'Holster" for the Handle Holster dealie??

No luck doing Internet searches and forum searches.  Just bought a NAA .22LR with the folding holster handle.  I like it.  But would also like a leather holster to put it in when the handle holster is folded up.

   

   Probably overkill - but thought maybe someone made one...??  Have been looking at obvious pouches, cell phone holsters, that might do.

   

   Idea is to cover the exposed metal of the revolver that the handle holster dealie doesn't cover.

I am not sure I fully grasp your concept as to "WHY?". If it is something you just want, by all means, go for it. It seems to me whatever you come up with will likely slow down drawing the/deploying the little revolver. The strong point of the holster grip is the fact it gives the appearance of a folded pocket knife. So many people carry a knife in that fashion, it does not get a second glance from anyone (at least in my part of the country).
Guns are a lot like parachutes:

It would be nice to have for pocket carry to keep all the dirt and fuzz out of the gun.  I carry my 22 Short in a little (sort of) coin purse and it stays really clean.  Larry

Thanks Larry.  Have looked at pouches but hadn't thought of a coin purse.  Just wanna keep it protected from grit and my clothes protected from the "gun juice."

   

   Not into fast draw - don't think its possible anyway, gotta pry the handle down. Won't single hand flip like a knife.

   

   With a coin purse you could even seem compliant if someone ordered you to hand over your money, open it and take out the revolver and start unfolding it...hmmm...scary.

Unless you are oblivious to your surroundings, things are predictable, having a gun with you all the time is the most important thing, so easy carry is the most important thing so you will always have it.  As thing start looking bad you can start moving things up until you have the gun in your hand in your pocket.  Probably not perfect because there are alway surprises, but I bet 90% of the time this will do just fine.  You may also want to look for "Tobacco Pouches".  Larry
