I'm getting the Crimson Trace laser for my 9mm Shield. Any suggestions for holster?
Thanks

Need more info.....How do you want to carry, IWB, OWB? Do you prefer leather, nylon, ?? If you are like most people here, you will soon have a drawer full of holsters that looked great when you ordered them but they just didn't work out! Personally I prefer leather outside-the-waistband, pancake style carry. My favorite is my Lobo Gunleather modified pancake, carried straight-up.

I don't have the laser, but am very happy with the Alien Gear IWB for my 9mm Shield. Very comfortable at the 4 o'clock position.

Thanks for the input, guys. I will carry iWB. I have a kydex from Telstar right now and really like it. I need to find out if they make one to accommodate the Crimson trace laser.

I DO have the drawer full of holsters. Some are fine at certain times of the year(weather). Some are good with different clothing. Some are uncomfortable when sitting or trying to get your hand in your pocket. But I recently ordered my best all round holster. Won't name a brand as I'm not selling anything. But I got a belly band. Never been more comfortable carrying my CCW. Not good for full size pistols but as most CCW are small to mid size not much of an issue. Prints less than any other holster I have used. Also carrys 2 spare mags. Really like this holster.

I chose CrossBreed holsters for my source and it is a perfect fit for me. I don't know I have my shield with me at all. In fact, I also carry a full 9 in a CrossBreed and have the same results, effortless carry. Good luck in your selection.
