That looks like a very nice holster. Very similar to those I use.The 3" carries just fine. Just as one does not scrimp on the price of a gun the same should apply to a holster. Mine carries very well owb and hugs the body. Never understand why one would buy a cheap holster that won't support the weight of the gun.
Ok, thanksSeems like you need to learn how to find and use a better quality holster & belt.

To each his own.
I happen to enjoy bouncing pop cans around at 100 yards with my snubbies. Not to say I always hit them, but I sure scare hell out of them and bounce them around consistently
I am not going to waste my time or energy doing a video for you ... biased people like you wouldn't believe it anyway, you would claim it's some kind of hoax. You know it and I know it. As most people like you, you fail to make distinctions in what I said and try to twist it to fit your narrative ... I said I don't always hit them but manage to scare hell out of them and bounce them around ... hit the dirt anywhere within foot or two of a pop can on a dirt bank with a 357 and it will go flying. I shoot with both eyes open, so it doesn't matter what the front sight covers up with one eye or doesn't, I can still see where I hit. It isn't a matter of holding a rock-steady sight picture, it is a matter of timing your squeeze so the shot breaks just as the sights cross the target. Of course, if you are too biased to have ever tried it, you wouldn't know ... now would you. As for Hickok, he is always shooting guns he is not real familiar with ... if he were really trying, with a gun he has practiced it with for hundreds of rounds, I am sure he could nail that gong every time. OK, so with my snubbie and iron sights, I can come within a foot or two of a soda can and make it go flying ... I might actually hit the damned can one out of thirty or fifty. That is with a snubby and iron sights. With my Ruger MKIII Competition with a full compliment of Volquartsen upgrades (2lb, very crisp trigger) and my good red dot with the smallest diameter dot I could find, I can actually hit the can. With that gun at that distance I can shatter a shotgun clay and then go to work shattering the shards. It may take a couple shots to hit the shards, but I clean them up. It is great fun. And quite frankly I don't give a rip whether you believe me or not.I'd love to see this, please do a video!
1. If you are doing your job and watching the front sight as the shot breaks, the muzzle rise would cover your ability to see the can dance.
2. Hickok 45's big honking gong is only 80 yards and even Hickok cannot consistently hit that gong everytime with a snubbie. So you must be an amazing shot.
3. The 10 ring on a 50 yard slow fire bullseye target is 3" and that is much larger than a soda can. So at 100 yards, you are essentially shooting higher than master class hitting a soda can more than 5 out of ten times.

The old time (1950s on up) gun writers were pretty uniform about concealing revolvers. The bulk of the gun is in the grips and cylinder, and an inchof barrel was not the deciding factor.
An elderly gentleman in his 90's I knew used to wear one of his favorite t shirts that said...
"The older I get, the better I was"
No truer word have ever been spoke!
I can hardly see a soda can at 100 yards!
Thank you so much 44 AMP. Hopefully your post avoided a protracted, argumentative diatribe peeing contest!The old time (1950s on up) gun writers were pretty uniform about concealing revolvers. The bulk of the gun is in the grips and cylinder, and an inchof barrel was not the deciding factor.
Don't "dance" many cans. do you??
Done right the can jumps several feet, usually up, and to one side or the other, easily visible even with muzzle rise from recoil.
Hitting targets at long range with a snub nose isn't easy, but its not the impossible task some people think it is.
It takes knowing what you're doing and it takes practice. Most people don't know how and don't practice if they do.
Soda cans around my place run about 2.5" or so in diameter. I don't consider 3" to be "much larger" particularly for a handgun at 100yds.
There are people who, once they get "dialed in" can repeatedly ring the 200yd gong on the rifle range, with any pistol you hand them. I was one of them, once, before time caught up with me..spent about 30+ years doing that, for fun. Just because most people can't, doesn't mean no one can.
I will never shoot past 10 yards".
