Welcome to the forum!
There are a number of holster gurus here who should be able to help you out.

Blame it on Sixto - now that is a viable plan.

IWB is no fun with a revolver. I'd recommend Kramer's horsehide Belt Scabbard for OWB. Very thin, but extremely sturdy. Rides fairly high to conceal under an open flannel or hawaiian shirt.

right now i have a cheap vertical shoulder holster but i am looking for something simpler, as it is a pain to put on, but i don't know if i should look in to a holster for my my strong hip or a cross draw model, any advice on that subject?

I carry my 3" Ruger GP100 IWB with a Milt Sparks Summer Special II.
I don't see why everyone says Revolvers are hard to conceal. ::

I carry a 4" GP100 in a FIST #14 holster. This holster comes with removable straps and can be used IWB or OWB. The gun carrys comfortably both ways and in summer time I often just wear a loose fitting tee shirt as a cover garment. Like BikerRN, I don't see why some people think a revolver is hard to conceal. You'll need a good belt too of course.

The revolver itself isn't too bad to conceal, just gotta remove that thick cylinder!

Or at least cut way back on the 'ole capacity!
I'd vote for Kramer's Horsehide Belt Scabbard too... excellent OWB holster!

But then I would have to change my business name to "CLICK-STICK Holsters". That's not nearly as catchy.what do you mean? it will still go click everytime!....lol
To the OP: There are some good IWB holsters for 4" revolvers, but most of them ride pretty high. Check out CABO Holsters and Simply Rugged Holsters to see some examples.

I'm not sure if the GP is comparable to the S&W K or J frame, but give "Blackhawk!" holsters a call. If their SERPA holster fits the GP, you can get it and attach the included paddle, & adjust it for cross draw carry-all for around 50 bucks!

This thread is wonderfully off topic now isn't it?
When a member posts a serious question and is requesting specific information in an area of the forum that is not in Humor and Off Topic ~ then please try to refrain from just making a funny comment in the thread.
That would be because they tend to "snowball" and then the entire thread gets goofed up.
At least help the member by providing a requested answer and then add a humorous comment to that.
Do not sidetrack the thread just for the sole purpose of sidetracking it.
Back on topic.
Thanks.

For my S&W, 2.5-inch, model 66, I find the Milt Sparks Summer Special ll does a great job. Comfortable, and conceals nicely.
