A few years ago I got my hands on a 4513TSW, old LEO weapon, from family. Love it and carry it often, but I was looking to get a IWB holster for it, and am having little luck. I have a cheap universal holster, but not happy about how it rides, or the retention on it. I've looked and looked and can't find anyone who makes a fitted IWB holster, even talked to a few custom shops that say they can't even find a mold for it.

Anyone know of a shop that carries a 4513TSW holster or if a holster for another model would work well?

Thank you in advance.

The Bianchi Proffesional model 100 is made for the 4516 and fits my 4513TSW perfectly. The early 4513TSW is my favorite carry gun. I use the Bianchi with it often.

You might also look at MTR Leather website. He recently started making 4513TSW specific holsters. Both IWB and OWB. Hope this helps! Regards 18DAI

Edited to add: As I was getting ready for work tonight I realized I'd failed to mention my favorite IWB holster. The DeSantis Nemesis. I use one labeled for a Glock 19 with my 4513TSw. Fits like a glove. Holds the 4513TSW firmly and allows a fast presentation. Only drawback is reholstering. You must remove the Nemesis, place the pistol in it and reposition it IWB. I use the Nemesis 80%+ when using an IWB holster.

If you have a shop that carries leather holsters for Sigs, I'm finding my 2nd and 3rd Gen Smiths are fitting in Sig holsters. I have Galco and Milt Sparks IWB holsters for P220 Sigs from fullsize to compact that my 3906 and and Shorty 40 both fit.
 
I'll definition look into those. I would be OK with in the pocket.

Most of the time I carry, I'm around small children these days, and when I carry in a holster similarly to the bianchi. I've been trying to find a kydex or a hybrid so that I would have that extra retention, or just a kydex shell, I'm handy enough with leather I can build my own hybrid.
 
Try Glock 26/27 holsters. I carry a 26 on occasion and only carry IWB, but i do have a Blackhawk Sportster OWB holster that the 4516 fits...and it's a very snug fit because of the slide stop. If you choose a G26/27 holster, be sure that it has an open end like the Blackhawk does. My G26 IWB holster has a closed end, and because of that the longer 4516 won't seat all the way.

BTW...welcome to the forum!!!

edit...adding a pic to show how well it retains the S&W. I could not shake it out of the holster

I use a Bianchi 100 Professional (I ordered one to fit a S&W 6906). I originally purchased this holster to use with my 3913 but it works just as well for the 4013tsw.
 
Take a look at Versacarry. I got a leather OBW for my 3913 and one for my 1911. Love them. Excellent quality holster for the $40.
 
I hate rolling the dice on leather built for another model. Funny how people always say "fits like a glove". It usually never does. I believe I have an Aker IWB in my holster box made for the 4513tsw. let me check
 
Holster for 4513tsw

High Noon has fitted holsters (IWB) for your model. I have purchased holsters for my CS45 and my 4013tsw from them. Well made, and good quality.
