Good IWB Kydex Holster for SP101? +

[GunGeek]

As I posted in another thread I bought an SP101 .357mag with a 2.25 barrel. Before this I was an auto man but now I'm sold on this little 5 shooter and am ready to add it to my carry list.

What I am looking for is a IWB Kydex holster, perferibly one with a slight forward cant, my usual holster companies are 99% autos so I hate to just start buying things without a recomendation.

Anyone have experience or recomendations for a holster that meets these requirements? Also I would like to find a matching single and/or dual speed loader holder or single holder and a surefire(Oh I just remembered I need a new one of those too, mine went missing )

Oh sidenote: are there a great how-to for speedloading revolvers out there? I understand the basics but would like to read up some more, perferibly with pictures too. I have tried searching Google with no luck.

Heck after this list anyone got a million dollors I can have too? Can't hurt to ask!

As far as speedloader use, check out the following thread -- it may help you out.

Do a search with something like "using speed loaders" on this forum and you will probably find other inforrmation.

Sorry can't help you with the Kydex question. I am a leather kind of guy and use a Milt Sparks SSII for my SP101. It meets all your requirements except for material though.

As for the million dollars -- don't be a silly, you're now supposed to demand "One BILLION dollars."

Well let me ask a diffrent question, due you find your leather holster gets soaked in sweat on hot days? I don't want to have to buy 2 holsters just so I can dry the other one out every day.

I have the Blade Tech IWB holster and I am very happy with the fit, finish, and durability of their holsters.

Good luck.

Not in my experience, and East Texas gets pretty hot and humid! I always wear a t-shirt between the holster and my body. I know some people sweat more than others, so that may be a problem for them -- individual variance. Sparks and others will make your holster in horsehide if you would like -- horse is VERY resistant to moisture.

I just can't get into plastic holsters -- I have tried a couple and they end up in the "holster drawer" very quickly. Some love plastic, but I just don't get it! I think it is great if others like them, they just aren't for me.
