You should try a good quality pancake style holster. The best ones are made to hug the body very tightly and conceal the gun amazingly well, and most of them are offered with body shields/sweat panels to keep the gun away from your body. The really good ones from custom makers are made of stiff leather that won't collapse when you draw the gun, making re-holstering a non-issue.

If you want something fairly quickly, I highly recommend Kramer horsehide or Mitch Rosen Expressline holsters. If you're not in a hurry then there's a world of good options out there. Good luck!
Now with you're saying pancake do you mean the wide ones that lay against the body? (Paddle style?) Let me know, I'm looking at the Mitch Rosen's and don't see any with a sweat shield? Let me know here or send me a PM, thanks.Also, can you give me some direction on a high quality holster? Thanks!!
