S&W 325 Thunder Ranch holster recommendations?

[wilburfan]

Hello: Looking for a recommendation on a holster for a S&W 325 Thunder Ranch model. Not too many of the bigs list a holster for this. I need a black belt or paddle holster for uniformed administrater L.E. duty, without the full gun belt, cuffs, baton, etc. Don't like to full pancake style to wide on the hip. Suggestions would be appreciated.

If you want to carry it with the light rail attached, you're going to have a problem finding one.

I have a Milt Sparks Summer Special 2 for my TRD 325. It's IWB, which isn't what you're after, but I had the same difficulty in finding a holster. Tony Kanady and crew were great to work with but I ended up sending them my gun because they couldn't get a dummy from S&W and didn't have enough orders of that model to justify buying a real one. The shipping costs were about the same as the holster price. It was worth it; the holster is fantastic and holds the gun tightly against my side. They now have a disclaimer about S&W Performance Center guns on their website.

If you don't want to carry it with the light rail in place, most N-Frame holsters will do, but that defeats the purpose. I have my light rail loctited in. The idea is to be able to slip the light on when needed (for me, in the nightstand) and carry it without the light but with the rail all day long.

Good luck.

Thanks for the advice. I won't use the rail so I hope to find a good N frame holster for a 4 incher.
