Years ago, with long barreled revolvers, and once years ago with a Bianchi horizontal, for an Officers model Colt. Still have the holster, but not the pistol. Some don't like the horizontal rig, if you are "behind" the guy with it! It's another case of "remembering" where your gun is! If it is only "once in a blue moon", you may be better off as bblr stated, on your hip, in the same place, as always.
