So I have passed this S&W Model 15 on to my Mother for home defense (she has been properly trained at the local indoor range). She's done a total 180 from super-liberal - being afraid to shoot my .22 rifle to looking forward to range-trips and supportive of RKBA issues. The pistol is 4" (?), .38 special using WWB +P HP rounds.
Can you guys recommend any nice leather holsters? I CCW and I know this is a really big pistol but I think I could conceal it in the winter. Is IWB possible with something like this or am I stuck with OWB? I would definately like something in leather to go with the classic 1959-era looks of the pistol.
I am looking for leather only, hopefully less than $100. If you guys think this gun can be concealed (I conceal a Glock 19) are there any IWB options for me and my mother to share? If not, OWB is fine for me and the moms at the range (and maybe CCW under a winter jacket). I've looked at several online leather-holster manufacturers but they don't seem to list applications for these older models.
1. Can you conceal a pistol this big IWB?
1a. If so, what kind of IWB (leather) holster do you recommend to be shared between a large (6'1", 175lb man) and a stout (5'9(?), 155lb(?) mother)
2. If this can't be concealed IWB, what leather OWB semi-concealable holsters do you recommend that could be shared by me and my mom.
Budget is hopefully around $100 +/-$40 - I would like to save money if possible.
THANKS
My mom loves this gun - WAY less intimidating (for her) than my CCW Glock 19 and is serving as a great Home Defense gun for a single, older woman without a man in the house.
