I have a S & W 6906. I really like the gun. I have had no problems with it at all. The only problem I am carrying it in a Uncle Mike's holster. I have tried several times to find a holster with a little more retention other then just the snap that that this one uses. I have found the snap unhooked a couple of times when I would be at the store so I am getting uncomfortable with carrying it that way. Does anyone have a suggestion of a holster with a better retention. then this holster?

Thanks
Ron

welcome

I carry A S&W 4006 every day for an OC weapon and I carry it in A Tex Shoemaker N69 PC it is all leather with a snap retention but I have never had it come unsnapped unless I unsnapped it. But they can be difficult to find. But they are out there.

Don't know if you have found a holster yet, but my process is google then select "images" at the top of the page. This provides many pics. click a pic then go to the page for more details.

Started here. Top line has about 6 links - images is one of them.
