Also, if you want to PM me what part of DFW you're in, we might be able to meet so you can check them out.
Asking about the El Paso. I'm in the mid cities, so you are quite away from me, but thanks for the offer.

Excaliber: I really like the look of the Fists, but again 8 weeks to deliver. Appreciate the info. Doing some searching on the web now for other choices, but may stop by CTD in Ft. Worth to look around. I've got some pretty decent holsters there before.

Thanks for all the tips folks. While I'm shopping/waiting for a quality leather OWB holster, I thought I'd "take the plunge" and really "splurge" on this one "rlol"

Who knows, I might love it. if not, there's room in the "holster drawer' (I think), and I'll be out the price of lunch.

Fist quotes 8 weeks, but they've always delivered mine in 2 - 3 weeks. I think they cite the worst case scenario to avoid complaints. Nobody ever gripes about getting an order early, but they sure will when something runs late.

FIST can also make their leather holsters out of kydex or do a leather/kydex hybrid if you want. Good to hear the good report on them since I'm considering the #19 for my LCR and SP-01.

Here you go. It does stick out a bit.

Thanks Pawpaw. That's what I'm wanting to avoid. Nice gun BTW ;-)
