Good holster for my new M&P 9

[jayman9207]

I was hoping to get some recommendations for a good holster that I can use while at the range. I don't plan on concealing my current M&P9 (hoping to eventually get my hands on a Shield for that). I've got the 4.25" Pro Series version (SKU 178035 ). I have never holstered a handgun before so I don't really know what I am looking for yet. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

At some point I think I might add a tactical light to it as this gun is mainly for having some fun at the range and for home protection (any suggestions for that would also be appreciated). So a couple of holsters might be in order. Thanks.

I originally bought the Blackhawk Serpa holster, which I liked, but found that I much preferred the release on the Safariland holster instead.

I have a Bladetech and it is a great holster.

I like the Serpa for range use. It sticks out too far for me to carry though.

This was one that I was looking at.

Thanks for all of the recommendations guys!

Try Comp-Tac just as good as Blade Tech but usually just a 2 day wait where Blade Tech can be weeks.

I use the Safariland 6378 ALS holster. It comes with both a belt attachment & a paddle attachment. Safariland is a quality product.

Yeah, that's the one I have. I love it. I liked the Blackhawk Serpa until I tried this one, but found that the Safariland thumb release was by far easier, quicker and more natural to use. The Serpa index finder release just isn't as good IMHO.

I am using one as well and I am very happy with it.

My personal favorite is Armordillo Concealment OWB. Its a Raven type holster but a lot less money. Owned 3, never had an issue and surprisingly comfortable.

I think I am going to give this one a shot. Amazon has them for a pretty good price.

I stand by Crossbreed Holsters.

I personally have an IWB holster from them for my 4.25" pro series and one I was wrestling with my friend with the holster on but didn't have my gun on me and it bent the material in a little so it didn't fit right anymore. I contacted the company and they told me to ship it their way and they would fix it. Got it back with it perfect again.

I am going to try out their appendix carry for my PM9. Depending on how I like it I might get another for my M&P9c or maybe give the MiniTuck a try.

I bought the Safariland 6378 and it looks like I have a problem. I have been using it for a couple weeks now and it is rubbing the finish off of the top edge of my slide! What should / can I do? I emailed them this morning but have not yet heard back from them. This sucks!
