Bianchi Lighting J-Frame

ctr · February 22nd, 2009, 08:26 PM

I've used a pocket holster for some time and prefer it. But for those times when I want to carry OWB, well, it has been a long search. I think I have finally found a holster I like for the 637. The Bianchi Lightning. Picked one up over the weekend.

The strap is a REALLY tight fit - I think the holster was orginally made for the old wooden stock grips on Chief Special's. Perhaps Bianchi should change the manufacture to accomidate the newer rubber grips?

Anyway, the holster is still breaking in, but I really like it.

I've had one for 20 years, it's a nice holster. I used it for a taurus CH85 and now for my S&W340pd

I've not carried in any Bianchi leather in years. I think I still have an older Bianchi shoulder rig or two here.

The strap is stretching out, but it is gonna take several days for the fit to set in.

Still, it is a really nice holster, well made, for being a stock production item.
