OWB or Shoulder Holster for 3" L Frame

[Dragline45]

Can anyone recommend a holster for a 3" L frame, specifically either OWB or a shoulder rig? Seems like most are either for a 2.5" or 4"+

DeSantis makes a thumbreak belt holster for the 3".
You could go with a belt slide, like the Bianchi model 5.
El Paso Saddlery has a bunch of holsters they could make for that gun.

I'm using a Galco "Speed Paddle" holster for my 586 L-Comp 3".

I built this one for my Smith M60 with a 3" tube several months ago, Drag. It's a Tom Threepersons type wiht open top, fitted snug so no keeper strap is necessary. El Pason Saddlery makes a similar model, and the quality is superb.

I've tried a shoulder rig, but found that it flopped around too much and the draw was slow. With a shirt tail out or a jacket, this one works well. The 2nd one shows the same type of holster, albeit without the reinforcing band, with my wife's M36 in place. HTH's Rod

Desantis 3" thumb break scabbard, I have one for my 4" n frames they work great and hold the revolver securely and close in.

Master blaster, that desantis thumb break is a great holster. I use it as my woods holster for my k frames.

I use the DeSantis one as well.
