I'm looking for a link to a place where I can select a holster and method of concealed carry for a revolver. Just looking at a few pictures from a manufacturer or retailer sporting their stuff just isn't getting it. I'm looking for a site where I can apply my physical apperance (height, weight, build) and carry applications (in vehicle, running errands, walking in crowd, etc....) then see what it might look like and get the pros and cons for each.

Currently carry in jacket pocket (top loading, not slit side) a SP101. It doesn't necessarily print but it obvious there is something heavy in my pocket. Got to make a change with summer comming and the light jacket comes out.

Thank for your help,
dean
 
I have looked at at least 20 holster sites and have not seen anything like you are looking for. Your best bet is to call one of the makers and talk over what you want.
 
41 Redhawk has it right. I've seen about 50 different web sites and there's nothing like that probably because what's comfortable for one person will not be for another even with identical measurements. Call a few custom holster-makers and go with the one that feels right.

I can recommend Tucker Gunleather. They made one for my 44 Redhawk.

I know this does not take build etc into account but - this rig was a copy Kevin of K&D Holsters did for me, of an old Jim Burke (RIP JIM). Albeit BTW with the addition of some very nice tooling.

It carries my SP-101 admirably - I only use OWB. It appears here to have more cant because of angle of belt - it is tho a generous cant but this allows for the grips to be tucked in nicely. A lightweight Smith and Alexander denim vest covers this with ease and zero printing.

I am 6'.00" and 200#.
