IWB Holster for Walther PPS

chickdiver · July 2nd, 2008, 01:46 PM

Does anyone have suggestions for an IWB holster for the Walther PPS? I have a Crossbreed Supertuck, but I find that it does not fit me particularly well. First off, being female and rather small, the overall width of the Supertuck is just too much, secondly the overall length of the Supertuck is too large as well (I'm a whopping 5'2", so I don't have a great deal of torso length).

I am looking for something pretty narrow (like the Comp-tac Infidel- which they don't make for the PPS)- ideally something that could be worn in an "appendix carry" position. Since there are so few holsters being made for this pistol, I'm open to leather or kydex, though I would prefer leather.

I would especially appreciate input from some of the other women around here.

Here are two sites here. I've tried neither as I already have a Crossbreed, but I do know what you mean by it being a little too large (I'm 5'6"). BTW, I'm not a woman, but have been accused of such by my friends, LOL;).

Little Bear Custom Holsters - Welcome to Little Bear Custom Holsters. My name is Dave Galloway and I hope I can build you the holster you want. I understand what it is like to want a custom holster but it is either too expensive or the wait is VERY l

He is local to you in Florida and does a great job making holsters. They fit very well and i believe you will have no problem with one. He has a custom holster he made that is narrow and as i was reading your post i was thinking that this may be right for you. Fast turn around time and great guy to deal with.

This is one for a PPS you pick the color ect...

I got mine from Earl's...Mine is the IWB with a slight forward cant.

I got mine from Greg Peters (Peters Custom Holsters Home). He's a shooter at my local range, and did an exceptional job...it's the nicest holster I've ever had (previous experience includes Galco, DeSantis, and Milt Sparks).

About the thinnest and most compact leather IWB holster I've found is the Milt Sparks "Watch Six". The only drawback is that it's not as easy to reholster with it, since it does not have a reinforced mouth. For carry with my Glock 26 it's been great.

I'd suggest you see if Milt Sparks is making them for the PPS.

You might want to contact Little Feather Leatherworks and see if his LFL120 is available for the PPS. I have two of these (Kahr PM-9 & Sig P245) and the quality is very nice. His web site says usual turn-around is about 30 days and that's right on the mark for the ones I ordered.

I have a UBG IWB holster for my springfield XD9 sub. I have been very impressed with his work.

His prices are pretty reasonable and I believe he is making one for the PPS. I have been looking for one too as I have a PPS on layaway.
Good luck
