Galco makes some very nice holsters for whatever application you need, and affordable.
For the very best CCW holsters you should try Milt Sparks. The Summer Special is what I use for my Springfield .45, it's an inside the waistband holster and it's as comfortable as any such design can be. Extemely high quality. It does cost a bit more but will last a lifetime and is excellently designed.
As far as "pocket-pistols", if it's something you'd truly like to carry in your pocket then I'd look at what CRF said. The Scandium S&W .357, tho I'd load it with 158 LSWCHP +P .38 loads.
That thing only weighs about 12 oz. and all reports I've read say shooting full power .357 loads are just brutal.

How many is alot? I'd say when they don't fit in my safe anymore, then that is enough. Then I'll buy a bigger safe, at which time I won't have enough anymore. If called upon to protect myself or my family, then the one that I have on me at that time will be the one that shall be tasked with the job. If I ever need all of them, then either zombies have risen up, or the Commies invaded, in which case, I can only hope I have enough ammo.
Firearms are for protection first and foremost, but an afternoon shooting them at the range is good clean fun. Try it if you haven't. You might get the bug too

Well I have way to many to list I will just say over 40, I don't like to put pics and such of my weapons online because I don't like the fact that everyone that wants to can know what I have. I guess I am just paranoid.
Anyway my regular carry weapon is a xd 40 service model with trijicon sights and custom combat trigger work done. I had no idea that this many people on here liked xd's.

Browning A bolt .270
Remington 700 BL .308
Remington 721 30.06
Marlin 336 30.30
Ruger 10/22
H&K USP 45
Smith and Wesson 686 .357(pre agreement)
Beretta Extrema 2 12 gauge
Remington 870 Wingmaster 12 gauge
Yildiz o/u in 20 gauge(best 400 I have ever spent)
Browning citori Lightning 12 gauge
I was lucky most of the rifles and shotguns i inhereted when my grandfather passed. My Dad and my other uncles didn't hunt so I got most of his firearms. I had been hunting with my grandfather since i was 10 and we never missed a season. I'm about to get a CHL so next one will be a carry weapon. Anyone had experience with the xd compact? The USP compact just doesn't feel right.

I'm gonna assume that the newbie was saying it was me with a lot of guns..
Thanks!!
I've had and sold or traded many more over the years.. those are only the ones I still have.
"I've got more guns than I need, but not as many as I want.. ".. I think that's the quote.. lol
And actually I saw just today that USFA is making a SAA clone in .38-40.. I never wanted the Italian clones, wanted US made.. and there it is!! www.usfirearms.com
High quality revolvers from all I've heard.. Now I just need to take a big gulp of air and convince myself to spend $900 on a SAA... LOL
