Does anyone know about this holster? I emailed Milt Sparks and they said: It isn’t an HSR, it’s earlier than that. There were several similar style tension welt holsters and this one is close to being a Bakersfield.
The #445 was not a cataloged item??? I do not understand. How did they sell them? Did they sell it to police department. People at Milt Sparks said it looks like a Bakersfield. Could a Bakersfield be a model 445. I read that in 1986 Bakersfield Police Department bought Milt Sparks holsters for all its officers. Could they have been model 445's. Thanks for your help.
I had one of those that I used on duty in the late 80’s. It wasn’t a cataloged item. as I recall, it was referred to (at least when I ordered it over the phone from Milt Sparks), as a “BPD” or Bakersfield PD. It was made for them, and was their issue duty holster. Mine was for a standard 1911.
