Wow, I like that. Would they have one for a model 85 Taurus UL?

John, those came from a member here Blademan21. They are very good. Also Stephen A. Camp has posted a review of some .44 speed strip that are fairly new. Tuff Products Revolver Quick Strips: Initial Observations

Kevin, George, so do you guys wear the Larado daily? Like it? I like the idea of being able to take it off quick to go into a resturant that also serves alcohol (South Carolina) or Post Office etc. I ordered a brown one and need to add a belt to my order on Monday. I'm hoping my permit and holster will arrive about the same time. Wife has taken ownership of my paddle holster..she is happy....if Mama aint happy nobodys happy.

I wear a Laredo daily and have for a couple of years. I don't carry the revolver daily. I have currently 4 Laredo holsters that I use and one for a Colt Mustang that I am selling. For a while I carried a S&W 1066 10mm in a Laredo, my next EDC was an EAA Witness in a Laredo. My current EDC and I suspect my last for a while is a CZ 75BD with Crimson Trace laser grips. I just got the holster on Tuesday. Photos are here New Leather from K&D Holsters.

I carry the Charter Arms Bulldog when I wear a sport coat or a suit coat. The semis are too long and if you reach into your pants pocket the coat rides up above the bottom of the holster. The Bulldog is short enough that the holster just reaches an inch or so below the belt and doesn't show when the coat is moved.

I don't like slide on holsters because I change from my Dockers to Propper Tac pants when I come home. My Proppers already have belt in them and the holster goes right above a belt loop. The Laredo just snaps on and I am ready to go. I have owned a few paddle holsters, but they do not give the support that the Laredo does.

George, the beaver on the Larado looks great! Nice leather. It is good to hear that you use the Larado daily and like it. Thanks. It's going to be a long 6 weeks!

I'm thinking of picking one up for my SP101....I have an Alessi CQC/S which is the same style and I love it...I just don't want to wait 6+ months for another...how long is the wait for K&D? also, are the snap wings molded inward to help bring the holster tight against the body like on the CQC/S?

Great holster that I highly recommend!!
Then fully seated the barrel stick out beyond the edge of the holster?

Nice picture but it's NOT mine.
I'm not usually fond of OWB holsters for conceal carry, although this is the slickest variant I've ever seen! Yeah, it could actually change my mind.

I wear it every chance I get - conceals great under a golf vest or jacket. Here is another one Kevin made for me - trimmed in Ostrich. His Laredo's are my favorite.
