This holster fit my Taurus .44 Special perfectly, with no break-in required. The build is heavy-duty, with thick leather reinforcement around the opening, heavy stitching and first-rate leather. Better than many holsters costing more.

This holster is a great value, well-fitted for my Taurus 44 special, final break-in only required leaving the weapon in a plastic bag inside the holster overnight, then it was a perfect fit. The quality of the leather and stitching is excellent.
