I have been carrying my Model 13, 3 inch in a DeSantis Speed Scabbard for about seven months. Because of the manner in which the holster distributes the weight of the revolver, I have found it very comfortable. It pulls the weapon into your waist and conceals well beneath a suit, jacket, sweater, loose top, etc. I believe in Murphy's Law and so prefer a thumb-snap for security.

No to preach, but if you are going to carry a revolver, or for that matter a semi-automatic pistol, give thought to carriage of extra ammunition in the form of a speed-loader, speed strip, or pouch. This subject is good for another thread.

There are many good holsters out there as evidenced by some of the replies you have received so far. In the end though, you will have to define your mission and the purchase the best holster and ancillary items that you can.

Good luck.
