.357 rifle - revolver combo
This is my very first such combo, dating back to 1970 and it is still my favorite. Both guns have seen a lot of shooting and hunting.
S&W M19 Combat Magnum in a threepersons style, elkskin lined holster - it really babies the deep blue finish, but the rosewood grips are sort of on their own.
Winchester 1892 SRC converted to .357 mag with newly refinished Bishop walnut stocks.

Ditto! I have my Dad's service revolver - a S&W Model 19 - from his days in the FBI (way back when they still used revolvers! ). Every time I go to qualify for a CCW, I use this gun. Part as a tribute to my father; part because I simply shoot it the most accurately of any handgun I own. Last time out, when getting my SC CCW, I shot a perfect score!

20cows - you are correct, the saddle ring got in the way of the receiver peep sight.
YK - I have two M19, one with a 4 inch and the one in the picture with a 6 inch barrel. However well I can shoot them, I use a S&W M39 for CC tests because here in Texas, if you qualify with a revolver, you can not carry a semi auto, but if you qualify with a semi auto, you can carry either.

A lot can be done with that combination. Looks good and congrats.
