I’m looking for a chest holster for a Ruger 22/45 that will accommodate the pistol with a silencer attached. I’d like to be able to carry it when out hiking. Any reccomendations ?

This is the one I've been eyeing. Well, I need the one that can accommodate a light too.  

Here's the standard one.

I just had one built from Gunfightersinc. It's nice, but it is very awkward to draw due to the barrel length with the suppressor attached.  I'm probably going to get a TacSol Integral upper.

I needed one for a grab and go varmint and pest rig. A big ole universal nylon holster for large frame, long barreled revolvers works perfectly. Not high speed low drag but it does what it is supposed to and I already had it laying around.

Concealed but fast and easy draw:  Ozark Trail 9L Unisex Adult/Teen Sling Pack Polyester Messenger Bag from Walmart, $12.97.

It works very well, as if it were designed for suppressed carry.

I did see a very close twin of this, made for concealed carry, $99.99.  But, too much padding made it slower, less easy to draw from.

A Mark IV Tactical suppressed fits very well.  Same for a small 9mm with 8" suppressor.
