Recommendations for a leather OWB holster for a 686-1 Snub Nose? I'm sure it's been asked before but my search skills are spotty at best. I bought this 686 pre-lock for my bride as she's so good with a 686-5 4". I can swap stocks so just looking for a holster for the new addition. As she's going on a road trip next month, her 15-4 is a bit bulky even though she's dead on with it. The idea is better concealment, even if she doesn't wear it but carries in ther "purse/bag". Thank you in advance for:

Any suggestions gratefully accepted.

Hello. I am a big fan of Simply Rugged Holsters. With that being said, if the holster is also going to be carried in a purse, it would not be my first choice since it is a pancake style holster with extended belt loops. I would lean towards an El Paso Saddlery #2 holster or a Bianchi 5BHL. The single belt loop and thumb snap would be a better choice for her duel application. Best wishes!

TY SIX. Much appreciated

I agree with Sixgun100 on the Simply Rugged pancake holster for the 686 snubby. When I wear any of my revolvers or pistols with a Simply Rugged holster with a very well made Simply Rugged leather belt, I almost forget I am wearing a weapon. I have six Simply Rugged pancake holsters, I am sold on the price and the quality.

The wife doesn't like the pancake style. She likes the Don Hume(s) I have for my Colts. 721 OT model. Nothing fancy, just utilitarian for her tastes. I have a few Hume OT 721(s) all for pistol, none for revolver much less a 686 Snubbie.
