I want to conceal an 1851 Colt Sheriff cap and ball revolver. it has a five in barrel. I was wondering if anyone could give me any advice on what type of concealed carry holster I should use. with somthing that big I was thinking a shoulder holster (since I very often where a 3 peice suit) any ideas?

Shoulder holster. Wear on the outside of your vest. With the weapons out there hope you are sure of the cap and ball thou.I carry a S/A 9mm Ruger 16 shot.

Yeah that is definitely not concealed carry. That's like trying to fit a 36" inch *** into a 26" in waist pant, not gonna happen, and if it does it won't be comfortable or functional. Get yourself a mini-glock and a nice inside the pant belt clip. Or if you want a revolver buy a airlight s & w .38, those things are so light they might weigh less than the holster... good luck

I would have to ask why in the world would you carry a cap and ball revolver as a concealed weapon, ( esp one that heavy)
And I am not sure it would ever be really "concelled" since I think it would be obvious like most larger weapons.
If you carry a day timer or a small leather note case, they make them with hidden built in hosters to use for busness people
They make fanny packs and back backs with concelled compartments.
The usefullness of any hoslter is how fast you can reach and draw.

The best answer i think is, whatever is most comfortable. with a heavy revolver, most people would consider a holster that offers support. A shoulder holster may be your best option.

Why in the world would you carry such an antiquated gun? A shoulder holster would be a good choice.
