Looking for a Leather or Nylon holster for S&W M&P 22 Compact. Not interested in a Kydex holster.

I'm looking for a holster that will fit both a S&W Model 36 and a Model 442. I like the compactness of the Blackhawk Speed Classic. I like the ability to use the Bianchi Model III Cyclone as a cross draw holster. I would like a holster that stays close to the body. Retention is my main concern...

A Ruger Mark II, stainless 5 1/2 inch bull barrel. Fiber optic front sight, V-notch rear sight. Carried daily in an Uncle Mike's shoulder holster or belt holster since retirement eight years ago. Sure wish it were a little lighter, but I can't beat it for accuracy. The fiber optic/V-notch...

Unfortunately I remember this stuff from the first time around. On second thought…I should be grateful that I do remember it. Now how about Bobby Benson and the B Bar B Riders, Sky King and Sergeant Preston?

I have three revolvers that I carry regularly (not all at the same time). A 2 inch S&W Model 36 (OWB holster), a 2 inch S&W Model 442 (pocket) and a 2 3/4 Ruger Speed Six (OWB holster). In my opinion, the best all around carry gun is the Speed Six. I use standard velocity 158 grain .38 caliber...

If it's an "old" Model 36, S&W will not touch it.

Altamont Grips. Nice looking, good fit, good company to work with. http://www.altamontco.com/experimental/products/pistol/smith_and_wesson/

My packin'/trail/general all-around gun is my 2 3/4 inch Speed Six. Bought it new thirty years ago. It is one sweet gun, but my CCW gun is a S&W 442.

Holster: Uncle Mikes vertical shoulder holster. Durable and inexpensive. Every time I get read to buy a nice leather holster I ask myself "why?" and then stick with what I have.

Ruger Marks. I don't bother taking them down any more. Run a bore snake down the barrel, take off the grips, blast them with gun scrubber and then add a little good gun oil.

You said revolver, but...you might want to consider a Ruger Mark II or Mark III semi-auto with the 5 1/2 inch bull barrel. Stainless and you can easily install a couple different options of fiber optic sights. It would be within your most important consideration of $600. I'm basically a...

We're good. Thanks

danez71, Yep, you did come across just as a bit "snarky" I was a very open-minded educator and do listen to other folks' point-of-view, but having worked with people as long as I have, I know that folks don't change their opinions all that much,especially if that have a "passion" for what...
