Default Holster Suggestion For a 6 1/2" S&W 25-2

Anyone know who makes a good quality leather (russet/brown) holster for a S&W 25-2 with a 6 1/2" bbl. Standard right hand carry or crossdraw. Strap with snap. Just need something for "woods- bumming". Thanks.

Preacher, lots of good holsters for you application.
For 6” and longer for woods bumming or hunting I’m fond of my Milt Sparks crossdraw. Mine doesn’t have a strap, but has a screw adjustment for tightness. Mine is for a 6 1/2” barrel and I use it for 6” too.
I like crossdraw so I can sit in a truck or ride a horse. Also out of the way if you are carrying a rifle. Just my 2cents. 😎

I'm with you on the crossdraw SS336. And for the same reasons. Hardly ever carry any other way when up at our cabin or in the woods.

I got this one for my 6" 686+
It's not a concealment holster but has belt slots for strong side and crossdraw. Good sturdy holster.

ETA: oops, saw your preference for a snap strap. Check this one out first of the two...

Galco makes a strongside/crossdraw holster available in black, tan or Havana brown.

DAO Strongside/Crossdraw Belt Holster

If you can live with a thumb break retention holster, Triple K also makes a strongside/ crossdraw holster:

#440 Lightning Strong Side/Crossdraw For Revolvers - Triple K

And if you want to really protect your gun, Triple K also has a flap holster:

#17 Hunter Flap Holster - Triple K
