If you are looking for a good holster, Crossbreed or Comp-Tac or similar, people may have one, but unlikely it would be free.
If you are looking for any old holster, you could try Academy, they have the nylon ones for $10 or so.
Personally, I wouldn't want to use one of those for concealed carry, but I do have one for my wifes Glock to and from the range, so it doesn't just get tossed around the range bag.

I have a well worn holster that isn’t nearly as pretty as it was when I first got it, is super tattered around the edges, and doesn’t function nearly as well as it should. You welcome to come get it, but you must also take wife which bears all the same qualities.

You might look into Desantis "Tuck This 2" I wear one with my Glock sometimes. (Even though I have some other pretty expensive holsters, I like this one)
It's pretty cheap (nylon) and almost infinitely adjustable /cant/reverse cant etc. Uses a J-hook under the belt so the clip is less noticeable than over-the-belt-clips; and it's tuckable.

Anyway, It's a better choice IMHO than some of the other Nylon clip-on choices, for lots of reasons. (J-hook clip is more secure when drawing than say Uncle Mike's over the belt clip etc etc etc.

I mean, it's still Nylon, but a better beginning holster than most Nylon ones in my "old holster drawer"

If you're a lefty, I put a holster for a S&W Sigma on the "Pay It Forward" thread a few days ago. viewtopic.php?f=19&t=32638&p=481598&hil ... rd#p481598" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

That's a nice new holster austinrealtor.
Could that "Lefty" holster be used for a "Righty" for either crossdraw or Small-of-back carry?
(I don't have a S&W, but just wondering)

You can use this old trick: Get a leather shoestring or boot string, about 18-24" long. 2. double it, loop it in tying the ends together. 3. Insert it inside of your belt, with both ends hanging down. Slip you S&W between the loops and insert it into your belt. Inexpensive but it works. better than dependiing ion friction of the belt alone to keep it secure; not enough for running, but better tha nothing. I am not good at drawing. I'm sure other can help with that. used it for years when using automatics, but wil not work with revolver. Old cowman's trick.
