Hi,
Finally picked up a 327 PC 2” w/8 round cylinder. Had a chance to put 100 rounds through it over the weekend, and so far I love it. I’m now looking for holsters; both AIWB, and OWB (with a thumb break) for woods carry. Any recommendations, or suggestions are welcome. Thanks!

The Lobo Enahnced Pancake is a great AWIB holster with it's offset retention clip..do have to wonder, however, how much of a bulge an 8 round cylinder would make.
 
I don't have a sexy 327PC like you do, but if I did, here are a couple that
I would take a serious look at:

For the IWB I would look at the Desantis Summer Heat.

For the OWB I would have Doc Barranti make me this one
shown in the picture below. With the TA screw you don't
need a retention strap. If you need to wear a jacket or shirt
over it, the dog ear will keep the hammer spur from shredding
your clothing.

The Lobo Enhanced Pancake is a OWB design, not appendix carry and not IWB.

Cylinder of the 327 is just about 1.75" in diameter and about the same length. Inside the waistband it would probably feel about like a golf ball. The combination of large frame, large cylinder and tiny barrel is likely to present some retention problems, so a thumb-break or retention strap should be considered for security.

For the best combination of comfort, accessibility, security, and concealment I would suggest the Enhanced Pancake Model with thumb-break option. A nice smooth leather lining would be much gentler on the applied finish of the 327's alloy frame.

Have a look at the Lobo Gun Leather website, then contact the owners (Mark Fedders and family in Ely, Minnesota). Very few holster makers offer much for the 2" N-frames (or 2.5", 2.625", 2.75", 3", or 3.5" either), but most of the Lobo product line can be made for an exact fit.
 
I have a owb kydex holster made by a local company. I also bought a gallon combat master for a s&w 325 i believe and it fits fine. There's a little empty space below the barrel. Im still looking for other options too

Groo here
I have a 327PC also.
The gun calls out for a shoulder rig or a Vest carry.
Mine is a Wyoming Traders.
The holster is more like a pouch ,carries many types of guns.

Thanks for the suggestions. Still searching. I like that Barranti!

Lobo makes beautiful gun leather. Thanks for the suggestions.
 
I appreciate everyone’s input. For IWB I have a Kaos concealment Kydex 327 PC Guardian on the way. For OWB and woods carry, I ordered a lined Lobo Model 1 dual carry with a thumb break. Should have the Kaos in the next week or two but won’t see the leather for another 10 weeks or so.
 
Do you still carry your 327PC? If so, can you share your experience please. It's 2025, and I think that the options are still about the same. I would really prefer AIWB, around the 1-2 O'Clock position. How many rounds have you fired, and any problems? Thanks in advance!
