Evening folks,
I have only carried a government size 1911 before. IWB @ 4 o'clock in an Burns/Alessi GWH and Alessi belt. I kinda have the revolver itch, but I also want to be able to carry it (concealed).
I have been looking around on the auction sites for 3" barreled .357 S&W revolvers but have not found any that I like. I would like a blued all steel (heavy barrel or full underlug) revolver that I can either leave stock and add custom grips or customize at a later date.
What barrel length is most conducive to carrying concealed for revolvers? Is IWB comfortable with revolvers? I know my 1911 must be thinner than those cylinders!! I wouldn't mind a 3" 586, but where would I find it!!
Can you guys help me out with those questions?
Recap:
1. Can you carry IWB with revolver comfortably, or at least as comfortable as a 1911?
2. What barrel length is conducive to the necessary type of carry? (I can do belt holster if I have to)
3. What would I expect to pay for a 3" 586 if I can find one?
Thanks,
SB
