I've finally managed to schedule a day for my wife & daughter both to take a Basic Handgun class. This is not the NRA course, but a class more structured on how to handle a handgun & what to do if ever the time comes to have to defend yourself.
I don't believe it will be the last either. I'm going to take the course with them - more to be a moral support & remove any initimidation that they might feel taking this first course, & it will be a family event.
A belt holster is required. It is recommended that it be of a design that allows the gun to be re-holstered with 1 hand & not need a strap to hold the gun in - they specifically say that the nylon field holsters are not desireable as they tend to collapse a little as the weapon is pulled.
To my question: can anyone recommend a reasonably priced holster that fits the description for a J-frame S&W? My wife is training with her 3" M60; my daughter with her 2" M637. The thing is, neither of them is considering CCW belt carry. I have no problem buying quality leather, but I'd rather be economical when it appears it will only be used for a class or 2.
I'd like to go with leather, it needs to allow 1 hand reholstering & they have to be here by the end of this month so it will have to be a "stock" item. I'll also have to buy 1 belt; I have an older gun belt that used to fit me for 1 of them can use but need 1 more. I need to order soon, so any quick recommendations are appreciated!
Thanks....
