Re: Smith and Wesson 627

El Paso Saddlery makes the tanker holsters. Will probably be picking one up for my Glock 19 in a few months. Here is a link . . . http://www.epsaddlery.com/pc-154-14-194 ... rrels.aspx They also make one for longer barreled models if you need it.

Depends on what style you want but as far as manufacturer goes El Paso Saddlery, De Santis or Galco would all be good choices.
