You guys with the Shield

[Darryle]

I hold you responsible. I just placed an order for a new 40 Shield. $442 shipped to my FFL and then ordered a couple of 7rd mags from S&W and a couple more 40c mags.

I had been eyeing them for a while, just wasn't going to pay inflated exorbitant prices the gougers wanted.

I saw a post on a wider notched rear sight and maybe a XS Big Dot in the front? Sound familiar?

What IWB holster are you guys using?

Crossbreed Mini-tuck is what I use. Problem with Crossbreed, you order it today, you will get it in four months.

I currently carry a 40c, so time isn't an issue.

Thanks!

While you're waiting, get a Remora. You might never switch.

I have mine in a Little Foxx Hybrid but haven't had a chance to wear it yet.

I have the sticky and its similar. My friend has a remora for his Kahr I love this style holster its so comfy and easy to draw

Old Faithful holsters can't be beat. They are basically same style as Crossbreed and much much faster from order to delivery. You won't be dis-satisfied. PS: I have a Remora as well, but still favor the Old Faithful

+1 on Old Faithful IWB for the Shield. Comfortable for CCW in hot and even humid weather. They are also fairly quick from order to delivery.

I have an old faithful for my m&p9 FS and like it very much, but for the Shield I purchased a foxx hybrid. It has a better warranty than the old faithful (foxx is a lifetime warranty) and I found the foxx to have great construction as well. The price is great and I received it within a few days of the order being placed.

Also have a Sticky MD-2

Pocket holster for the Shield. If you are going to wear a belt holster, use IWB and get a full size M&P as barrel length will be inside your pants and not an issue.

My Shield is just a bit too bit for pocket carry. I've done pocket carry with my S&W 642 for years, with a Mika holster. I was disappointed the Shield is just a tad too big. Oh, it will fit, but would be hard pressed to remove it in a panic situation

That's my experience given the size pants I wear. On the flip side, tightly held in my pocket can't be much worse than compared to worn on my ankle.

I really prefer my DeSantis Nemesis over my Sticky.

I had Ray at Lobo Gun Leather make me a fantastic holster.
He's a member here and does excellent work. It's much more comfortable than a hybrid Kydex holster!
The price is right and the wait time is short. He says it may take 6 or 7 weeks, but I've been getting mine in 4.

+1 on the Sticky holster, was very skeptical about it but it works great for me.

[KEN L]

I front pocket carry my Shield in a Desantis Super Fly without the flap. Some of my short's pockets aren't quite as deep as I'd like them, but the gun carries very well. My PM9 carries better, but I like them equally as well.

I have the sticky too and love it. Simple, cheap and works like a charm!

Ordered one of these for my XDs9. He makes them for the Shield and most all M&P's as well. 49.00 including priority shipping. Four weeks out now.

Mine should be here Wednesday. They have a felt backing for comfort plus a thin rubber layer to keep sweat off and of course the normal leather and kydex.

I'm clearly in the minority, but I like a high and tight OWB holster at 3 oclock.

Check out Celtic Holsters. I use the Wee holster for my shield. $45.00 and less than a week.

Holsters a lot to do with preference and need but I live in FL and work at home. Likewise I wear cargo shorts and tee's or short sleeve non tucked shirts most of the year. I'm not a huge guy and wearing a Galco suede stow and go 552 ended up working out really well. I can wear it around 1-2 and it disappears while still being comfortable driving, walking or sitting down to eat in a restaurant all the while not having to wear a belt or constantly pull up my shorts (lack of butt syndrome). Still going to try a Desantis or other pocket holster but I suspect with my build the shield is a little large/heavy for a summer pocket gun.

Old Faithful Holster for a year now. Ordered the kit form.....assembled in 20 mins. Extremely satisfied with it.

[SmurfHunter]

Ive been using a DeSantis sof tuck. It actually works really well in pocket or IWB. Very light but has good retention. Got it for $20 shipped off eBay

[Bodhisatva]

My Shield disappears in a Little FoxX hybrid. The first day I wore it, I had to keep checking to see if it was still there. FoxX is working on about a 5 DAY lead time. Ordered mine on a Saturday afternoon, was wearing it the following Friday. About $40 with free shipping. Try it for 2 weeks, if you don't like it send it back and get your money back. No, I have no affiliation with FoxX... I just love the work that they do.

Yeah, I use Tapatalk... So what?

I also have Sticky (MD2). Can be carried IWB or pocket.
