Holster recommendations, Model 36 3 inch.

[otis24]

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!

I am not a fan of IWB, though I own a few. This Lobo holster is the most comfortable one I have ever used for a small frame revolver. This only has one belt clip, which is offset.

Is there a model number on the back of the holster?

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

I also have one for my Kimber Ultra Carry.

I will look at it when I get home this evening.

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.

I have a Chick Gaylord IWB that looks like it would fit. If I can find it and get it to hold still for a picture, I'll post a pic.

otis24, there is nothing but the maker’s mark on my holster. GOOGLE “Lobo Gun Leather” and this model is shown under the IWB models.

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"

 

[otis24]

Will the J frame .38 fit ok in a holster made for a Model 60?

 

[ColbyBruce]

A 60 is a J frame, so yes.

 

[crazyphil]

Otis24, I believe the model 60 is a J frame so it should fit. Of course
I can't guarantee it.

 

[ColbyBruce]

This is an alternative design by Bianchi you could try if you are not used to IWB carry.

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.

The Deluxe Thoroughbred Holster from MTR Custom Leather fits the bill.

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.
