Holster for Shield 9mm with Crimson Trace LG489
I've purchased the Crimson Trace laser for my Shield 9mm and now looking for a leather holster to fit the new profile. Crimson Trace website gave a link to a DeSantis Mini Scabbard that is molded to fit the Shield with the CT laser. The holster has mostly good reviews so I ordered it. Over all fit & finish was pretty good, even though the leather seemed a little thin. The Shield with the CT fits a little too tight but that would probably correct itself with use. What I didn't like was the Mini Scabbard does not hold the weapon close to my body. It leans out with about 1/2 inch gap between my body and the grip. I like the OWB leather holsters and usually just wear a tee shirt over the top of it. My current Winthrop #0322 leather holster holds my shield snug to my side. Winthrop's website doesn't show a holster made for a Shield with CT.
Does anyone know of other leather holsters that fits a Shield with the CT laser?
I might have to start looking at a Kydex holster, but I prefer leather. I do use a good gun belt, so a sagging belt is not the problem, just a sagging waistline.
