Look at the ones I have checked first. Ask any questions I can help with. Also HighVelocity is the holster EXPERT & ENCYCLOPEDIA on the board. He will help you too.
Flintknapper is another long time carry that knows holsters.
Charles Cotton is too. He is really busy sometimes & not on the board every day.
From there check out all you want to look at. Some are made to sell & are not too good for wear. All the stuff I checked is quality leather or kydex. From there, what you like is going to be the key.
One of the things I remind folks that buy conceal carry holsters is the old saying: You get what you pay for." This is double true w/ holsters. There is a huge difference in the quality & comfort of $25.00 holsters & $75.00 holsters. Top quality leather holsters will cost close to or a little more than $100.00 new & there will be a 6-12 week wait. They stay that far behind. Kydex lead time is shorter.
You can watch some of the boards for sale items & get them cheaper.
You have to be willing to wait for what you want & it may take a WHILE.
I have bought only 3 new holsters in my 8 yrs of carry.
If I can help holler.
