I'm pretty sure fobus has been making one for quite a while.

One year late. Vedder Makes a nice IWB for the SR. Also works great for back/front pocket carry with clip connected over pocket flap.

What about a plain ol leather thumb break holster that goes on your belt?

No one uses "leather" any more. You are way out of date. Plastic INSIDE the belt is the only way to go!!

Well, not for me. I still prefer leather holster hanging outside my belts (gun belts of course).

I'm guessing a simple google search for RUGER SR-22 HOLSTER would get a few dozen hits.........

''way out of date'' hahaha! I guess I am out of date ! I was just thinking of something to strap on my belt when I walk out into the woods. Plastic may be better but I like the look, smell and feel of leather. And I like the idea of a thumb break better than a '' adjust the drag on your gun to your liking '' type of hold too. Sometimes being out of date is a good thing. I bet a plastic saddle would be better but you'd never sell one to a cowboy.
I like old trucks and mature women too...... Though new trucks and young women ain't bad either.

I like leather holsters as well. Didn't have a holster for one of my SR22s so I dug out my old leather tools and decided to make one.

It turned out okay but I then decided I needed to carry an extra mag so I added a mag pouch to it.

End result it a belt holster that falls just at the right height and carries an extra mag.

I've carried it hunting for the last two years and it is a pretty handy setup.

Mac, I really like your holster. You get a certain amount of satisfaction with something you made yourself. I'm afraid a lot of younger guys are missing out on that. It seems to be a growing idea to buy stuff and bolt it on and think you did something. When ever I see something I like, I don't think " I'll have to buy one of those'' . I think " how can I make / get one of those" . I get twofold results, I make it and save money !
Something I have started doing is marking what ever I build with my name and date, for posterity !

Well don't look too close...LOL, I was a bit rusty when I made that holster and the stitching is a bit wonky but it turned out okay. I've since made a number of holsters for other guns and some butt stock cuffs to hold ammo for my lever actions.

I find leather working fairly easy to do and very therapeutic. I kinda got away from it when the local Tandy Leather store closed 10 years ago but discovered the last remaining Tandy store is on the other side of the metro area. I make a trip about once a month now.
