So, I'm having trouble finding a factory holster for the SIG 220 Legion in 10mm. I got the SA/DA one (it was a hard choice, the SA Only is real nice.)

Ideally I'd like to get both a strong side OWB holster and a vertical shoulder holster for this gun.

I spoke to someone at Galco and he said that they don't make holsters for this model of gun, and would not make a custom holster for it. He also said the 10mm is thicker than the .45 and so the SIG 220 .45 holsters do not work. It sounded like learned by experience.

(He did say if there was enough interest they would consider making some holster for the gun, but I know it's a fairly low-production number gun. Hmmmm.)

So, besides the width there is also that it's a longer barrel than most other Sig 220s.
(The Legion 220 10mm is a full 5" gun, the Legion 220 .45 is a 4.25" (Commander length) gun)

Sadness.

I've got a mix of El Paso Saddlery, Galco, and DeSantis holsters in my collection over the years. I've also checked Mitch Rosen's site. I don't see this gun called out, and all the 220 holsters appear to be for the (tens of thousands of) 4.25" "normal" length P-220s.

Usually, I really do figure out what holsters are available before I buy a gun, but in this case it spoke to me, so I took the plunge.

Now what.

(PS: concealment isn't a big issue. I have other guns for daily carry. I will use this mostly as my outdoors gun.)
 
For clarity, the standard P220 is a 4.4" barreled gun and not 4.25".

I'm not a SIG guy, but I don't think the the 10mm gun is thicker, but not all P220's have rails and that will make a difference.

One down side is many of the leather holster makers don't typically have good on-line lists, but many of them will offer holsters for a model, they just haven't gotten around to updating their websites. You may have to call or email.

Some of the SIG guys may chime in if the 5" P220 would fit in holsters for other SIG models with 5" barrels such as the P226 X-Five.

Thanks for your response.
