Holster for J-frame M&P 340 357/38

[Pappabear]

I have never carried a wheel gun. What holster do you recommend for a model 340. Its the little J-frame with 1 7/8 barrel. I plan to carry on my hip. I am a big Blade-tech guy, but I do have Leather and I am open to other ideas. Don't know if Blade-tech is good for such a gun?

I keep coming back to blackhawk's leather detachable slide holster for my j-frame. It conceals pretty well and is super easy to take on and off. I also like comp-tac's CTAC and I wish they made the MTAC for the j-frame. I have a raven concealment on order to see if it holds tighter to the body than my blackhawk.

I'll carry mine in a pocket holster or a blackhawk cqc paddle holster. The teeth on that holster are great and it's cant is adjustable. I went with the cheaper version which has a different plastic than their duty one because it was a few bucks cheaper.

For OWB carry take a look at Raven Concealment or maybe 5Shot Leather for a leather holster. I use the Desantis Nemesis or Uncle Mikes pocket holster Size #3 for pocket carry or 5Shot Leather ankle holster.
