Diamond D Leather - I have the Guide's Choice. It is a great holster but a ways away from $15.

Shoulder rigs for a S&W model 29 .44magnum...
If you want a simple range or field holster for your N frame model 29 revolver, it should do okay.
I bought a cheap black nylon med frame ambi holster for $5.00 in a gun store barrel & used it off/on for nearly 20 years.
For handgun hunting with a scope, I'd spend a few bucks & get a Bianchi HuSH shoulder holster or maybe a Lawman Leathergoods STU.

Before purchasing anything from Lawman Leather, I would search for threads concerning them on this and the Smith-WessonForum. People who have ordered from them are running into major difficulties it seems plus the have a Nevada BBB rating of F!
I would take the time to inform yourself before making any decision to deal with them.

slander-bias; Lawman Leather Goods, forum member...
I was going to bring up the point about Lawman Leather Goods too(as I have in the past with other forum topics) but I'd consider it slander or a bias.
I agree that any customer should review a company or the products before buying but in fairness, Lawman Leather Goods has a right to sell products to consumers & be in business.
To my understanding, the owner/CEO is a forum member too. He's in the best position to address these issues if he chooses.

ps; Forum members have a valid right to express their opinions also but they should be honest & respectful, IMO.

The reccomended size of Uncle Mike's holsters is sometimes a puzzler.
I bought their cross-draw (chest) holster for hunting using my Ruger Redhawk with 7 1/2" barrel. As you state, it "swallowed" this big pistol.
I next bought a size down in the same style. It was also large but I modified it using a Chicago screw to sorta pinch down the excess. It is now an excellent and comfortable holster for it's purpose.

My favorite shoulder rig is the Bianchi X-15. I have one for my N frames 610 w/ 6 1/2" barrel. The same holster also fits my 7 1/2" Super Blackhawk and 6" 686. It even fits my 8" cap and ball revolver. Very comfortable for all day wear even with the heavy 610.
My next purchase will be one listed for Glock 21 as it will also work for my CZ97B and S&W 39. That's the beauty of the spring loaded front closure, the same holster will fit many similar sized guns.

Mike's makes some good holsters but nothing I would use for conceal carry. I have a chest rig for my scoped hand guns that works better than anything else I have tried. Keeps the gun and scope dry and protected why beating the brush.
