Default 4566 IWB holsters

I have a Theis IWB for my 4003, I have been thinking about getting a 4566 also.
Who here has a IWB holster for their 4566, and what is it, and how does it work?

Pics would be a plus!

My Galco King Tuk fitted to the SIG P226 fits my 4006, 4506 (both no dash and -1 models) as well as the 1006 perfectly. Would probably work just as well for the 4566 seeing as that's just a shorter variant of the 4506!

I have a Theis for my 1076. Fits all my 3rd generation Smith's just fine.

Hmmm maybe I'll try my 4003 Theis to see if it fits.

I've posted this many times, but Tim Thurner of TT Gunleather made me an awesome IWB for my 4014. A friend who has several high end 1911's and Sparks and Rosen holsters, and is a bit of an elitist when it comes to gear, (but is also frugal!) discovered TT Gunleather and their sister company Occidental Leather.

I really can't recommend TT Gunleather holsters enough. Fully custom, very quick turnaround for a custom holster, fit like butter the day I got it, and a year later looks like new and holds the gun perfectly, but still lets it draw out perfectly. It's the brown and black one in the photos. The other one is a Galco Cop model. Great holster, but not like the TT Gunleather.

My 1066 take the same holster as your 4566. I use a Comp-Tac Minotaur made for a Sig 220 and the fit is great. I would not ordinarily recommend using a kydex holster made for another pistol, but since I worked in a gun shop I could do some investigating. It is a suitable fit and the Minotaur conceals a large, heavy pistol quite nicely. Good luck!
