I see you figured out to use the direct link.

It's convoluted. I clicked on the link in PostImage, open in new tab, and copy / paste the url into SigForum. Is there an easier way?

Go to the image.Use the share button at the top then from the drop down list of links copy the Direct link.

They are not too old. Cowboy Action Shooting leather made with in the last 20 years or so.

Its based on an old design for Single Actions. The wooden dowel could be used with short barreled model that lacks an ejector rod. The overall length is a good match for those revolvers.

Modern reproduction of the mid 1890’s shoulder rig which keeps the gun exposed and secured with the spring steel clip around the cylinder while the muzzle rests in the tip cup.
The second holster is not related to the shoulder rig and is meant to be belt carried. Some of the outfits that cater to cowboy action shooters still make both. They may have been clipped together but they are not designed to be used together but for two guns one on the belt and one in the shoulder rig. Due to the included fancy dowel, I suspect for a sheriff’s model colt

It is an old Charles E. Collins rig from Prescott, Arizona.

This makes sense. I wondered why they weren't made by the same maker. There was no tin cup fitted into the holster, and there is very little wear for clues as to what was carried in it. The leather cup seems way too big to grip the barrel of a revolver. My only revolver is a Rossi 972 which is probably too large to work in this but I'll have to dig it out and see.

A Colt sheriff's model, you say? I wasn't planning on buying more revolvers . . .
