Low Riding OWB holster?

Does anyone make a low riding OWB holster for a Ruger SP101 snub? I've looked around but it seems all are high riding holster that put the gun above the belt line,I'm looking for one that puts the gun right at the belt. Say maybe in this case a holster that keeps the gun's cylinder at the belt line,what about the galco concealable is this a low ride or a high ride OWB holster?

Being short-waisted this is a common concern for me as well. I didn't have any luck with the Galco or Desantis holsters I tried on.
Take a look at Simply Rugged Holsters, I ordered a Sourdough pancake for my 686+ and had Rob adjust it to ride low and added more cant. Perfect fit, rides exactly where I need it to and hides the 686+ easily under a t-shirt or sweatshirt.
The bonus, it was here in a little over two weeks.

I'm always recommending Fist...call them...they will make what you want...
Find what you like...then decide HOW you want it...

For an excellent holster at a very fair price and about 5 weeks delivery time take a look at the Fist #12 or #7. I have two #12s and the muzzle clears about at the top of the belt. I have not seen the #7, but it must be lower still.

HOLSTERS

I think the Fist holsters are a best buy for revolvers.

Jerry

Bianchi and Safriland (at least) both have holsters that fit this description.
