i have a ruger sp101 357magnum, 3inch barrel. i have decided to get my conceal carry permit, what would be a good choice? i am on a strick budget so i need something that will work but be inexspensive. i have been open carrying without trouble here in ky., but i think i would feel more comfortable when i go to town if i concealed. i have lived here all my life and from time to time, there will be someone open carrying in town. the police don't even bother cause they know its legal, when i went to town the first time they checked me out to make sure i was ok(not drunk, and ran a background check to be sure i could legaly own and carry the gun) when i passed, they said they would make a note so i wouldn't be bothered again. now i go just about everywhere, but i would like to get my conceal carry permit. thanks for any help.

Uncle Mikes IWB worn with an untucked shirt or jacket (Size 0 fits the J-frame Smiths and Ruger LCR; with the SP-101 you could go the next size up--they have a sizing chart).

Alternatively, a Galco (a little more expensive but still not too much) IWB clip on.

Either will fill the bill.

I carry mine in an El Paso Saddlery Covert Force IWB.
