Hello all, I am a newb that wants to purchase the "necessary" accessories for my newly purchased 15-2v.  I am looking for a hip holster that is multipurpose for hunting and range work, speed loaders, and the pouch that carries the speed loaders.  Also what mount would I need to mount a scope on this particular revolver?  I know this is the wrong area to ask about reloading, but I was wondering if it makes more sence to purchase the 38 special dies that can also reload the .357 mags or to purchase them seperately.  I have a Lee Turret press and will definately start reloading ASAP.  Since the DW's are no longer in production it is hard to find stuff that will work w/ them...Thanks for the help.

I am at work but I have speed loaders, so they still sell ones that work, even says so on the package, it fits Smiffs as well.

 

Holsters.. I just go to guns shows and try them out... not a big problem. In fact i JUST bought a holster that works with my new EPC!

Soap Box, Ballot Box, Ammo Box

in that order.

4 Monson Model 15's

1 Palmer FB 15

1 Rossi 357 Model 92 (lever)

1 CZ 75B

As for scope mounts you have a couple of options.  First is the clamp on style such as Burris or B-Square.  The Burris is a much nice looking mount and seems more sturdy but you pay for that.  If you can find one they are $60+.   

Then you have the drill and tap mounts from Burris and Weigand.  

As for reloading if you are going to load a lot of both it would probably save you some time and frustration by getting two sets to have one dedicated to 38 and the other to 357. 

Hope this helps!

As far as holsters go I recommend the Simply Rugged Sourdough for the 15-2. It tucks in nicely and is well made. It won't work with a scope though.

Looks like folks have said it all! Good shooting and check the auction sites for parts and mounts!

I use these speedloaders for all my model 12 and 15 DWs. I think it even works for 357 supermag (for some reason I never tried, but I don't see why not):

SM cylinder is bigger and chambers are a little farther spaced. Close,

but a reloader for 15 will not work on SuperMag.
