Hickok Conversion 3.5" .45LC & Holster

Although it appears to be a conversion, the 1871-72 Open Top model was Colt?s® first revolver specifically manufactured to fire a centerfire cartridge by incorporating the loading gate in the frame. Since Colt® did not use percussion revolver parts, the revolver was manufactured as an entirely new model, first with Navy-sized grips, later with Army-sized grips. The Hickok model is a modern twist on the classic Open Top that features a snub nose barrel. This model features a case-hardened forged steel frame, round barrel with front blade sight, no ejector rod, blued steel grip parts, an Army-sized walnut grip, and a rear sight notch on the rear of the barrel. Handmade leather holster designed for the Hickok revolver by Taylor's & Company. Fits a 3.5" Open Top Revolver model as shown. It includes a loop on the back of the holster that fits a 2.5" width belt. Made in a right handed configuration.
