Holster
« on: April 25, 2022, 05:09:37 AM »
I'm not always being political.

I just traded a M1911A1 for a S&W model 13-1.
Family thing so we don't need cops involved.

I don't normally do revolvers. and the holster
the 13 came with sucks!
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Being a K frame (at least I believe, but dogman is the resident expert), G-Code makes kydex for revolvers.  I'd get one if they made them for N frame (my model 28).

Leather is always a classic option.  However, I have also seen what "less than stellar" care of them in leather holsters have done to guns in Hawaii's climate.  My dad's Python was stored in a leather holster.  Luckily, we noted the issues prior to needing more than wipe down with Ballistol and those anti-corrosion rags.

What are your intended carry uses?  Is this for concealed carry? around the house? hunting?

IWB or OWB?  Shoulder holsters are making a comeback, too.

What's the barrel length?

I never store any of my pistols in their carry holsters no matter what material they're made of.  I have some small quick-access safes that have nylon holsters used to present the weapon for immediate use once the door is open.  So far, nothing negative observed with any of the guns' finish.

Since I have no guns in the state of Hawaii.
Open carry in a Constitutional carry state.
I'm thinking of one of those cop hard to take styles.
They have a thumb actuated release.
I'm not doing a "Good, Bad, and Ugly"
gunfight.
4 inch barrel, Standard 60's cop issue.
Thanks.
