My custom kydex holster from Forest City Tactical came today in the mail. Ordered it on the 1st. Well worth the wait. Awesome products.

It's a left handed owb holster. Carries real close to the body. Can be concealed very easy under a shirt.

Loooks better than my generic holster for my shield.
Have not carried it yet.gotta trust it before I carry
 
There are so many "no name" kydex holster makers out there that are really top-notch. The people that hold their noses at these mom n pops and only order stuff from Raven kill me. Why spend 3x more for something just because Costa mentions it on a you tube video? I'll check out Forest city for sure!

Just a quick example

i agree. Foxx, cooks, all make really great stuff with small lead times and reasonable prices. Under $50 usually shipped within a few days.
 
I had a FCT for a Glock 19. It was a great product. Very well done. I sold the Glock and included the holster. I will be ordering one for my M&P9 Pro Series soon. I cannot recommend them highly enough!
 
Check out TheisHolsters.com as well. One man shop with good quality and pretty fast delivery. I like my E-Z Clip very much.

Spiny, I did check Theis Holsers out, and subsequently placed an order with him. There are some very good reviews throughout the innerweb for their/his product.

Thanks for the heads-up...

I don't know that you are comparing apples to apples here. Isn't the Raven you show, for a gun with a light, and the "no name" just for the gun?

Ordered a holster from him for my G30, top quality product, price was right with shipping and received my holster in two weeks or less. I won't waste my time or money on another Crossbreed Supertuck again. :D

Not bad but IMHO they waste a lot of kydex. I guess it just depends on what you're looking for...

Here is mine. I like the minimalist approach. It's super tight to the body and has no wiggle room on my 1.5" Beltman belt. :)

It was pricey but worth. It's an E-Bay find. If there's any interest I'll post the seller info. It's easy to search and find though.
 
Hi NICKCARR, love your holster. Can you post info on who you bought it from and how much? It looks like the holster pulls the shield nice and tight to the body.Many thanks for the info.
 
Those are from X-Concealment. They make great stuff at a good price. Glad to see their stuff is catching on.

This is mine with M&P9c. I use this holster literally everyday.

Nevermind I found it. But how do you like it?

It's the Wee model. It feels great. I've gone through my share of holsters like many have. These feel great no matter how long you wear it or what you are doing. I have multiple wees for my glock and j frame snubs. Their FB page is a good place to look too. Shows more variations. Good luck.
 
FoxX Holsters, baby! "FoxX Trapp" All Kydex IWB Holster

Great product, good price and outstanding customer service! But there a ton of good holster makers out there. I'm with those that say you don't have to pay an arm and a leg for some "brand name".

I've tried several different holsters both IWB and OWB for my Shield. The most comfortable, still by far, is the Cross Breed Super Tuck IWB, and the Disantis Thumb Break for the OWB application. I ware my belt very tight, keeping my britches at my waist where they belong, but more importantly, the weapon where it belongs. Both of these provide comfort and security for all day long wear. The weapon is always at the right spot for easy and quick access.
