Comfy IWB Holster for 3913?

[kbm6893]

The 3rd gen's have everything I want in a pistol. Manual safety, mag disconnect, and hammer fired. I generally carry it in a Desantis pancake holster, but that occasionally becomes exposed as reach for something o bend down. I have a cheap nylon Uncle Mikes IWB holster for it, but it is not comfortable. I want to carry more often like I used to, but it needs to be comfortable. I almost bought a Bodyguard .380 the other day, but .380 ammo is expensive and I'd prefer to stick with 9MM. I'm even thinking of going to the Shield, just because it is lighter and smaller, and every ounce counts. Is there an IWB holster for the 3913 that is actually comfortable? I carry at the three o clock position.

Mine rides in a Kramer #3 IWB, sometimes a Bianchi 3S, and more often in a Brommeland. Lots of choices out there...Lobogunleather does a great job as well.

Decide what you really want or need in materials, features, etc and then buy the highest quality holster and sturdy belt that you can afford...it WILL reward you many times over.

PS. holsters for a Sig 239 many times fit like they were made for a 3913....

Try a Lobo offset clip....very comfy. Ray can probably put a loop on it if you don't like clips...

I've heard Lobo is top notch. When you wear them, does the gun bother you, or is it almost like it's not there?

I have to level with you...a gun never feels like it's not there in your pants. There are levels of comfort...from "okay" to "can't wait to get this thing off." As for bothering me, a gun never bothers me unless I leave it home. Order the holster, find the best spot on your belt for you, and wear it...you will get used to it. But if you think you are going to put it on and feel nothing, you are kidding yourself. As the old saying goes, guns are supposed to be comforting, not comfortable...but a 3913 in a well made custom holster coupled with a decent belt and pants with enough room for the gun, should be comforting without being too uncomfortable....

I use a Sticky Holster for my Glock 27 for IWB carry. Very comfortable and you can move it up or down or side to side to find the most perfect fit for your body style. They work great and hide well

Oops.....Forgot to ad that the sticky that fits the G27 will fit the 3913 as well......

I have a Tucker Gunleather Coverup Plus that fits my 6906, 908 and CS9 all with CT lasers. Tee shirts are not common in South Texas in the summer so I asked for a full sweat shield that covers the entire grip to prevent chafing my tender lovehandles. The Coverup Plus model is smooth out and lined. It has a tuckable single clip adjustable for height and cant. I tried a number of adjustments - each for a week or so - and when I found the right combination and position it just fell in to place.

This is the first holster I've ever had that I'm usually not even conscious of its presence - kind of like a broken in wallet that you miss when its not there.

After filling up a drawer with holsters, then almost filling a storage box, I'm not looking for another holster as I've found what I was looking for. That is, unless I find another weapon that I like better. <G>

I use a Bianch 100 for my CS45......

The Bianchi 100 size 11 is a good holster for almost all 3rd gen compacts with 3 1/2" or less barrels. I also use it for a CS45 or a non rail 4013TSW. The 3913 fit a little on the loose side, but when it inside your belt it snugs it up to work fairly good.

I use a bianchi 3S IWB leather and it very comfortable. But the most comfortable I have found is a Galco Summer Comfort IWB leather. It was $79 but I think it was worth the comfort. It is as close to not knowing it is there as possible. I use it for my SW 3913, 4513TSW and Sig p239. The Bianchi is a close 2nd. I carry at 4 o clock.

Crossbreed offers their supertuck for the 3913. I use one for a 457 and most times I forget that it is there.
