holsters
« on: February 20, 2011, 12:39:17 PM »
Who makes a holster that will conceal a single action revolver?  I don't advocate using one for concealed carry/self defense, but there are times I'd like to carry one discreetly.

Milt Sparks will custom make you one.
they build very very few of these sort of IWB SA holsters each year.
i was told that mine was the only one they made that year:

I have a pancake type from SimplyRugged that has inside out snaps and can be used both IWB or OWB.

Ditto on Simply Rugged they are great!  They also have a lot of options.

I carry strong side hip as well with my as holster.
The original ss was designed as an appendix iwb holster. If you have a 0 cant, it would probably work.
Garrity leather makes one called invictus that is the best of the current offerings.

jimster, thanks for the lead on Simply Rugged! In CT, only 22LR or 17 rimfire handguns are permitted on State Land. I have not been happy with the holsters I've found for my Ruger New Bearcat as the relatively inexpensive ones have a metal rivet head inside that will eventually contact the revolver as it breaks in. The Simply Rugged Silver Dollar Pancake looks to be exactly what I need, and will allow the gun to ride high enough to let me sit on the  ground stand [pad] while hunting!
