Holster for LCRX .327

I am trying to find an IWB holster for my LCRX .327. Holsters made for J-frame Smiths do not work.

My gun has Crimson Trace grips, which adds that slight bump for the laser housing. The trigger guard is large on all the LCRs. And, I think, the cylinder on a .327 is slightly longer than other LCRs so holsters that fit other calibers don't fit mine.

So - does anyone have an IWB holster that fits an LCRX .327 Mag?

Thanks.

Why would the cylinder on the 327 be longer than other LCRs?

I'm not certain that's true. That's why I wrote "I think" in that sentence. I haven't found a spec sheet that clarifies that.

I do see holsters advertised that specify all the calibers EXCEPT .327.

Anybody have a .38 LCR and a .327 LCR you can measure for us?

Thanks Dan-O. Is there a brand for IWB that you have found to work better than others?

Why would you think the cylinder would be longer for the 327?

The only difference between a .327 and a .38/.357 is the grooves in the cylinder... ie: 6 shot/5 shot.

I have a Kydex IWB from Just Holster It that fits both my LCR .357 and my LCR .22WMR.

Here is DeSantis offerings.

Thanks, WheelGunMan. I like the look of the SlimTuk from DeSantis. I might give one of those a try.

My 38 spl. LCR rides in a compact Mitch Rosen belt holster I bought through Ruger. It has a Ruger imprint.
