What I Carry The Colt In

Post by M. M. Wright »

I've had a couple of posters athere ask "what do you carry that SAA in?" I have cowboy rigs that were custom made by Tinsleep but what I use for everyday is a copy of a holster that came with an 1894 CFSS. It carries the revolver very high and tight against the body. The original got too fragile to use a lot so I made a new one that is ruffout. The belt says El Paso and is like Patton's.
Here's the original. There is no maker's mark on the holster that I can find. The saddle is R. T. Frazier.

If more men loved and cherished their wives as much as I love bacon the world would be a much better place.

Gamekeeper,
That saddle is by a famous maker, R.T. FRAZIER - PUEBLO SADDLE PIONEER Robert Thompson Frazier (Oct. 3, 1850 - July 27, 1931) was one of the three premier Pueblo saddle makers (Along with Gallup and Tom Flynn) who were instrumental in the development of the Western saddle as it is today. I think this one was made about 1890 and belonged to my wife's grandfather, Fay Smith a wiry little cowboy in western Kansas and eastern Colorado.
