Holster type for .38 pistol (police special)

[crestedbutte]

LAST EDITED ON Aug-02-12 AT 00:30AM (MST)[p]Need to buy a holster for this type of pistol with approx. 4" barrel length that will be comfortable when hiking, camping, riding 4 wheeler's (is it legal to carry on 4-wheeler?), general recreation, etc. Would you recommend:
1. waist/belt holster
2. ankle holster
3. shoulder holster
4. other?

I'd go wth the shoulder holster and it should be legal in most areas if it's not concealed. Laws really vary when you start putting them under clothes and concealing them. I know up here in MI they have to be visible unless you possess a CCW.

For 4" and under I prefer a thumb break belt holster. It doesn't get in the way when you're riding and it's handy. For heavy guns like encores/large frame revolvers I used to use a shoulder holster but now attach my holster to my backpack.
