Holster for Tanaka revolver
 
What kind for if i want to wear it on a belt, and what kind for drop leg?

Depends on what Tanaka you have. Right now I just use some cheap adjustable one for mine, but they are not so great if your gonna take the thing outdoor. I have had my M500 fall out a few times playing CQB.

If you got one of the smaller-mid size ones there are allot of nice leather holsters out there.

Tanaka Umbrella Special edition Magnum 8 inch.

Yeah that's pretty big. You can look online for leather holster for a 8 inch Magnum. I only use a black adjustable one and it's ok, but not super secure.

Spend the money on a decent holster or you'll spend your money replacing the pistol that fell out of your shitty one.

my searches has fallen on the results that most decent holster made for magnums are limited to 4 inch ...
i guess i'll have to buy that and pierce the bottom lollll

unless someone hsa a better alternative.
there's must be some tanaka magnum user out there

If you've got a wheelgun, get a holster designed for a wheelgun.

That's because just about no one uses an 8" revolver as a carry weapon in real life....it's too damn big.

Most leather holsters are custom made. Get ready to pay as much for your holster as you did for the gun....

I'm having the same problem, I tryed a cheap one that says fitts all but the gun still fell out so still looking out for one but I might have better luck, I've got the 3.5 inch compensated barrel. It's not that bad a holster for the price but for the S&W it's crap.

with the adjustable utg drop leg im using i have put it through some pretty good abuse,mostly accidental as far as gaming goes. slipped,,fallen,,bashed it against steel walls and decks,,and lowcrawled in the rain with it and it hasnt let me down yet. all this with a 14 inch long weapon ( socom with silencer ) you can image the abuse the silencer takes but the weapon will not fall out of this holster.

The main problem with the tanaka is not necessairly the long cannon but the diameter of the wheel. This thing is huge, almost cartoon like :D

no worries,,this holster will accomidate it,,literally opens up butterfly like for sizing the gun. then you simply close it up around the weapon and double sided velcro holds it securely. over time if its used for the same gun it forms to that shape.

thx for help:)
