Default M&P 9 Shield TS 3.1" holster recommendations

I got a 9mm M&P 9 Shield TS Satin AL Slide with a 3.125" barrel.


Can anyone recommend a good OWB/IWB or Shoulder Holster?



I prefer one with a strap, but it appears the selection is pretty slim so I'll take any advice.


Thanks in advance.

If you want active retention in an OWB holster, the Blackhawk L2C Compact is far more robust than the old SERPA line and can be currently found for $21.49 on. Amazon. Safariland also has GLS and ALS retention holsters for the Shield.

If you want IWB with active retention, there's the Safariland 575 GLS holster line.

I have a shield 9 plus and use a Cross Breed N8 holster.
It can be used either IWB or OWB.
I have tried both ways, and prefer it inside the belt, but outside the waist band option.
I wear it at 5 o'clock and like it.

You might look at MTR Custom Leather. They make IWB, OWB, and Shoulder rigs for your pistol. I have several of their products but no affiliation other than being a satisfied customer. Here's a link:https://www.mtrcustomleather.com/shop/
