Default Very low riding 686 3” appendix holster?

My 686 does not get the carry time it deserves due to my current holster selection/weather. The gun is quite comfortable and easy to acess (for me) riding in a very low appendix position. I am talking even some of the grip is covered by the belt. I can sit, stand, walk, jog, no problem. Does anyone make an appendix holster that rides this low for the 686? I will cut down a 4” holster if need be. I have the galco summer comfort and it rides WAY too high for me to conceal appendix.

Try Lefty at Bell Charter Oak holsters. I have one he made me for a K frame, I believe he makes it for the L as well.

In my experience the "go to guy" for low ride IWB carry rigs is Lefty at Bell Charter Oak. No one I know of can offer anything that compares.
