    That's a nice looking holster -- I'm not sure it will fit the S&W 66 etc. But if you don't put a gun in it, it doesn't matter! I was just taking about that with my daughter, I was either going to make a papier-mache butt handle or put a banana in there for the next con we go to.

    My main criteria was a Jordan holster with basket weave in brown, that would take a 4" K frame. The swivel and swivel stop-snap will be covered by the gun itself, so that's a non issue. Which just leaves the color and strap as being the remaining issues - it was close enough for me. Just a...

    Holster: the brown is a little dark (they don't have any lighter options) but otherwise a good match: https://www.ebay.com/itm/S-W-4-K-Frame-Ruger-Speed-Six-Service-6-fits-Leather-Holster-Right-Hand/332403921660 (it isn't snapped to the belt loop, once it is snapped the draw angle will be correct)

    I had the same issue with the pockets on the Flying Cross wool shirt: velcro and buttons sewn onto the flaps not the pocket. I think it is an easy fix to relocate the buttons onto the pocket, and there is already what looks like a button hole, I don't see any need to resew it or open it up...

    Holster: Putting aside the various makers (Don Hume etc), the "border patrol" holster is also known as a "Bill Jordan holster", or "Jordan holster" The S&W66 is a "K frame". So any "Bill Jordan/border patrol" style holster in brown basket weave for a 4" K-frame S&W should work. Of the...

    I did a bit of a deep dive on the shirt. I haven't verified any of these but they are good candidates. I do believe what Hopper wears is the wool/gabardine based on the puff around the pocket flap stitching. Flying Cross CHP 440W9704 wool/gabardine...

    Stranger Things: Chief Jim Hopper's winter jacket?

    There are a number of things that don't match (no buttons, hood) but this might be a "close enough": http://www.americanwearstore.com/male-parka-jacket-w-47-hood/42946/p (I had seen Eagle Work Clothes mentioned in one of the threads)
