    Holster suggestions for class

    I want to take a revolver pistol class. However, revolvers are not my primary carry but I would like to have more practical experience with revolvers so I'm not looking for anything expensive. Don't need $100+ Safariland rig for a class or two.

    Ideally something inexpensive, used is ok, used police holsters are ok. LEFT HAND for SW K frame 10,13,15 or N frame 27 or possibly a GP100. All 4 in barrels

    If anyone has any laying around in storage at their department is be interested in a LEFT HAND one. Speed loaders as well

    Left hand holsters usually go pretty cheap on fleabay.

    Agreed. I have a lot of LH holsters, most bought there.

    If you are going to take a class from an instructor, why not ask them if you can borrow one?

    Take a look at Viper Holsters. He’s down your way. Joe will hook you up.
    Are you taking a class from Sights & Trigger in September?

    Didn't even think of it. I tend to be the only lefty. Occasionally there's another student as well. I did ask if he knew of any and he pointed to one on Amazon. Ordered that one.

    Thanks, will do. Yes Sept 7 I believe.
    Can't wait to juggle gun and speed loaders as I attempt to reload a cylinder that opens the wrong way?!

    I'm in the same boat. New to revolvers and I only have the one. I'm trying to find a holster. Is there any criteria one should be looking for? This isn't the 80's so I don't think I need a thumb break. I found some like new stuff on various auction sites that are simple leather pancake style.

    On a side note, I e-mailed Joe but have not gotten a response. Can anyone fill me in on how to pay for the class and reserve a slot?

    He usually responds within a day or two.

    This is what I ended up buying.
