OK, any suggestions for a good, inexpensive paddle holster that would fit my SW40F??
yeah, I got sucker punched on that one but CDNN told me to send it back but it will cost me $10 in shipping and time to do it. But I know for a fact the BlackHawk #: 410025BK-R is the big dawg for the SDVE series along with the M&P and some Glocks. The hell of it is, the pistol was $17, and $10 shipping, so I will be out that $10 and $10 more to ship. You live and learn but it always cost you money. Got mine at Buds. later men
I orderd and got the S&W M&P 9/40 Retention Black Holster New Israeli Tactical as was suggested. Gun goes in nicely but will not sink in deep enough for the pistol lock to engage the trigger frame. Defeats the purpose of the gun being secure in the holster.
If you want a polymer holster just to hold the gun and draw quickly, like a Fobus, then that is what you are getting but will this pistol lock in a SD 40 or 9, the answer is no, not a chance. Me and a special ops friend tried it today and that part of the holster that houses the trigger housing is about 3/4" to shallow. I would not recommend this holster for anythinh other than a plain $17 holster but it will not lock your SD in a holster made for an MP. This was the exact same holster as was recommended here and it is wrong. I have one for sale if some wants it, $16.99 plus $9.99 shipping for a grand total of $26.98, can send USPS. Read the posts on here, I am taking my defense CCW 's advice and buying a Blackhawk serpa. He knows a guy that makes leather custom hlosters. Anybody with an MP, I got your holster but not for your SD. You live you learn. message me if you want to buyn this thing. I won' use it. MichaelI got one for you turnersapien. Just say the word, private message or what and I will put that bad puppy on you. Not for me.
Just something you folks with the serpa holster should be aware of.

It may not affect you but be aware of it.
This is the only reason I looked elsewhere for a holster.
Good to know, but i try not to roll around in snow and mud with my gun on me. I take too much pride in my pistols to takr the chance of damaging them like that,lol

I have been looking around for best price on the web for the BlackHawk #: 410025BK-R CQC Serpa Paddle and or belt holster. Nogt a 4105 but the one abpve this is a level 2 and it is awesome. My new M&P 22LR fit it perfect. What are the best sites you have found. $38 is about the best I have found. Suggestions? Thanks guys. Also just got a set of Dave Dawson's optic fiber sights for the new pistol. Night and day difference. Installed Apec triggers in the SD9 and 40 and what a difference. Back to sites for the holster. This holster is by far the best for the M&P 9, 40, 22LR and the SD40 and SD9s. Awesome. Now going to order my new guiderods from Galloway Precision.
This IS the droid..er...holster you are looking for great quality and low price (cant beat 17$) trust me you will like it.
