colt defender

gimp · September 9th, 2008, 08:00 PM

Hi,

Just purchased a colt defender and I'm looking for suggestions on a good concealable IWB holster. I dress business casual for work...slacks, button down, etc, weekends are jeans. Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks

A good choice for a smaller revolver is pocket carry. A Rough Out pocket holster or Tuck Clip/Snap would work well for your needs and nothing saying you should not have a couple of options. Even Smartcarry would work.

Hope this give you a couple ideas.

Any rig for a three inch 1911 should work, personally I'd opt for OWB carry as the defender is very easy to conceal and sometimes you run into issues with a short barreled, top heavy pistol wearing an IWB unless you spring for the $$ and buy the best like a VMII, Incognito Deluxe, etc. Don't think I'd pocket carry a 1911, too many controls to catch on clothing! Brand new VMII on FleaBay for a 3inch that closes pretty quickly, it's at a real good price currently FWIW!

I purchased a Crossbread for my Colt, works great with a vest.

Congratulations on the Defender. My choice would be IWB most like a MTAC.
