Everyone makes leather for 2 1/8" snubbies but few build them for 3" versions.

A S&W J-Frame revolver with a 3" barrel - makes a perfect Kit Gun.


Simply Rugged makes a fine holster for the 3" J Frame .38 Spec. Here is mine. That's a 3" Heavy Barrel, shoots very well and is mighty handy to carry.

Yeah - the "no one makes leather for..." argument rarely flies with me anymore. If the gun works for you, there is a competent holster maker or several who will make you a good holster for it. Or if you are even a little crafty, it's easy to make your own in kydex. Either a guy likes a gun or he doesn't, but no one should blame holster availability these days.

Lunatic fringe....we all know you're out there.
