A word about shoulder holsters.....
A horizontal shoulder holster will cause the gun to be subject to the high perspiration zone of the under-arm area if you are carrying over a shirt but under a coat. I believe a 586 is blued, and this salty perspiration would not be good for it. In 25 years as a LEO I have only had one shoulder holster, a Safariland, for a Beretta 92FS. Under the other arm was the double mag pouch and the cuff case. Mine (made from that Safariland laminate) finally cracked after about 12 years although it was not a cheap holster to buy. Shoulder holsters can beat your ribs to death if you have to walk a lot, and are downright painful if you run. The best place to NOT feel the weight of a gun after wearing one for 8-10 hours, is on your hip with a good belt and a good pancake holster. Shoulder holsters look "cool" but many people don't like them after awhile. I rarely wore mine. In the hot Texas summer that lasts about 10 months of the year, there was rarely a time I could stand to wear a coat all day. Shoulder holsters do print if you are not careful. The only thing similar to a shoulder holster I have today is a load bearing vest with a cross draw chest holster......Galls.com has many types of holsters, including shoulder holsters.
