Smith & Wesson J Frame 442 642 637 IWB Holster - USA Made - Fits S&W Revolver 442 642 637 - Klipt IWB Holster by Blade-Tech Holsters, Inside Waistband Concealed Carry (Right Hand)

Great fit and finish, holds the firearm nice and secure inside, and the Holster secures quickly and neatly to most any belt with just a tuck and audible *click* of the clip snapping over your belt, even when running, jumping, etc. Highly recommend this Holster for the guys/gals like me that still like the discretion and simplicity of a snub gun but don't like the hot and bulky leather holsters or the insecure and obnoxious elastic Holsters, but don't want to just haphazardly drop it into your pant pocket (although with this Holster, you can pocket carry with peace of mind!!!)

Bought this for a s&w j-frame airweight, fit could be tighter, but one on a belt it is tight enough. Carry this appendix and 4 o'clock and it is super comfortable. Blade-tech actually places the belt clip beside the revolvers cylinder instead of directly on top of it which really helps reduce the thickness of an iwb holster. Recently carried for 16 hours straight and could forget it was there - driving, standing, walking. At this price, no brainer 5 stars.

Good quality for the price. Fits my 442 very well. The belt clip is solid and the edges are all rounded. I rated it 4 stars because the retention is not the greatest and isn't adjustable, but I think with some DIY it could be made better. That's my only complaint.

This is exactly what I was looking for, an IWB (inside waistband) light weight holster with secure retention and belt clasp, for a .38 caliber S&W 5-round snub nose revolver. I have the aluminum Air Weight model and it fits perfectly; not so tight to cause difficult extraction; not loose enough to accidentally pop out. To remove the firearm, place your thumb on top of the back plate and pull up on the grip with 2 or three fingers, or simply give the grip a sharp tug. The clasp keeps the holster in place on an average belt. I read a few reviews that said their gun was loose in this holster, I didn't have that problem at all. Know your local laws about concealed or open carry when you are off your premises.

Got this for my S&W snubnose .38.It snaps into the holster for a reasonable, minimal hold that is reinforced when placed in position under my belt. The minimal design allows tis to be worn with only a T-shirt, which my standard holsters didn't quite work for.I am very happy with this so far but am curious if it will age well.

I’ve worn this holster almost continuously for two years and I have 3 main points of contention with it. The first is that for an IWB holster this one is is unnecessarily bulky and “gun shaped,” especially the belt clip. It’s wide, square profile prints excessively under your shirt and it is not replaceable unless you’re willing to cut it off. In hindsight this holster basically removes all of the shape advantages which make small frame revolvers attractive as carry guns in the first place.Next, the “blade” of the holster is similarly unreasonably high and sharp edged. I started out wearing this in the appendix position but any kind of normal human movement would result in a painful stab in the gut, and I’m saying that as someone who is fairly thin. I ended up dremeling that bit down and rounding the edge to be a little more comfortable but be warned- this holster is not good for appendix or even 3 o’clock carry.Finally, while the Kydex initially provides decent retention, the fold line between the sight opening and the inside ‘wall’ of the holster is a pretty obvious stress point. After 2 years of use, my Bladetech holster developed a stress crack along that fold which effectively breaks it in half (see images).I tend to prefer Kydex holsters but in this instance I’m rethinking my choice as I’ve never had a leather IWB holster break in half the way this one just did.This holster probably looks like a good concept on paper, but it fails in every real world application.

I purchased this as a gift for a friend and she loves it. Fits like a glove is the gist of her description. She recommends 10/10

Fits a Smith and Wesson airweight 38 spcl. Snub nose perfectly, but retention is not good. Not adjustment possible. Needs to be a tighter fit. Will probably return and go higher end with tension adjustability
