What is a Good IWB Holster for CC of M&P?

[78Staff]

I picked up a Galco King Tuk today for the Shield - still fiddling and configuring it so can't really offer much of a review. Buddy is very happy with his Hidden Holster Hybrid(also for a Shield) - which offers both IWB and OWB (by adding belt slots to the leather. I didn't really care to do OWB with a hybrid, I would just use a different holster for that ie Summer Special or similar. Local shop had the Galco, I have some other Galco leather I like, so figured I would try it out. Pretty reasonable cost as well.

Anyway, I have noticed the King Tuk seems comfortable, although I suffer from No Backside disease, so I find if I put it to far back there's no umm... posterior there really to help support it. So I have it more at 3 o'clock vs 4-5 o'clock. Like I said, still figuring it out. B/c of my lack of arse I had leaned toward a single clip tuck design like the N82 or Infidel, Sof Tuc even, but hard to find those locally.

Kusiak makes some nice single clip holsters. If you want top of the line leather, check out hbeleatherworks.com, Eric makes some nice holsters. I love the Pro TL, it has an offset clip to reduce thickness.

The MTAC by CompTac works great and is a superior quality to any other I have!

I just got mine from Rubicon Tactical few days ago. His prices are very reasonable and he'll customize any way you want. So far it's very comfortable and conceals really well. Michael even put a "build your own" holster page on the site which allows you to get really creative and try something out of the box.

That single point for connection is interesting, I thought that was a terrible idea until I realized the contact point is actually on the slide. Probably draws quite well. I should imagine a second would be more solid though.

How are you getting on with it, does it twist around or is it good and stable?

Ok, so a year later and I just see this question from PasterofMuppets. Sorry bud, my bad.

To answer your question, the holster is very stable. Two point connection would be very good, which he makes, but I don't believe those are tuckable. The only problem I've found is that the attachment point protrudes and prints below your belt line when you have a shirt tucked in. It has caused a hole to wear in my work Carhardt pants. I love the holster, but will have to discuss this issue with the maker to find another solution.

I have the Desantis TuckThisII. Comfy but not as thin as kydex. Not crazy about the retention on the mag, it almost falls out and I don't have much confidence in it. The weapon itself is very secure. I do like the J-belt hook, the fore and aft adjustability, and it is ambidextrous. So, not 10/10, but a solid 7. I'll likely get another holster later, but I'm hoping to avoid a drawer full of rejects.

Edit: sorry. Reply to an old post. My eyes aren't too good, especially on the iPhone.

I always recommend www.firearmholster.com. Here's mine with my XDS that I just traded for a 9c. Gonna order one of these for the 9c for sure. Fleece backing for comfort, high quality, affordable. You choose leather AND stitching colors.
