MY FIRST IWB HOLSTER
Well, I made my first decision and purchased the Galco Summer Comfort IWB holster for my M&P 40 full size pistol. It was an internet purchase and paid $58.36 plus $6.24 for shipping. It came to the house in four days via Fedex. The leather was a little stiff out of the box but following the directions it quickly conformed to the proper sizing. I wore it all afternoon sitting, standing, and walking and it was very comfortable. This holster when wore at the 4 o'clock position is very concealable and is held tight between my body and pants. My pants did draw down a bit on my strong side but I guess it just because I am a little shall we say pear shaped at 5' 11" and 240 pounds. Suspenders would help alot if I were to use them under my shirt but then that brings another problem during personal times ;-}. All in all, I an very happy with the Summer comfort both for the fit and price.

I would love to review my RKBA holster but I dont have it. I ordered it back in late June when the website said 2-4 weeks for delivery. Its going on 8 weeks out now. Anyone else got a holster from these guys?
Kusiak, DeSantis Nemesis, PJ
I am using the Kusiak for IWB and have another Shield in a DeSantis Nemesis (use the Glock 27 or LC9 version) in case my wife wants to put in her jacket or purse.
Just ordered a PJ IWB Kydex holster this week. Good reviews from several sources and he was very quick to respond to a question via email.
The Kusiak leather IWB is the one with the extra mag sleeve attached. I give it a 7 out of 10 star rating.
Pros:
Well made, attractive, leather
Strong clip
Inexpensive ($45)
Conceals well at 3 o'clock
Cons:
Stiff new leather (will likely soften up)
Not canted enough to keep extended mag from printing
Let you know how the PJ performs for me when it arrives.

Very, very nice!!!Here is a IWB holster I made a couple months ago based on the Crossbreed Supertuck. It took about 3 hours and about $6.00 bucks. I CC a Ruger P95 currently and at times I forget I have it on. The P95 is a bit chunky, but this holster carries it very well.

Ordered my Shield holster from N82 Tactical yesterday afternoon. http://n82tactical.com/n82store/ It has already been shipped. Same day service. Now I gotta wait about a month for the Shields to get into the MA pipeline.

I didn't have pictures in my other posts but I thought I'd add some.
Old Faithful holster
A Bianchi 100 made for a G26 which I wet a little around the trigger guard area and then stuffed the Shield in for a perfect fit.
I use it for quick trips and the OF for all day wear.

I don't have a Shield but I have a 9c. I also have a PJ holsters holster and love it. Great fit, even the edges of the kydex are beveled so there are no sharp edges. Shipped in about 2.5 weeks. and I love it.
I can't recommend them highly enough.

If you haven't already, you might want to take a look at UBG Holsters IWB line UBG Holsters . Nate puts out a fine product at very reasonable prices. I have one of his Canute models for a Kel-Tec P11 that I absolutely love ( the holster that is, the p11...not so much
). I'm waiting on a Shield to come in and I'll be ordering one of Nate's Strikers for that. Best of luck with your choice.

I know I'm quoting my own post but I just wanted to let you all know that my N82 shield holster came today. It looks to be a great product. Very well made and when I put it on the comfort was immediately apparent.
Don't be afraid to give one of these a try.
How much Thickness did it add? Did u get the kydex or stretchy stuff? Tuckable? Sorry for the questions but I am seriously thinking of a tuckable N82 when my Shield arrives. Thanks

I got the polycarbonare holster. It is tuckable. It's the same thickness as wearing most IWB type holters. I don't think I'd wear one with a heavy gun though because it relies on one belt clip so the load isn't spread out.
