J Frame Snub Owners: What is your favorite EDC Holster?

[Data]

Just a question of curiosity here ...

What is your favorite everyday carry method & holster?

As for myself, hands down, I love the (front) pocket carry method & holster. Certainly, my Scandium / Ti 360 PD makes it an obvious choice due to its ultra-light weight and compactness.

Albeit, my S&W 360 PD has an exposed hammer spur and you would think it's a hindering feature for pocket carry, but I have overcome this issue through daily training and drilling myself to death to block the hammer spur with my drawing hand's thumb.

As a result, I now have a draw that is smooth and consistent; however, I do believe that a well-designed holster will help mitigate drag and enable you to have a smooth draw.

My favorite holster is the Mika Pocket Holster. It works extremely well as there is virtually no hang-up when drawing the spurred revolver from the pocket. I am probably the in the minority here, as I prefer the SA/DA snub over the DA-only snub. There are many reasons for this, but I am sure that I am one of the very few who do.

That's a Galco nylon or similar material rig that I have carried for years. I have tried a variety of other holsters and always found them too large or stiff inside my pocket, especially leather pocket holsters.

But ask me again in a couple of weeks, after my Mika pocket holster arrives. I do think my answer will have changed.

BUT!

When I carry my Walther CCP (alternate EDC; no picture of that holster) in a pocket it goes into a Remora pocket holster. That's an excellent fit plus, if I am inclined, I can discretely take the whole thing out of my pocket and turn it into an IWB in a matter of seconds. It stays right where I put it!

I've been using a Galco horsehide for about 8 years. Bought it used on the forum. It is finally showing some wear: the rough hide is getting shiny at the widest point on the cylinder. Clings to the pocket, not the gun. I think it will outlast me. For the rare times I carry IWB I like a Backwoods 101 clip. Either works well with my M642 or M38.

Hugs tight. Very convenient during certain "sit down" situations when you're out & about.

For walking the Dog it's Cargo shorts carry on hot summer days.

Otherwise I dress around my 3913.

Daily a SoftArmor #3 (a Sticky type that works for pocket or, in a pinch, IWB).

Long drives or hiking, a Master’s Holsters OWB crossdraw (got on ebay).

I’ve always carried a J-Frame in my off side front pocket in a Uncle Mikes Pocket Holster.

EZ-pocket carry......................many colors

It's a Desantis super fly in my front right pocket for my 442 and model 36 and sometimes I'll carry one of my 3 in model 36s that way too.

 

[mgriffin]

My 442 in Uncle Mike's #4. Always in my right front pocket of my jeans.

For pocket...Aholster

For AIWB...Harry's Holster "Icon"

 

[Baxter6551]

Kramer is excellent OWB. DeSantis speed scabbard is good also for less money.

I pocket carry and it depends on what kind of pants I have on. For suit pants I use the Mika round; for Levis the Mika square; and for large pocket cargos I use the DeSantis Nemesis.
