Who makes an IWB holster that is compatible with a S&W Model 36 3 inch? I prefer a model with two attachment clips. Leather or leather kydex. Thanks in advance!
 
Model 36 another Chief's Special. The holster shown here was made
for a Detective Special with 3" barrel. My Agent is shown in it with a
2" barrel. My friend Red Nichols told me the extra inch will keep it
from sagging outward, which it does. The holster shown was made by
Mr. Baker "the pancake maker". Check on ebay because I don't think
Baker is still in business. Sorry, it is obviously not an IWB.

That is the "Offset Belt Clip" model from Lobo. I'm a fan. I use one for a J-Frame and use one as a quick alternative to a Milt Sparks VM2 for a small auto.

The Milt Sparks is mentioned earlier in this thread as well. Probably my favorite IWB holster for autos. I've never tried one for a revolver.
 
I have a Lobo Leathers for both my 3" J-Frames and my 3" 10-5, like ColbyBruce showed, love them.

Lobo's are custom ordered, no model number. "3" IWB, offset clip, horse hide (my fav) or cowhide"

I tried the double clip thing but found it took up too much real estate on my belt and major overkill for a j-frame. One clip works fine even for my heavier guns. Two Lobos. Ray made the auto for my P2000 but fits my M&P perfectly.

How about this Milt Sparks Versa Max II shown with 3” Model 60-15…

I also have one for my Kimber Ultra Carry.

This is what I ordered for my model 36 snub. Can't give it a review yet as I wait for it but I've heard nothing but great things here.

I carry in a smart carry for deep concealment until then.
 
Good to hear….

We’ll look forward to your thoughts and comments (in about 7-8months?)….

True, but quality is worth the wait. He could always use something more easily purchased until then was my point if he decided on Milt.
