Default Blue Line Holsters?

Anyone use their Kydex holster for your M&P Shield? I realize there's probably a gazillion Kydex holsters nowadays but, this one looked promising with the full sweat shield.

That looks good. I have a concealment express kydex for my .45 and this one has a fuller looking sweat shield.

You're right about the "gazillion Kydex holsters nowadays", my Vector Holster looks almost identical to that one and also has a full sweat shield.

I went a head and took a gamble and ordered one. I'll give a review of it once it arrives and I've had a chance to wear it for a couple of days.

I have been wearing one for about 2 weeks and really like it. My wife does not, so she took the Veddor for the Shield which she likes much better. It is smoother and more rounded.

For me, the Concealment Express is comfortable at a reasonable price. I usually pay the $5+ extra for the fancy colors. When I bought a bunch of Remoras, I would get them mixed up since they were all black. So, I decided to get only one black this time .

It took me about a week to used to Kydex. At first, I wasn't sure. But, after a week, it is very close to the comfort of Remora. I often forget it is there.

I don't buy in to the BS that people preach about a holster shouldn't be comfortable. In my opinion, that is ridiculous. But, someone said it a zillion years ago and people keep repeating it.

Ok, I've used different brand kydex holsters in the past but, this one is fast becoming my favorite. Been wearing it with my shield and got to say, it is comfortable, easy to draw from, rides well for me and the sweat shield is a huge bonus. Does not rub in any fashion on my body either. I am ordering one for my XDs .40 later! It also holds my Shield right up next to my body and printing is very negligible.
