Pros:  Fits a J-Frame S&W revolver very well. Great value for the price. Holds the revolver close to the waste.
Cons:  Extremely tight fit. I hope the holster loosens up over time.
Would recommend:  yes

Very nice holster, well made. Fits a J-Frame S&W revolver almost to well. Brand new it certainly is not a speed holster. Hoping it loosens up after a break in period.

I own two Blackhawk holsters for my S&W Jframe. I conceal carry on a daily basis. the holster is very comfortable and I know if I am ever in the situation in which I was forced to draw the gun, it would come out of the holster quickly and safely.

This is a well made holster and holds my j frame nice and snug. The problem is that it is almost to snug and might cause an issue in a panic situation where the gun would need to be drawn quickly. Hopefully over some time it will break in a little.
