I know this has been discussed before but in a search I could only bring up three threads about it and some links within were no good anymore. I'm looking for a holster, any holster OWB or IWB for my 4516-1. I've read whereby the holsters by some companies for the Sig P229 will work but the P229 comes in 9mm and 40 S&W flavors and Milt Sparks show two different catalog numbers depending on whether is the 9 or 40/357Sig. Any points to other threads or current recommendations appreciated.

Col,
For my Shorty 45 I use an IWB from Bagmaster.com that I really like. It holds a spare mag and they wear really well. Won't mark up the finish either. My piece is the same size as yours.

I carry my 4516-1 in a belt scabbard made for a Sig 229 and it fits almost perfectly. I am confident that almost any leather holster intended for a non-railed Sig 229 will work fine. I'm not sure about the Kydex ones or those with mechanical retention devices like the Blackhawk Serpa.

I'm not really a Kydex fan or I'd try the Crossbreed. I'm more into leather and the Versa Max would fit the bill but as I indicated I don't know which would be best for the 4516 in that they show two different ones depending on whether it was the 9mm or 40 cal for the 229. I don't know why that would make a great deal of difference.

I have a couple for sale. I'm a lefty and my 4516 came with a couple right handed holsters. I'll accept just about any reasonable offer.

I carry mine in a "Canute" from Ugly Bald Guy holsters. It's an awesome holster, very comfy and durable.
