aAaAaaa wah WAH wah.

I used to pack a double action smith in a pricey(pricey for me im poor cummins employee) galco holster for about 2 days and hated the damn thing for a thousand reasons..but my short barrel blackhawk tucks right into my belt with nothing more than a shoelace looped on the hammer so comfy i forget its there...yeah i know its a bad idea and thus my dilemma...i cant find a single reasonably priced (cheap) holster for the thing that isnt covered in bangles or cartridge loops or slung so low my shirt wont even reach guns grip. i know indiana is open carry legal but i dont wanna walk arround looking like a cowboy... im 24 my normal dress is some baggy cargo shorts and a loose t shirt...something tells me i would look like a fool wearing a drop loop...and i dont have the scratch for a mernickle...Any other single action slingers! How do you carry?

Check out Uncle Mike's nylon holsters. They're low budget and might be what you're looking for.

Hey fellow Cummins guy!

Def check out the Uncle Mikes Inside the waistband holsters.

I rock one now, and love it!

What's wrong with Mexican carry? I have carried a SP101 for years like that. Both times I needed the gun, I got it out quick enough. If your Blackhawk is comfy without a IWB hoster how can it be bad?

this seems like a pretty good reason to me.
