J Frame IWB Recomendation

I need some help finding a comfortable Iwb holster for my 442 for when I don't want to pocket carry. I would prefere leather, but would consider other options.

My main requirements are

- comfort
- very stable
- open top ( no thumb break )
- preferable available ( don't want to wait 6 to 12 weeks or more )

Thanks,
Chris

Go to the Galco website Chris. Several there will work for your J frame. Good holsters, usually in stock and shipped promptly.

Take a look at this, Galco on closeout sale (there's one for a J frame)...

I see what looks like a Galco Scout here. I have a Scout for one of my guns. I think they work for a J frame as well. The Scout would be a good IWB choice that wouldn't break your bank.

What ever you look for...Id highly recommend an offset loop IWB....

Its the design that takes the chosen method of belt attachment away from the bulk of the gun ie the cylinder. It will make a much more comfy and in most cases, a more stable carry platform.

Shoot well.....Eric

I've got the CompTac 2 o'clock - I got it about a week after placing the order. Its comfortable, secure, and fast. Cost about 40-50 bucks IIRC. Take a look if you're interested in something in Kydex.

Andrews MacDaniel is my choice and my next holster order. Off set loop and adjustable to boot.

Those look good but I'm wondering about the turnaround time. You see at my age it really matters.
