Inside the waist holster???
I am looking for the most comfortable inside the waist holster for my S&W CS9 & 3913. I have looked at a lot of different holsters and I was wanting some input from froum members who carry these pistols. I don't CCW except on the weekend when I go out, so it is hard to get used to carrying concealed. Now I usually carry Kel Tec 380 because it is so easy to put in my pocket.

I carry my 6946 in a UBG Canute IWB holster and can carry all day in comfort. It is a well made holster and he has pretty fast turn around times for making his holsters. It retains the gun well and holds the gun close to the body. I have one for my 4586 too. Don't carry it as often because of the weight difference. The 6946 is the same size as your 3913 except it's a double stack.

The best, for me, is a DeSantis pocket holster.
Yup, designed as a pocket holster (who besides Andre the Giant could pocket carry a 3913?? ) it is smooth nylon on the inside, and a sticky neoprene type material on the outside.
It slips right over the kidney IWB, and STAYS THERE!! No walking or slipping. Stays put. At $15 it is cheap too. Better constructed than the Uncle Mikes cheap IWB's too, IMO.
Only downside is reholstering takes two hands. you have to spread the top to get the muzzle in on reholstering. Not a concern of mine, but it may be too you.
In a leather, expensive IWB I use a Bianchi. Fits the CS-9, 3913, and 4516. Good luck! Regards 18DAI.

I am looking for a good CCW holster for my 3913 as well...and while I don't have one yet, a lot of folks recommend the Crossbreed Supertuck. Have you looked at them?

I am a big fan of High Noon Holsters. I use the tuckable IWB holsters everywhere I go and never had an issue.

I've got 3 holsters ordered for my 3913 that should all arrive by the end of the week. A Blade Tech UCH, an AKJ Concealco, and a new model from DeSantis called the Sof-Tuck. I'll review them ASAP.

For the last 12-13 years I have carried (daily) a 3913 in a Galco soft suede thumbbreak IWB holster. I think the model # is IWB246. Was not very expensive and I only notice it when I do not have it on!

I've carried for 40 years and have tried alot of holsters. I have two boxes of ones that didn't work for me. What works for one person may not work for the next. Finding the perfect one, takes time and too much money. Always carry in the same spot, I learned this the hard way many years ago.
I always carry strong side and when the perp
pulled a knife demanding my money. I went for my off duty model 60, NO gun! I was wearing a new shoulder holster. I threw my wallet at him and then went for the 60. It ended well I got my money back and he went to jail. Don't move your gun around. when the SHTF you don't want pat yourself down looking for your gun. The best IWB I ever have used and still do is a Blade-tech very thin, very fast, very comfortable. Wear it just behind your hip.

I carry my 3913 in a Cross Breed super tuck and have for about three months. I won't carry in any other holster. Like Fisco above, I have boxes of others and the Cross Breed just made them all obsolete. After eight hours of carry I still don't know I have it on. Cross Breed is really worth checking out, I think you look good in one.

My 3913 rides in a Kramer #3 IWB. VERY comfortable, extremely well made. Another one I am going to try from fellow member is Lobo Gunleather. looks to be well thought out and very well made as well.
I am not a great fan of the hybrid holsters....I like good leather. My Kramer is horsehide..
might work for you as well.
