I just picked up a s&w model 66-4.
I'm looking for an iwb holster for it. I'm thinking I would like one where the cylinder rides just above the belt. What do you recommend? |

I carry my 2.5" in a Blade-Tech Nano & love it; they make it for a 4" but the cylinder does not ride above the belt line with them.

Can I ask, why do you want it to ride so high? |

I'm not dead set on having it ride that high. I just thought it might be more comfortable because the cylinder is fairly wide. I am open to all suggestions.
It's a 4 inch barrel. Those privateers looks awesome! |

Back when real lawmen carried revolvers, I really liked the Bianchi Pistol Pocket for IWB carry with a 4 inch. The leather was easy on you given all of the angles on the revolver. If it was blued, I'd look toward kydex, but with stainless, leather doesn't present a problem. As I near retirement, I appreciate the plastic fantasics. But I'll tell you there is one armed robbery suspect that is still alive because he surrendered when he saw the cylinder rotate as I staged the trigger......and they did swing nice when the bad guy got too close.

IWB Alien Gear 2.0 for my 4" S&W Model 65 worn at the 4 o'clock position here. Very comfortable sitting in automobile or on motorcycle. Superb concealment with good belt. I have used Alien Gear almost exclusively for my IWB carry of my wheel guns for for over a year with great results.

Those privateers looks awesome! Leather is going to make that too thick to carry for any more than a once in a while novelty carry. I suggest kydex always for IWB, leather is for carry rig picture threads. |
