out how these vintage holster were supposed to work is part of the fun.
I love to get the Sheriff ofr my DS and the 4 inch OP, and a Lewis for the 6 inch OPs.

Red;
Thanks for posting those pics. Were pocketless holster made for revolvers, or just for autos?
