Best pocket holster for "J" frame .38?

[vmaam]

I have a S&W 642 .38 snubbie and need some advice on a good pocket holster. Something comfortable for wearing with pleated chinos.

I use the Kramer pocket holster with my 632 J-Frame Smith. The profile looks like a wallet. http://www.kramerleather.com/

I've been using a Milt Sparks Pocket Holster for many years with my Mdl. 60. Never been made with it and it works perfectly for me.

A good friend of mine carries his Mdl. 36 in a Kramer holster and l;ikes it very much. There are several others out there, but those two I'm familiar with. Both are top quality holsters.

FWIW. J.B.

I have a new Kydex pocket holster. Take a look at it on my web site

I've used the Kramer horsehide pocket holster for several years. It's a good product: well made of substantial materials, and a close fit to the gun.

BTW, the Kramer leather tarnishes nickel, but I haven't noticed an effect on blue or stainless.

another one for the Kramer. I don't have one right now (tuition's coming up; I didn't think I should be spending $70 on a holster) but the Galco I use now isn't too bad. It takes a little breaking in, I think, to make it comfortable. A guy at the range has a Kramer. The simulated wallet profile works remarkably.

Very happy with a Galco pocket holster for my 640-1.

I almost forgot, Mitch Rosen has a new pocket holster and it is even less expensive than Kramer or Galco. You can see it on the Mitch Rosen Web site.

You guys are going to stone me, but I vote for (and use) the Uncle Mike's #3 pocket holster. It's basically a soft nylon/foam glasses case with a strip of rough rubber-like fabric sewn around the outside to hold it in the pocket. Very cheap and very effective, and does an excellent job of breaking up the outline of the J-frame.

Hello. I use Galco pocket holsters for both my J-frame and my Glock 26. Best.
