Anyone carry a Model 60?

[feralmerril]

I carried a model 60 I bought new about 1970 for over 30 years just in my front right pants pocket with no holster. I had bought a model 36 hammer and had the spur cut off and top flat checked so I could carefully cock it if wanted. I lost it when my truck was stolen. I then went to a old model 40 hammerless. To me, a 2 inch snub is for the pocket. I do have a seldom used model 34 2" that I have holsters for but I just havent got into packing it over a couple times so far. I also have a 3" model 36 that I occasionaly OC with a leather pancake style.

I use this one I got from the Dillon catalog for about $15 if I rember right. It is used a lot for about 10 years now. I can forget its on.

Hey Round, that's how the Galco Tuck-n-go works - so you can tuck your shirt over the stocks and have it held tight by the clip. I like that style best.

I have the DeSantis Summer Heat. Rides well not super snug fit on gun, but I think I will never see a problem with that.

A Model 60 in a Bianchi "Professional"works well for me...

Federal NyClads, Pachmayr, and quality Bianchi.

Them there be marks of a pro.

I love my Model 60 and especially now that the weather is scorching hot. I have a IWB Safariland holster and it shrouds the weapon nicely and has enough material to keep the hammer from poking into your sides. I can wear it with a belt or with out as long as the shirt covers your weapon. My Uncle Mike's is also a good alternative that is cooler and more flexible as you bend and move when driving or lounging.

What's the model, or the holster name?

I carry mine in a DeSantis IWB...shrouds the hammer and is very comfortable..

I'm glad to see this thread, for I too would like a proper holster for my sweet 60-4. !0 o'clock position, I,think, so I can get to it while in the car. Maybe not, 'cause I'd hate to give it up for having shot the BG that wanted my wheels.

On a recommendation from a couple here, I just ordered a Sideguard Minimal snap for AIWB. Unfortunately, you will have to wait three months for my review although considering this is a four year old thread, I suspect you have figured it out by this time.

Don't overlook the fact that SMITH AND WESSON sells some really nice holsters for the J-Frame.

I don't carry my Model 60 much, but when I do...

I just traded a buddy of mine for an Urban Carry holster for my 340PD it works better than pocket carry for me I'm always walking or getting in out of truck check em out on you tube

It's not as fast as they show on line but it's nice

But you can't beat an out side the waistband for comfort and quick draw think about it the more concealment you have the harder it is to reach

I usually pocket carry my J-frames in DeSantis Nemesis holsters. For holster carry on the belt, my favorites are either a Bianchi 55L Lightening or a DeSantis Speed Scabbard. Neither holster is very fast, but neither am I. The DeSantis is about as close as you can get to a full flap holster, and works well for me. I also like the Ken Null shoulder holsters. They are very light weight, and easy to keep clean. They have a proprietary draw stroke, so you have to practice using it.

Regards,

Dave

I carry a model 60 everyday, I have 2 iwb holsters. milt sparks vm2 and the other tuller holster, I had him make it without the reinforced mouth. its a little thinner that way and his holsters sit a bit lower.

I often Carry a model 60-7 IWB in a Older DeSantis Holster I purchased on eBay

I carry a 60-15 3 inch with Pro Series Grips in a Milt Sparks IWB Vera Max 2. After 4 months, it is really starting to break in good.

I called them directly and they made it custom to my specifications. Not cheap however...

I had them verify that it could handle the 3 inch with rear adjustable Target Sights. They stated that it was good that I mentioned Target Sights. Not sure if they made it any differently though.
