What holster are you using for your Smith model 642 revolver?

[Bud11]

Ordered one today and will need to get a holster, as I plan to get my CCW. What are you guys using? Never had a small revolver before or carried one before. Have a Smith model 67 .38 revolver currently. Bud

Mika pocket holster made by Robert Mika. Outstanding and very reasonable. Good guy too.

People can see there's something in your pocket, but it doesn't look like a gun (this is what any decent pocket holster does).

Holds the 642 and a speed strip with five more rounds in a front pocket and breaks up the outline of the gun very effectively.

One caveat: it won't work with narrow front pockets. I like the Mika for those pants, but you lose the reload.

Pocket holster works well.

Custom Carry Concepts Quick Cover IWB. These are a low ride IWB made from a thinner than usual kydex for better comfort. Please note that CCC gets swamped with orders and to keep the waits reasonable he only takes orders a couple times a year. Be sure to contact them before using the online order system.

I've found that carrying a 642 IWB is a pain; it's like carrying a cue ball inside your belt line. For me, a 642 is best carried in my front pocket; if I'm going to carry something OWB I'd carry a bigger gun. As far as a pocket holster goes, I second the Mika. He's an ex LAPD officer who started making holsters. A lot of cops use his holsters for their back up guns.

Yup and yup.

No holster. I carry mine IWB like this:




Grip now changed to the Desantis Clip Grip. Same concept, though.
