Paddle Holster

I recently bought a Galco paddle holster for a snub nosed 38. It may seem stupid, but does the plastic paddle go inside the pants or outside.
Thanks,

I think it depends on the paddle. The one I have from Blackhawk is designed to go between belt and pants. The Fobus I have seen is for inside the pants

I have a Galco paddle. The paddle is designed to go inside the pants. I find that the Galco rides too high, and tends to let the gun go away from the body and does not lay close enough for good concealment.

Mine is for a M60 3".

Regards,
Jerry

My Galco paddle holster goes inside the pants, and I think most would fit that way.

I have the same holster, it goes inside the pants. I just gave mine to my wife, she likes it. If Mama aint happy...nobody is happy! Good reason to order a H&D Larado for my 442 rev.
