I'm not a big fan of shoulder holsters but I have used one, still have it actually, from El Paso Saddlery. They make 3 or 4 different models so I am not sure which one it is at this point but I can comfortably carry my 2.5" M686+ in it and on the opposite side it has a leather case for a speedloader. I used to carry it when I was feral hog hunting down by the Rio Grande because that kept the revolver on the side away from my rifle. If I ever get back into the woods I'd carry that gun that way again. As a daily thing it doesn't work for me.
I did conceal it under a jacket or a vest depending on the weather but that was more for protection against bushes and branches than for hiding the gun. Nobody cared about the gun; we were required to have a sidearm on at all times due to the nature of what or who we might encounter in that neck of the woods.
I simply can't abide ankle holsters; the only place I see them as useful is seated in a car. But I still prefer belt carry there.
Strong side IWB or OWB is my choice. Cross draw for driving is okay, too.
