M60-15 3"

[M E Morrison]

greetings,

I recently purchased one of these, after lusting over it for years!

Current problem: can't find any good holsters for it; I have searched on-line as well as this forum with no results.

Do I have to resort to a generic "one size fits all" nylon scabbard?

Are there any holsters that are open ended and I have to let that last 1" stick out?

Any help appreciated!

For regular belt carry I use this Simply Rugged pancake for 3,3 1/2 and 4 inch J frames
It does them all.

Lobo Gun Leather. Bought this from a forum member. Great holster. Not a "high ride" so it's stable and doesn't flop around. I highly recommend this one.

I've had Simply Rugged and Lobo rigs. Great choices, both!

I think just about every high end holster maker will make you a holster for a 3" Model 36/60 revolver

Call them on the phone and discuss what you want

Just because it is not pictured on a website does not mean that they can't make you one.

I did not know that - thank you!

For a traditional belt holster I have a nice Bianchi #5BHL Small Revolver that fits all my 3" J frames very nicely, 36, 37, 317, and 60-15.

for my 60-15 I got a Bianchi at Midway. They even had it in left handed.It rides high an very comfortable.

I was pleasantly surprised to discover that all the holsters for my 3" Kimber K6S also fit my new 3" SP101 in .327 Fed Mag like a glove. As a lefty, that was a big help to my wallet. The holsters include a DeSantis Paddle, a Simply Rugged pancake, and a nice OWB from MD Whitefield out of Texas.

The 3" M-60 might be close enough that you could go that same route. Note that all of these are open top, which is my preference, even when I have a hammer spur to secure a strap.

My 60-15 rides in a Milt Sparks VMII.

Perfect fit and all-day comfortable.

I have a 36-6 and a 60-4, same gun, except in .38 rather than 357 mag, little shorter cylinder.

I'm a Roy Baker pancake lover and I found one of Baker's holsters for a three inch J frame. Works great, but not made since the early 1980's.

Its the upper left in this photo.

+1 on the Lobo Gun Leather. Good holsters.

A "what type of holster" for this particular handgun seems to come up surprisingly often. Or perhaps I'm easly surprised.

Anyway, I use a Galco Stinger, which is a catalogue item:

Howdy. I've got a Silver Dollar Pancake made by Simply Rugged for my 60-15 Pro Series.

I think that they are great j frames for carry. I load mine with the Speer Gold Dot Short Barrel .357 rounds.

One thing that I found with my 60-15, keep an eye on all the screws after going to the range. They like to loosen up, especially the screw that holds the sight assembly on the frame and the cylinder release screw. A little clear fingernail polish will usually take care of it. Enjoy your new revolver!

not surprised - I spent several hours looking at various catalogs with no real clue - perhaps they should be a little more descriptive in their text description

+2 for Lobo. I have one of their slides and one of the pancakes for my 60-15 and they both carry very well.

That 3" full-lug barrel on your 60-15 has been around for quite a while now, with several models going back to before the lock coming out, so there are quite a few options available. All of the major mass-producing holster companies have at least a couple models, as do many of the custom makers. I get many holsters from Ebay and I recommend that as a source, too. Like everything else on the 'bay, availability is up and down all the time, but you'd be surprised at what you can find over the course of a couple weeks.
Speaking of Ebay, there's a company on there called MASC Holsters that seems to be putting out a decent product. Their pancake-style runs around $50-60 and they also make a paddle holster. Stick to the sellers with hundreds or thousands of sales and you won't go wrong. Good luck!
