Holster Recommendations: EAA Windicator .357 Magnum 6” Barrel

[DarkHorse1]

Good evening, just wondering if any of you have good holster recommendations for my new EAA Windicator .357 Magnum 6” Barrel? I prefer leather, just having trouble locating good options.

thank you,

I would suggest looking at the 1791 Gunleather UIW Max. It's made to fit anything up to a wide-frame semi-auto with a light and optic down to a snub-nosed revolver, right or left hand, and it's an open-top/open-bottom design so barrel length doesn't matter. I have seen one used to carry a Dan Wesson Mdl 15 with the 2-1/2" bbl IWB and it seemed pretty darn secure. From what I can tell, as long a part of the gun is wide enough not to fall through the barrel opening in the bottom, it'll carry securely.

Thanks friend, I will definitely take a look at that!

Looks like a very simple design. So, it's a front panel and a back panel with a gap in the middle? Like placing your palms together? Is there any sort of internal leaf spring pressing the two panels together?

No but it is thick leather and very stiff. Belt tension seems to be enough to hold - I've fit a Colt's Dick Spl as easily as a SA UltraCarry with just an adjustment to my belt - which is also a 1791. https://1791gunleather.com/product/gun-belt-01-made-with-100-american-heavy-native-steerhide/
