I'm partial to long barrel sixguns for hunting and general shooting but I just can't manage them on the belt. So I have some shoulder holsters that are great, if less conventional.

Of late I have acquired some "belt gun" sized SA and really enjoy them. I've noted no lack of accuracy either. The sight radius does not seem to hurt me much. But then again I'll never win any awards for iron sight shooting.

On that topic with the "fixed sight" older spec guns I've begun holding up more of the front sight (so I can actually see it) and using an exaggerated 6-O'Clock hold. It works for me, using my 1903 Bisley .32 WCF. The old Hawes .22 too, although I actually filed some on that one. MO better.

Quite the opposite of your beautiful old six-shooter. But it's full size and a .22 LR.
