What holsters?
Okay, so I found a used M&P .45 4 inch. It's in great shape and now I need to get holsters for it.
Looking at 1 IWB and 1 OWB. OWB will mainly be for IDPA/IPC matches and when I'm in the woods.
For OWB I'm looking at:
Blade Tech or a SERPA. (I've got a Blade tech for my 1911 so I'm familiar with it)
For IWB I'm looking at:
KB Holsters
FIST
CrossBreed.
Any opinions or suggestions?
Cheers
Alex

I have the Blackhawk CQC for my M&P9 4-1/4". It's very comfortable and holds the gun pretty securely. I like the paddle attachment, but it came with both paddle and belt loop options.

Alex, for my .45c I have a Safariland ALS Paddle for OWB, very pleased with it...although i don't know how it compares to the ones you listed.
For IWB i have two...crossbreed super tuck deluxe and a remora RFT. Both are excellent. The remora is much cheaper but not as comfortable as the crossbreed. What the remora lacks in comfort, it makes up in speed of putting on and taking off.

Since you're considering kydex, you should check these guys out. Do a search on this forum for holster evaluations where you'll find my evaluation. Personal Security Systems Kydex Holsters

So far thanks for the replies....
I just ordered the Crossbreed Deluxe because I've read a BUNCH of goot reviews about it. I was originally a bit skeptical because it looks so darned big.... but I figure I've got a 2 week return time on it ifn I dont like it.. so why not.
And since I've already got a Blade Tech SRB for my 1911's I'm definately leanin towards them, but I need to hear (wrote them) back from them seeing if they make it for the M&P 45 in 4".... they have the 4.5 inch listed not the 4. I'm pretty sure they do but I just wanna make sure....

All major makers of holster now offer their products for the M&P, my M&P ride in either Kramer #3 or Milt Sparks VM-2 when carrying concealed, when at a match where the trigger guard must be covered I have been using Kramer OWB and few DeSantis that are actually for a Glock 21. The fit is great however and the price was certainly right. BTW,I still appreciate a good leather holster.

Currently using the Serpa in IDPA and I have a Comptach Minotaur for my Glock 23 and 27. Have a couple of Don Humes, a Galco Summer Comfort and some others. The Comptach is hands down my favorite though.

I know it is not on your list but I like mine so much I thought I would throw a remora holster out there. To me it is hard to beat for the price. I like it better than my MTAC.
