I have a compact 9mm (Taurus Millenium G2, 3" barrel) and I was at wal-mart the other day and picked up a Blackhawk hip holster in the bargain bin for $6. It's nylon and actually really nice for a starter holster. It has a strong belt loop and a thumb break. The gun fits very snug and the strap holds it in place great (you can hold it upside down and shake it and it doesn't move).
The only thing is that there is about an extra 3" on the bottom past the barrel since it was made for revolvers. Is this any sort of issue I should worry about? I was thinking about trimming it down, but the gun fits and it feel comfortable enough to me.
