Tom, I have a bisley hunter and I tried it in my Freedom Arms cross draw holster for my 4.75" model 83; it has an open end. It fits nicely and would be very surprised if the 7.5 inch version of the FA holster didn't fit perfectly as well. They make a very high quality holster and the cross draw model is one of the few that I've seen that doesn't flop around when you wear it. FA sells them for $69.95
