Top Five Factors to Consider When

The first decision you'll need to make is the carry style that suits your needs best. Outside the Waistband (OWB) holsters provide easy access and are great for open carry, but they may not be as discreet as Inside the Waistband (IWB) holsters. IWB holsters, on the other hand, offer excellent concealment, making them ideal for everyday carry (EDC).

2. Material and Construction

The quality of the holster material and construction plays a crucial role in its performance and durability. Holsters are commonly made from various materials, each offering unique benefits. One popular choice is professionally made high-quality laminated solid wood, such as Rosewood grips, known for their elegant appearance and excellent craftsmanship. These grips add a touch of sophistication to your Heritage 22 revolver and provide a comfortable and secure hold.

3. Retention and Security

Retention and security are critical factors when selecting a holster for your Heritage 22. Your holster must securely hold the revolver in place, preventing accidental slips or falls while still allowing for a smooth and efficient draw. Look for holsters with adjustable retention screws or straps, allowing you to customize the retention level to your preference.

4. Comfort and Fit

Comfort is paramount, especially if you plan on carrying your Heritage 22 for extended periods. A holster that digs into your skin or causes discomfort will discourage you from carrying consistently. Look for holsters with smooth edges, ergonomic designs, and adjustable cant angles to find a comfortable fit.
