I recently got my CO CCW permit in the mail. Surprisingly, it only took 3 weeks.
Anyhow, although I've primarily been a P&R S&W fan, I recently bought a Ruger SP101 with 3" barrel in .357 Mag. I've grown quite fond of the revolver for various reasons, and I would like to make it my primary daily carry piece.
My office pretty much requires a minimum of business casual dress. I typically wear slacks with a tucked in dress shirt. No tie. No jacket. The only thing normally on my belt is a Blackberry.
I've been carrying a S&W 442 in a Renegade ankle holster. This has worked wonderfully. However, I would like to switch to the 3" SP101. I don't think I would be carrying that in an ankle holster (or a pocket holster, for that matter).
So, what would you guys recommend I look into? I'm looking for suggestions as far as different modes of carry, as well as specific holster recommendations. I'm willing to try dressing around the gun, but I'm not sure I can swing wearing a vest, sweater or sports coat in the dead of summer (my office is quite warm, and I have no control over the thermostat).
My guess is I have to look towards tuckable IWB holsters, SmartCarry or belly bands. I'm also assuming shoulder holsters are out since I can't always wear a covering garment.
What do you guys recommend? Specific holster models would be appreciated.
