I recently acquired a s&w model 625 and I'm looking for suggestions for 1. a speed holster for use in steel challenge and IPSC style events and 2. a holster for IDPA matches. Thanks in advance.

I make a wide variety of Kydex holsters including holsters for the S&W 625
you can see some photos at this site "http://www.ohio.net/~mjb/index~1.htm" Mike Benedict Talon Tactical Holsters btw they are all IDPA approved |

My shootin' buddy got the Kramer from Dillon for IDPA. Started out fitting quite tight, but he got it broke in okay.
Good Luck... Joe ------------------ Go NRA |

Thanks for the replies. I'll check out the holsters mentioned. By the way, I called Safariland today but may have gotten a bum stear. The customer service gal said she didn't list a competition holster for a smith 625. She didn't seem all that familiar with their product line though. Does Earnie Hill still makes a fastrac revolver holster?

The Safariland 002 Cup Challenge will work for the S&W 625, but you may want to reposition the muzzle strap for the 5" barrel. Gilmore makes a version of their Speed Leader holster just for revolvers, as does Nolan Innovation with their Aluminator. (These are all ISPC/Speed Challenge/Bianchi style holsters, BTW.)

Thanks all. I've decided to try the safariland cup challenge for the IPSC/Steel Challenge event. I'm still undecided about the IDPA holster.
