Anyone know about a good ankle holster for a S&W 649, the Bodyguard variant with the shrouded hammer? Regular thumb-snaps won't work with these hump-backed monstrosities! (Just kidding, I LOVE my hump-backed monstrosity!)
I currently carry it in a weak-side body-armor holster but it is rapidly wearing out the velcro and elastic on the armor straps, so I guess I gotta find another option. I'm considering a belly-band holster with the band under the armor and the holster poking out on the weak side where the armor doesn't cover, which is right where it rides now. When worn with a zippered shirt, it gives good access for your strong hand but weak hand access kinda sucks. Since the holster and weapon ride in your armpit, it conceals pretty well, too. Trouble is, I can't find a good quality belly band, just the Uncle Mikes crap. Any ideas, or ideas for other carry locations and methods besides ankle carry? I have tried ankle carry before and didn't care for it. Better access, granted, but with my chicken legs, an ankle holster prints pretty badly, too. Thanks for the help and sorry for the thread hijack. I'd planned on starting a thread to ask this then found this one.
