Description
The North American Arms LR Inside-the-Pant Holster is about as purpose-built as carry gear gets. It's shaped specifically for NAA's .22 Short and .22 Long Rifle mini-revolvers, so instead of swimming around in a generic pocket rig, your tiny single-action sits snug and secure right where you put it. The brown leather gives it that classic, broken-in look, and because it's cut small to match the gun, it tucks away without printing through your shirt.
What Makes the NAA LR Inside-the-Pant Holster Tick
The design is simple on purpose. The brushed suede leather body cradles the revolver while a sturdy metal clip hooks over your waistband or belt, keeping the holster anchored when you draw. That clip is the whole trick with inside-the-pant carry: it stays put so the gun comes out clean and the leather stays behind. For a gun this small, that kind of reliable retention and consistent position matters more than you'd think.
Carry Options with the NAA Inside-the-Pant Holster
Because of the way the clip and body are laid out, this one works for right-hand carry and can be run on either side depending on how you position it, which gives you some flexibility in where you want the grip riding. Leather like this benefits from a short break-in period, so it's worth seating your revolver in it a few times at home to let the holster mold to the exact frame and barrel. Once it settles in, the fit tightens up nicely.
If you own a Mini, a Black Widow in .22 LR, or any of NAA's Long Rifle frame revolvers, this is the holster the factory designed around that platform. It keeps a fun, pocket-sized gun comfortable and concealed without a bunch of bulk, which is exactly the point of carrying something this compact in the first place.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which revolvers does the NAA LR Inside-the-Pant Holster fit?
This holster is built for North American Arms .22 Short and .22 Long Rifle frame mini-revolvers, including the Mini and Black Widow in .22 LR. It's shaped around that specific platform rather than being a one-size-fits-all rig. It is not designed for the larger Magnum frame models, which use a separate holster.
Does this holster come as right or left hand?
The HIP-L-BR is listed as a right-hand carry holster, though the clip design gives it some flexibility in positioning. North American Arms also offers a dedicated left-handed version of this same holster if that's what you're after.
How does the inside-the-pant holster attach?
It uses a metal clip that hooks over your waistband or belt and holds the holster inside your pants. When you draw, the clip keeps the holster anchored so the revolver comes out clean. That setup is what makes IWB carry comfortable and concealable.
Does the leather need to be broken in?
A little, yes. Leather holsters start out firm and loosen up as they mold to the gun, so it helps to seat your revolver in it a few times at home. After a short break-in, the fit tightens around your specific frame and barrel for better retention.
