Did Bianchi ever produce a Ruger holster with the brass studs ( don’t know correct term)? Aftermarket enhancement? Hmmmm

I believe that it's an aftermarket addition.

I don't think Ive ever seen one like that from Bianchi and I'd really be afraid of the rivets holding them on might scratch up a gun when unholstering/reholstering.

If in fact they are OEM rivets then the holster should be lined so the ends are not visible when the flap is opened and will not scar the gun's finish.

Thanks for the input. Rivet can be seen in pic where the cut out is. Not covered, and I can see that it would indeed contact parts of the single six. I haven’t put a gun in it yet, just got it as part of an auction lot of 4 holsters, but was intrigued by it and don’t know much about holster lore….

No

KInda looks like the work they used to do down in TIjuana years ago , or some leather ( holster) maker who was "Bored" yes would be nasty to any gun going in or out........
