Cardini Leather USA -IWB Ultra Soft Leather Holster - for S&W Bodyguard 38 Special, M&P 340, Taurus 85 - and Other Snub Nose Revolvers - Inside The Waistband with Clip

Right out of the box it perfectly slides snuggly onto my Taurus 856 38 Special. The leather is soft and smooth like a fine leather belt. Things to consider: Out of the box - very snug. My revolver had to be pulled rather firmly. Not enough for me to say it was a “tight” fit, but I did have to pull slightly harder than I expected. After 1 month - worn in very well. It went from very snug out of the box, to a perfect fit. I did not condition the leather with any products. I kept my revolver holstered in this even when I put it away in my safe. It was holstered at all times except for when I practiced my draw, and after just one month I no longer have to pull as firmly as I did. Perfect fit. Like a glove. The clip is very stout. If you wear this as intended (inside waist band) it will stay put when you draw. If you wear this inside your pocket you will have to hold it in place with one hand while you draw with the other. Either way is comfortable to wear. Even for bigger people. I am 5’9” 250lbs. Just be aware if you do wear this inside your pocket the clip will catch on objects, ie., car doors, furniture, etc. I highly recommend this holster. Beautiful, stout, and well crafted.

I almost did not buy this because one buyer, and only one buyer, stated it was cheep and of poor quality and more of a Generic Holster vs fitting a S & W Bodyguard with Laser. Who ever that was must be mentally challenged. Leather is good, inside is smooth, snugly accommodates a Bodyguard. It may/may not be molded to custom fit only a S & W Bodyguard with Laser, but you would be hard pressed to prove that. Nice fit and finish, stitching is nice and with leather it will only get better with time. Strong Belt Clip, and semigloss finish. Your not going to find a better leather holster for even close to these dollars! The picture on Amazon is exactly like it looks like with a "revolver" impression to accommodate the J frame of this gun.

Very stiff at first of course. But fits perfectly once broken in and looks beautiful! Clip is awesome.

Painless transaction. Good quality product. Affordable prices. I would've expected it to be a bit sturdier so as to maintain its shape while wearing it, since it is a IWB holster. But overall, it is a good product.

This holster is light weight but well made. It is so comfortable that I forgot I was wearing it. My gun fits in it perfectly and is easy to draw.

Fits the intended gun perfectly, not too tight or loose. More comfortable than I was expecting, took it hiking in the mountains and was surprised at its performance. Good quality leather, and has a sturdy clip. Doesn't bother the laser sight on my gun. Great holster!

Fits my s&w bodyguard 38 with laser sight but I'm not a big fan of the way the holster bulges out on the side though. There is not a cut out that accommodates the laser so the right side of the holster bulges out some. The leather seems thin to me. I have a leather holster for my tomcat that is much nicer but of course it was more money. The clip seems nice and sturdy...it's almost a little too hard to get on and off but I will get used to it. It's just okay...I wouldn't buy another one. My biggest complaint is that it took 10 days to arrive.

Excellent fit W/ S&W Bodyguard 38 very comfortable. Great retention. The only thing is that pre shaping such as it is didn't quite line up and it bugs me a little.
