At my age Bugs, they'd be handing me a walking cane.
Actually, the weapon is carried butt forward on the strong side directly over the trouser seam. That means that the butt is facing directly forward, parallel to the side of the body. It's actually the safest way to draw a single action quickly and fire one handed without having to resort to a covered trigger guard. The reason is that the shooting hand wrist has to be bent in such a way that it's very difficult to cock a single action before the muzzle is well in front of one's body.
Additionally, it carries very well that-a-way when seated in a vehicle. It is not, however, a safe way to carry with a uniform holster as it presents the weapon to anyone standing to one's front. (Not a problem, however, when carried concealed.)

PS - My friend, a local sheriff's deputy / firearms instructor has been prevailing upon me to switch gun hands. I have been resisting, but have decided to do both. That is, carry the Single Six strong side while my right hand heals as well as practicing left handed with a Model-36 and a Model 10 S&W. Kind of a "Win-Win" situation.
