S&W 642 .38 spl Ankle Holster

[combat45acp]

I have carried a SP101 for years in a Galco Ankle Glove holster. I finally decided I didn't need a SS .357 for a backup, and it was too heavy. Went with a SW 642 .38 spl, now I need a holster.

My question is there a BETTER holster than the Galco Ankle Glove? Money isn't much of an object as holsters last just about forever.

"BETTER" in the gun culture is always a subjective matter.

I would look at Alessi:

If it's a true BUG, then the ankle is probably the way to go. Plus, you've got experience with ankle carry.

The only other option I can think of would be a pocket holster. I like the Desanti Nemesis. I carry a j-frame in mine and it does pretty good.

Hmm, I will call them today. Their pictures on my blackberry won't enlarge when I click on them. Have you owned on of their holsters before?

I like the Renegade. Other posts on the forum with links.

My first Ankle glove lasted about nine years of almost daily wear. I'm on my second now and saw no reason to look elsewhere when it came time to replace the first.

Yes, I wear an Alessi ankle rig for a Smith J frame daily since 1995.

I have heard high praise from Five Shot Holsters too. Clint Smith of Thunder Ranch has recommended them several times to me.
