Safariland Model 003 Holster

[8ring]

I'm a newbie revolver shooter (GP-100, 6" heavy barrel) and am looking for a competition holster to replace my leather Bianchi. The Model 003 was advertised as a closeout at Holsters.com. There was no picture on their site. The site says that it has the same body as the Model 002 and the same mounting system as the Model 012. I emailed them about it but no one replied. Has anyone used this one?

I want a holster that rides fairly low because I have long arms. I'd like one that allows the muzzle to tilt forward a bit; that helps me get a better grip. Does it require a gunbelt?

Any info would be appreciated along with suggestions for other entry level holsters for USPSA revolver.

Thanks,

Chris

As I understand it, the 003 is the same as the 002 except that the 003 has the rod and leg block to you can change the vertical position of the holster. I would also assume it is adjustable for cant as well.

I use a 002 for my S&W 610. Holds it like a vise, but I can still manage a 1.50 draw with it (please, please, hold your applause). I'm still Dremeling and cutting on it to get it "just right". Like all Safariland stuff, great quality.
