I am in the process of purchasing a Kimber Custom Stainless II fullsize and want a holster with the snap strap between the hammer and the gun itself. I am debating between choosing a paddle style holster or a dual belt loop holster. I will be taking the holster and gun off and putting them on regularly, so the paddle style sounds about right, but I'm concerned about how much it will protrude from my body and show through my shirt. I currently carry a Rossi 357 with a dual loop belt holster, which prodtrudes more than I like. I believe this is due to my oh so wonderful "love handles". So, based on this info would a paddle protrude more than a belt style, or is the abilitly to remove the holster quickly worth the extra protrusion? Thanks for any info. See ya,
Jason

I like a paddle, but for concealment, I wear a belt holster (minimalist).

Inside the waistband.

try and see if you can ge one made by lou alssei.

Picked up a nice leather paddle from Backwoods for my Kimber. He does such awesome work.

Just like Amex.. don't leave home without it!!
