I have a M&P 9C and I am looking for the best IWB holster. I am a big guy and it is hard to find a good hoster for CC carry.

Most of my herd rides in a Kramer #3 (kramerleather.com) or a Milt Sparks VM-2. The VM-2 is not a cheap holster nor is the Kramer, but I have yet to be disappointed in what I get in return for my money. Comfort and quality are incredible. Might work for you as well.

Smith & Wesson sells holsters on their site, and their prices are competetive. I looks like they are Galco brand with the S&W stamp on them. A three slot open top or thumb break would be more versatile, for either strong side or cross draw wear. Works for me...
 
I am a biggin 345 lb but short 5 -8,.GALCO TRITON .Works for my cc I carry it at 5:00 clock.:D
 
my boss is 450lbs and 6'3".
I told him about my Crossbreed Supertuck and he just looked down at me and laughed and said, "Looks at me, do you see a waist!?"

Long story short.. he says he swears by the shoulder holster.
I asked him how often he carry's and he said, "when I am outside".
He's a big man, of few words.... but it speaks books.

Good luck with your serach...
 
I have a Milt Sparks Summer Special and a MTAC for when I have to carry IWB. I really prefer OWB this time of year.
 
I am also using the Galco Triton. I have only had the pistol a few days, but so far the holster is very secure and suprisingly comfortable. Not what I expected for a Kydex type product.

If you get a pistol with the safety you may have to re-mold the kydex slightly in the safety area. I had to.
 
Being a "person of size" myself, the Comp-Tac MTAC works best for me of everything I've tried. I've been carrying my M&P40c in it since I got it in January and it's been great.
 
UBG makes a holster that is very comfortable and one you can wear all day long
Also offers a stiffer holster for those who have to keep a tighter belt
It's worth lookin into .

I've been using the Crossbreed Supertuck and even carrying all day, don't know it's there. Comfortable, secure, adjustable. As the ad says, "it's the ugliest holster you'll love to wear."

I have an M&P 9C and bought a Comp-Tac Minotaur MTAC Holster yesterday for it. Wore it concealed in the afternoon and last night. Extremely comfortable at 3:30 - 4:00 position. Uncomfortable while driving with the gun in the holster at that position, but the empty holster was not a bother while driving. It's adjustable, so I'll have to try other positions to see how they feel, such as crossdraw, etc. So far, I'm very pleased with the purchase. I also have a blackhawk paddle/belt holster as well as a couple cheap nylon holsters. I'm certain I'll wear the MTAC more than any other holster I have. It's that comfortable against the skin. The weight of the gun is distributed better by the design of the holster. It's easy to put on and take off as well. I highly recommend.
 
I have two holsters for the MnP9c. Like others have already mentioned, the Comp Tac Minotaur, which works very well. I also have a Galco Triton that is great for short errands. I would recommend both.
 
I found this thread on Google while looking for a new holster (softcase if possible)

I used a IWB holster (Custom) it's a hybrid Kydex/Leather holster ( the kydex is a carbon fiber pattern) I am also doing a Digital Desert camo pattern one (lots of options out there)

So far so good wearing it (and it doesn't cost as much as a Crossbreed or take as much time to get them sent in the mail) Feel free to ask questions
 
Know it's an older thread but as others have said, hands down the cross breed super tuck, it IS the ugliest one you will learn to love! I carry a 9 M&P, also a Ruger SR9c and a 340 M&P. Both 9's fit the same Cross Breed and a CB quick clip for the revolver. I will add if you get one go for the horsehide, it is even more comfortable!
 
the crossbreed supertuck looks, to me, like the gun might not be as secure as say the MTAC. is this the case or does the gun stay put with movement?
 
I am a BIG guy, carry my 1913 all day long in a Crossbreed and never know it's there. The super tuck is the ONLY holster I have owned that works this good and is this comfortable. You got two weeks to try liking it or your money back. It is well worth the wait and the bucks for this holster. Try it, you'll like it. I have never had any problem with the weapon's retention. When you tighten your belt, the gun stays put, yet draws without any undue effort. They really work well.
 
I happily carry my M&P9C in one of the Galco KingTucks made speciafically for the M&Ps. It is a hybrid of the leather and kydex similar in design to the CrossBreeds and can be found for 50.00-60.00.

Once I rec'd it, I found it fit my Fullsize M&P 9 and 40 perfectly. The leather that extends past the kydex on the bottom, is long enough for the full size models.

It is very comfortable and the more I wear it the better it feels. I can literally wear it from onring until I go to bed and forget it is there.
 
Cleveland Holsters "Ugly Holster". Why pay $70 cowhide/$85 horsehide from some manufacturerers when Cleveland charges $39 cow/$49 horse. Who cares if it's "ugly", you're shoving it in your pants. Best IWB value out there IMO. Not affiliated in any way, just a satisfied customer.
 
The Cleveland Ugly holsters look fab. Very nice... Why pay more is right! Any idea how long the wait is?
 
HOLSTER FOR A S&W 9 C

I have the same gun and I carry it during the winter months when people wear heavy clothing, and a 380 would be too light a gun to carry. The holster that I have been using for years is a Safariland 527 series. Its a pancake holster that fits close to your body. Its easy to wear a pull over shirt to cover your gun. No strap, the holster is molded to your gun. You could stand on your head, that the gun won't fall out. One of the best features is that the holster retails for around $60.00. It fits close to your body so that it won't get caught on chairs that have arms. I was in LE for 38 years and thats what I carried for many of those years.

Not to long I would think. Website says he's working on holsters paid for last week of December. Bobby Cleveland's a great guy to deal with. His site also says prices are going up slightly as of February. Get 'em ordered now I guess!
