20 Best Shoulder Holster Shield 9Mm (2023 Updated)

The shoulder holster fits perfectly and is exactly what I need. The best part of the sale is the best part of your company. I have a Springfield XDM and inadvertently ordered a shoulder holster for a 1911 not realizing you had one for a Glock/XD.

Your customer service department realized I had a problem and stated that your company mandate is for 100% satisfaction. They performed the exchange and solved my problem and reached your company goal of 100% customer satisfaction.

Needless to say, I will purchase my supplies from your company.

Yes , I’m very happy with my purchase. This system is comfortable to wear while driving and long term use. But it is a little hard to hide under a flannel or coat. (Conceal Carry user) I had difficulty getting a reply by e-mail or phone before I purchased this product , to ask questions about which side the actual holster was located.

I’m a right hand shooter. So it worked out that the holster is located under the left arm pit. Yes I will be a long term buyer of your products for my wife and I. Thank You.

This is such a good quality holster. I didn’t want a nylon shoulder holster for my EDC. This fit the bill perfectly. This looks like it will last for a VERY LONG TIME!!!

I like the holster just fine. It holds my pistol well. I do however like my holster to be a deeper tuck. I’m not sure if it’s just me or what but the holster I had before this is a cheap leather iwb.

Well maybe not so cheaply made but in cost it was actually cheaper than this holster I purchased here. It however is oddly enough a quality leather holster. I bought it originally for my SD 9VE but prefer to carry the smaller shield I carry now and it fits well like the bigger pistol.

I’ll have to do a few photos and vids to show what I mean but overall I like this new holster. However i feel that I’m wearing this holster when I can almost not notice I’m carrying my leather one. I do like this one very much but it feels oddly high to me is all.

I’m sure it’s just because it’s different for me is all.

I didn’t know anything about the holster other than it fit my sw 380 shield ez. When I received the holster I note it was made of some kind of plastic. I feared it would remove the finish on my new gun.

I noted it made a few scratches on my gun and decided it wasn’t for me. Here’s where the COMPANY really was good to me. They sent my money back to my credit card before I actually returned the holster.

They sent me a return postage e-mail. I sent the holster back, would have bought another one but they had no other one available. Trust them, they do and mean what they say.

Holster fits perfectly. Couldn’t ask for a better fit. Will order More holsters for the rest of my many pistols. Low profile, great price, and present no printing whatsoever. Only thing I wish for is that you guys would make Camo an option for all of your holsters.

I will spread the word to all of my MARINE buddies. We all have quite a LARGE selection of weapons. The quality of these holsters are unsurpassed! My Thank you so much. Happy Concealing! Semper Fi.

I’m giving this signature holster a 3 star review for a few reasons which involve bad design flaws which led to a failure. I would have given it a 2 star but the good customer service at Bladetech inclines me to give it an additional star.

My holster which I purchased in 2019 was only used a hand full of times per year for approximately 3 years at shooting competitions uspsa style. It had carful light use, nothing that would have warranted for it to rip open and completely break apart like a clam at the seam.

I will try to provide photos if this system allows me. The design is a one piece cast with 2, 1 millimeter or less thick spots where they bend it to make the holster. that tiny piece which is holding the entire holster together is not sufficient to withstand even light use let alone real life dangerous situations.

I contacted Bladetech about it, they covered it under warranty however I had to show proof of original purchase, photos, explanations on my use and a few other details. they charged me for shipping and quickly sent out a new signature holster.

I wish they would have given me an option to pay the difference and upgrade to the original holster which I believe is better quality (not sure how the construction is where the 1 millimeter bends are however).

for the most part the signature holster does its job well, it retains the pistol, and you can adjust the retention tightness. I like the adjustability of the whole system and all the attachments that come with it.

because of the good customer service I’m giving this signature holster a 3, but Blatetech needs to find a better construction solution for the thin wall where they bend it, because it is prone to ripping open and I’m sure my new signature holster will fail at that spot as well.

I bought this holster to use with the Smith & Wesson M&P 2. 0 flat face trigger, optics ready pistol in 9mm. I have attached pictures showing that the curved trigger M&Ps have a slide stop/release which is nearly flush with the sides of the pistol.

In the case of the flat-faced optics ready pistols they have extended the surface area by changing the geometry of the slide stop / release to no longer be flush with the pistol. This may create mechanical advantage for manipulation of the pistol though it leads to the problem shown in the last two photos where the slide stop/release gouges into the holster and in turn the holster scrapes finish off the metal.

To resolve this the design needs a mini tunnel for the slide release. The Holosun 507c X2 also scrapes against the 2 sweatshield wings a small amount. This could be alleviated with widening the gap by 1-2mm.

This would prevent rubbing against the rubber gasket for the battery compartment since the edge of the wing is right at the same level. The trigger is completely enclosed and has great retention. I am not worried about the pistol coming out unless I draw it.

The concealability is top of the line and rides very close to the body when paired with an appropriately rigid gun belt. It would be great if they made this in a dedicated 4-in version that was nicely finished off rather than having to buy a 4.

24 inch version then cut it down ourselves so that we don’t have unnecessary muzzle length.

So first things first I love the total eclipse 2. 0. Truly. easily my favorite holster ive ever had Its comfortable. when used IWB at the 5 o clock position the weapon is invisible even in relatively form fitting shirts.

the mod lok is inspired. I run the belt clips exclusively but the ability to flip the clips around and switch from OWB to IWB in seconds is brilliant. The only real gripe I have after about a month of use is that the mod lok system is creaky.

When I move you can hear audible creaking noises from the belt clips flexing in the mod lok groves, but at the end of the day this doesn’t impede the holster at all and it doesn’t really bother me but ill still probably try to figure out how to make it not do that.

There is a real issue with the Sig 228/229 version of the total eclipse though. The RMR cut on the Sig 228/229 model isn’t deep enough to actually accept a sight bearing Sig 229. I own a Sig M11-A1 (basically the government model of the P229) and I also own a P229 Legion RXP which has a Romeo1Pro on it from factory.

Unfortunately even though the holster has an RMR cut, it still forces the slide out of battery when the legion is holstered because the cut isn’t deep enough down the holster to not hit the sight. Now this isn’t really the end of the world since it is back in battery once drawn but it is a bit annoying that the weapon doesn’t have positive retention since its fighting the slide spring when holstered.

My M11, however, fits perfectly and doesn’t have these issues and since the M11 is what I’m carry on a daily basis that’s what I really cared about when buying this but its worth mentioning for anyone who does carry with a sight.

I have been a concealed carry licensee holder for 27 years here in Texas since it has been legal. There is probably not a handgun made that at one time or another I have carried in those 27 years, and all were carried in a leather holster, until now.

When Kydex first came out I thought that was the stupidest silly thing someone could do making a holster out of plastic. Blasphemy! Well, I saw the light, or a YouTube video, that caught my interest on the Tulster OWB Contour Holster.

The biggest issue I had with the Kydex type holsters was how far they stood out from the body. I like the gun close and tight against my body and from what I saw in the video that Contour holster did just that.

So, I ordered the Tulster OWB Contour Holster for my Glock G43X from Tulster and It fits close just like I like it and is more stable than any leather holster I have owned. I like the snap in and out feel knowing that gun will never leave that holster unless I pull it out.

Another leather holster goes in the holster drawer, and I am a now a proud Tulster Kydex holster owner. The Contour fits the bill for an OTW. Tulster has converted a dyed in the wool leather holster guy to plastic, er, Kydex holster owner.

Keep up the good work you have an excellent product. Job well done. My next purchase will be the Profile for my G42.

WOW! Tulster is an AMAZING company that makes a stellar holster!! First of all, I was looking for an American made holster to replace the one I already have that is less than ideal because of the SAS contours of my pistol.

To avoid making another bad choice with a holster, I wrote Tulster and asked them if they could address some of my concerns. Now I don’t want to set the expectation that my experience is their norm, but the next day I got a call from one of the owners.

He took time out of his day to call a random potential customer. Who does that?!?! He was genuine, authentic and, to me, represented the pinnacle of what an American company could/should be. He earned a customer for life.

I ordered their Profile holster and augmented it with their 1 × 1. 5″ DCC Monoblock Metal Clip – Profile/Echo Series. I couldn’t be happier. Not only was their customer service an unparalleled experience, their product is extremely well crafted and refined and shows in every contour that Tulster genuinely cares about making a product worth every penny spent.

The Sig with the Lima slides in with that satisfying click and it’s also super comfortable to wear as my edc. Thank you TULSTER!.

As we all know, there is a plethora of places on the market making Kydex holsters, and this review isn’t about bashing any of those products as I own some of those other brands. But here are the key points I found that make my Tulster purchase spot on for me: 1.

) GREAT finish, the holster is professionally finished, no sharp edges to snag on clothing or skin, easy on and off the belt/pants. 2. ) Adjustable cant, easy for appendix carry or if you aren’t into that great for side carry, i.

e. 3-o’clock. 3. ) Fits my SIG like a glove and the retention is solid, like that it has an adjustable retention screw, full sweat shield and a very positive click when I holster my weapon. 4. ) I like the way the trigger guard is cut which allows me a good purchase on the grip of my pistol, fast and easy access and then to reholster it.

5. ) I like the raised sight channel and the muzzle being open ended which is a bigger plus if I were carrying it OWB. Lastly, love that it’s made in the USA and in Oklahoma, this has been one of my better purchases with regards to holsters, and I have zero regrets on getting it.

This is one that won’t end up in the box of other holsters that didn’t quite measure up to the hype on the website. Hope you get one and like yours as much as I like my Profile.

I have owned many holsters IWB & OWB over the past 25yrs. This holster has good retention keeping your weapon in the holster where it belongs. There is another key point I need to touch base on here.

The retention is strong enough to keep your weapon from accidentally coming out although you will have no issues drawing your weapon in any situation. There’s no tugging, struggling or super human strength needed to get down to business.

God forbid the time comes to protect yourself or others in a situation that has gone bad and has you in fear of your life and or someone else’s life. I can testify that with a little practice you will be able to draw from the holster possibly quicker than any other holster you have ever used, owned , etc.

GREAT PRODUCT AND THE HOLSTER CLAW KIT IS HANDS DOWN THE WAY TO GO FOR WEAPON CONCEALMENT AND PERSONAL COMFORT!! BTW I am a bigger guy and love it!!! I highly recommend both of these products to everyone who is looking for durability , safety, comfort and their new go to holster for any occasion! Thank you for such an amazing product! I will be ordering more in the near future.

Tks Again!!!👍🏻💪🏻💯%.

This is a very comfortable fit for an IWB holster that with the added claw does an incredible job of reducing printing, even with a light t-shirt on. I also enjoy the fact that the ride height and cant can be adjusted.

If you wear a standard width military tactical belt, you’ll want the larger belt clip as well. If this thing had a pad, it would be the best single holster in the market in my opinion. I carry my pistol in at the apex and it’s very comfortable.

The pistol grip is strong and I never worry about the pistol falling out, and the ability to quickly pull the pistol out is great. I enjoy the fact that the safety on the pistol can be kept on as well.

I’m 5’10” and 190lbs and I have no comfort or accessibility complaints at all.

The holster provides a range of angles and a very strong retention hold despite being very minimal. After a little adjustment I am now able to carry my firearm in the appendix position all day with little discomfort, even while bending over to tie shoes etc.

I opted to add the Claw feature and highly recommend it to everyone. Combined with the adjustable angle, the Claw allowed me to find the optimal fit so that there is zero printing except in the most extreme positions.

The single belt hook is very sturdy but allows for quick removal of the holster when required. I am very pleased with this purchase overall.

Very well designed! It fits my S&W M&P 380 very well. The first only modification I had to do was notch out where the magazine release was. The holster kept on hitting the release every time I sat down and my right waste would hit the holster.

I bought this for my Ruger LC9s thinking maybe this might be too much holster for this diminutive firearm. When I got it I knew immediately it was a perfect choice! It’s gorgeous leather, and when I placed the Ruger in it the fit was exact.

I held it upside down, the firearm did not fall. Presentation is immediate, and there was no break-in period. That’s amazing for an all leather holster. I highly recommend this holster.

Bought this holster for my S&W. 380 Bodyguard and am GREATLY pleased with it. The gun fits in it perfectly. The leather is a very good quality and it is also a also a very good looking holster. It’s small to accommodate the Bodyguard and fits nicely on my hip.

I would HIGHLY recommend this for anyone who is looking for a Concealed Carry Holster for their S&W. 380 Bodyguard. As a hint, which I’m sure most everyone already knows, I let the Bodyguard sit in the holster for about 2 weeks without using it so the leather molded itself to the gun for a PERFECT fit.

P. S Bought for mu S&W 4o cal Shield and my review for that is exactly the same. Great fit GREAT holster.

I used this holster extensively for a couple of years. Easy to hide gun with this setup; however, this holster holds firearm wayyyyy too loosely. Any singnificant jolt or bump will knock your gun out of the holster.

I have a somewhat active lifestyle and have regularly had to worry about my gun falling out just climbing and jumping around. Screws also come loose on this regularly (even after having applied threadlocker).

Screws seem to be about 30 thousandth off. Up until recently I could not find a holster slim enough but with good retention. I cannot recommend this holster if you are regularly on the move or even moderately active.

Get something better, a few dollars more will get you a safariland 575 ifb holster or something that is actually quality.

Bought for my P365XL. Not the biggest fan, it was okay for what it was and price, but reholstering was near impossible due to the open design of the trigger guard. That meant practicing a draw stroke required you to draw, then remove the holster and snap it back over the trigger guard.

If you’re looking for something cheap with a claw that can secure a smaller pistol it’s not a bad choice, but has its limitations. If the kydex was stiffer and held it’s form better reholstering wouldn’t be an issue.

I have purchased and used many holsters and companies over the years, some good, some not so much. When I recently purchased a S&W Shield Plus I decided to give Tulster a try after reading many good reports about the company.

I ordered their Profile IWB model. First of all, shipping was very fast, ordered on a Wednesday and in my mailbox on Saturday. Quality of build and fit to the gun is exceptional. I love the easy on/off feature of this model and it’s comfortable to carry.

Tulster offered a 10% discount for joining their mailing list and when I wasn’t smart enough to find where to put the discount code in the order they even went back and credited my credit card for me! Great company and great product, I highly recommend, thanks Tulster!.

I reluctantly decided to try IWB again after having a bad experience with 2 other holster makers in the past. This Tulster holster has completely changed my perspective and given me options as I can conceal with just a T shirt and not a untucked outer shirt when carrying OWB.

The holster is comfortable and secure with the metal belt clips and the adjustment for cant was easy and stays in place. This pistol rides tight to the torso and is easy to draw and re-holster. Very impressed and will order again for my other pistol.

By the way, shipping was very fast and the quality, fit, and finish, is excellent.

I’ve been carrying for three years and I have never been totally comfortable while using several different kydex holsters IWB. After my recent purchase of a new Shield Plus, I searched “best IWB holster for shield plus” and this popped up.

I ordered it and I am amazed by the comfort and ability to quickly put it on and take it off. It feels great ! The design is sleek and smooth. Fit and finish is excellent and keeps my my gun secure. Rides nice at 4 o’clock position.

Covers the trigger completely and is just a well made, well thought out design that form fits my Shield Plus perfectly. Easy to draw. Holster stays in place. Very comfortable and easy to carry. Although tension is adjustable, It was perfect right outa the box.

Kudos Tulster!.

I recently acquired (3) IWB holsters for a 380EZ, 9mmEZ & M2. 0 9mm 4″ Compact. Holsters quality is top notch, however on the 4″ Compact model, if I activate the manual safety and reinsert pistol into the holster, the sweat shield against left side of pistol disengages the safety.

Not a good thing. It appears this holster was designed around the “non-safety” variant of the pistol. Something to keep in mind. Hope to hear back from Amberide about this issue.

I have owned Alien Gear holsters for a number of years. Not only are these holsters constructed using the highest-quality materials, the customer-service is always superb. This 4. 0 Sig P365 holster disappears when being worn and is super comfortable all day long.

I HIGHLY recommend these IWB 4. 0 holsters.

Supremely comfortable holster with adjustable retention and unlike other holsters that attach to your belt in only one (1) location, the cant of your pistol doesn’t change and create awkward moments when it is at an odd angle and holding your shirt / overgarment up.

I had a single-point attachment holster for a few years and it was OK, but I was always reminded of when I was carrying and had to keep readjusting both the cant and the location on my belt as I sat down / got in and out of vehicles etc.

I wore this all day in blistering 98 deg F North Carolina heat and was completely comfortable. Highly recommended.

Alien Gear is the best for IWB concealed carry. Super comfortable while standing, walking and sitting. Even while driving these are comfortable! Im a loyal customer for life

I ordered a holster for my EDC M&P Shield Plus. Along with the holster I purchased the holster claw in order to give myself multiple options on ways to configure it to try and work best for my body. The quality of the actual holster itself is decent.

The kydex mold fit the firearm well and retention can easily be adjusted with the set screw. However, if you are planning to use this holster for appendix carry, I would probably look at other options.

Even with the claw attachment in a few different settings, this holster does not do a good job at avoiding printing. There is no aspect of the holster that pushes the handle of the firearm towards your person to avoid the magazine from protruding into your shirt.

The claw itself only attaches with one single screw, which means that it can actually rotate while wearing the holster making it rather unusable. I don’t mind using it for strong side 3 or 4 o’clock position IWB carry if you are wearing a sweatshirt or flannel or something to cover the printing, but the single clip and lack of good support to angle the handle better makes this difficult for me to use on a daily basis.

Good company, good quality, not-so-great design IMO. Would not purchase again for my specific use.

This claw works as intended with a definite improvement for pivoting the holster to help stop printing of the bottom grip/mag area. I carry and use it AIWB and no doubt, an improvement. Hat’s off to the ingenious design that allows the claw to lock up securely and tightly in the desired position without increasing or affecting the retention tightness.

My ONLY complaint is the small removable pads. They are great except that small oval presents a small point of contact or “footprint” against a stiff EDC belt (I use a Nexbelt). This sometimes causes the whole package to pivot forward slightly when sitting.

I ended up using my claw without the pad, which presents a bigger/longer footprint against the belt and seems to prevent that pivot. I would love to see WTP produce a new oval that is longer, ummm maybe 1-1 1/4 inch long, rather than these little ovals.

Seems that would put a larger point of contact against a good belt.

I watched several videos on YouTube that all highly recommended this holster, in addition to wanting to support a USA made product, I bought this holster. It came in the mail fairly quickly and I tried it immediately.

Oddly enough my gun slid in with no “click”…. as can be heard with well fitting polymer holsters. I inspected it further and it was obvious to the eye that the holster was not tight around the firearm at all.

There is a large gap between the holster and the trigger guard, and the holster is not snug anywhere. With any slight tilt of the holster, the firearms slides right out…. The quality simply is not there.

It’s obvious that this holster is a dud and the QC department missed it. The return policy says 100% guaranteed, yet you have to pay for shipping to get a refund. I believe that if the company sent out a poor quality product, they should cover the cost to retrieve that product.

Been looking for a holster for my Taurus PT-92 AFS (with rail) for quite sometime, but have had very bad luck finding anything. Everything I find is either made for the Beretta 92 (without rail) or too expensive! I visited Cabela’s in St.

louis MO where a firearms associate there helped me by going through each holster, disregarding the manufacturer’s recommendation on the packaging. He said that holsters are made to fit multiple handguns and trying them out is the best way to find one.

The CM226B (for the Glock 19) fits it like a glove. The PT-92 barrel protrudes from the holster about 1 to 1-1/2 inches, but us very secure; covers the trigger completely. Very snug, but not too snug.

I wish I remembered the associate’s name, but I don’t (shame on me). Great holster at a great price, and great customer service.

I bought a new Sig 1911 and need a cancelled carry holster. I have purchased Galco before (9MM Walther) and they manufacture a high quality product. My only complaint with both holsters is that they are a tight fit and need a lot of work to make them a smooth draw.

Several experts have told me that the Sig 1911 has a slightly larger slide then other manufactures. I called Sig and asked if they had a recommended holster manufacture; they do not according to their customer service.

Galco customer service offered the suggestion to wear the firearm in a heavy baggie for several hours a day “in your home”, really? I will try what I have done with the 9MM, continually draw and reholster.

Something has to give.

I purchased this holster for a good outside the pant holster. It holds my para 45 very well. The angle is very good for drawing. I plan to use this for my IDPA shoots. I also am wearing it as a under my close holster.

with a web belt it hold the gun very tight to my body and you can not even tell I ma wearing a gun.

I bought Vedder Springfield Armory EMP 3″ 9mm OWB LightDrawTM Holster after extensive research online, and I must say I was not disappointed with the purchase. Over the years I have bought and used holsters from different brands (both IWB, OWB, Kydex, Leather, etc.

). This is by far the best holster I purchased. I got the one with the carbon fiber finish on the outside and standard black on the inside, along with the pancake clips. What a pleasure! FINISH: A very well-finished product.

The edges are well-rounded (no sharp edges). The holster looks super elegant and feels extremely rugged. WEAR FIT: The holster sits snug on the hip. Best concealability achieved for an OWB holster. The pancake clips make this happen.

These clips also add to the inner curvature of the holster and allow a fair bit of sideways movement on the belt to change the position of the gun on the belt (appendix to four-o-clock). FIREARM FIT: The SA EMP 3″ 9mm fits in the holster like a glove.

There is a distinct perceptible click when the pistol is placed, reassuring that the gun will stay in and not slip out (even with rough body movements, rolling around). The retention screw is a significant addition, allowing adjustment of retention tightness.

CUSTOMER SERVICE: Fantastic and highly professional customer service! Prompt and satisfying response to any questions I asked. The ordering was quick and easy. The product was shipped efficiently (and received on time) and I was able to track the shipment.

FINAL THOUGHTS: Highly recommend this product (and brand) to anyone looking for custom-fit, great quality holsters. I am a fan and a customer for life! I hope they make the POCKET LOCKER version for my SA EMP 3″ 9mm available soon.

I’ve finally found a Kydex holster that actually fits the Glock 42: the Vedder ProDraw Paddle holster. My handgun fit perfectly in the holster right out of the Vedder cloth bag (in which it ships). A half turn on the retention screw was all that I needed to get the desired ‘snap’ and fit when drawing and holstering my Glock.

The craftsmanship and quality of the ProDraw was immediately evident: smooth edges around the entire holster, snug fit without any gaps, excellent sight channel for easy holstering (for any variety of sights), excellent size for concealed carry, innovative paddle that fits over a belt or the pants, and high quality material construction.

In short, the Vedder ProDraw holster is the perfect Kydex holster for those having difficulty finding a holster claiming to fit a Glock 42. Incidentally, I recently purchased two paddle Kydex holsters from two other well known vendors for my Glock 42.

Both of the paddle holsters left gaps around the handgun and required some adjustment for a somewhat reasonable fit, although far from satisfactory. My impression was that these holster were made for the Glock 43, but advertised for the Glock 42.

Neither of the other holsters came close to the craftsmanship of quality of the Vedder ProDraw. I considered a leather holster, but most leather holsters have belt loops for 1-3/4 inch belts: Three problems – 1) most belts today are 1-3/8s inches, unless a belt is special ordered and a ‘gun’ belt; 2) most leather holsters move when a handgun is drawn, unless sinched very tight around the waist; and, 3) most pants for men only accommodate ‘up to’ a 1.

5 inch belt. The paddle on the ProDraw has a rubberized surface that adheres to pants, whether used in belt or pants mode. This unique paddle produces a snug fit that keeps the holster in place for drawing or holstering.

I highly recommend the ProDraw for anyone looking for a holster for the Glock 42, as well as other models of handguns. Now I know why the motto at Vedder is “America’s most comfortable holsters”.

This is an excellent Mag Holster. I have purchased two now. Perfect retention, excellent construction, and very comfortable to carry. I purchased two, one right hand draw, and a left handed draw about a month later.

The second purchase was to overcome the only down side I see in the design, and is my opinion only. The orientation with rounds facing forward in the holster requires a 180 degree rotation of the Magazine after draw before loading into the firearm.

An orientation of the rounds being stowed in a rear facing direction would allow a more direct, smooth draw stroke motion up into the firearm for faster reloading. The only reason for rating 4 vs 5 star rating.

4. 5 in my book. If you are willing to overlook that, it is an excellent product. Shipping was very fast on both items. I will definitely try out more of their products in the near future.

Item is of a v high quality as you expect from a German manufacturer. Its easy to adjust and comfortable to wear. My only issue was the delivery. Expected delivery was Monday but it arrived the following Saturday.

Light weight durability is good fits as well

This holster is well made and we’ll worth the money good quality would recommend this item delivery time not as stated but worth waiting on this is the second I have bought

I purchased one of these back in Sep 2017 for my SCCY CPX-2, 9mm, after shopping around, and reading about people buying several holster’s before finding one they really like, I felt pretty lucky as my first one fit like it was custom made for me.

I decided to start carrying my Springfield XD-40 Subcompact, so the holster I wanted to get was an easy decision, I received it yesterday, and I love it as much as the first one I bought from you guys.

It holds my gun like a glove,but allows me to access it without any problems, just like the the SCCY, it fit great right out of the box, without any adjustments, although it has plenty of adjustment point’s on it.

A great product at a reasonable price, I am a customer for life, and would recommend these holsters to anyone that carries concealed like I do. Keep up the good work guys.

Very comfortable right out the box. Easy to tune to your personal taste. Never had a double clip iwb before. Will never go back. Belts clips work great. Holster is stiff at first, hey its new, after wearing a couple hours it conformed to its new location nicely.

Very nice retention, not worried about firearm falling out. All in all its quality, at this price its a steal, feel guilty, kinda. Will be purchasing one for all my pistols now. Thank you.

Good fit, Very Adjustable, Quality made, Comfortable IWB Holster. Allows ease of access and maintains concealment of firearm. Also allows for a good combat grip. As a firearms trainer I would highly recommend this holster.

Dont let the inexpensive price fool you.

The Raven Concealment Vanguard is the easiest least obtrusive way to carry concealed IWB I have found. It holds the pistol securely at the proper height, and angle while protecting the trigger without adding bulk around the individual’s belt line.

A must have if you want to carry with a round in the camber of the pistol.

This thing is awesome- feels great while wearing, great retention (although I do wish the retention pressure was adjustable- the screws are only for adjusting the pocket clip angle) , and the belt clip works great even when not wearing a belt and even with basketball shorts.

Very happy with it so far.

A very slim and concealable design. Perfect for every day carry. Good quality plastic.

I can tell anyone who has made it to this review, just finding a company that makes a holster for a Smtih & Wesson M&P 2. 0 in 10mm is a real challenge. there are a few out there, but not many. Some make no distinction between the two sizes available.

My first order from another company did not fit al all, despite being handmade; supposedly for a M&P 2. 0 10mm. Long story short, Vedder came through with flying colors. a quality product with a variety of color and pattern choices, that fits perfectly, and absolutely no problem with the high sights catching on the holster.

And yes, the order came quickly with not problems. And yes, it can be cut for a red dot optic. Pick your color or cosmetic, and buy it. you won’t regret it!.

Previously, I was not a regular concealed carry person. I am in my 60s, overwight and the most comfortable way to carry was OWB which was concealable in winter outside but not so much indoors. I saw the ComfortTuck on youtube and decided to give it a try.

I ordered one for my M&P Shield. I received it in about a week, put it on at the 4-5 o’clock position and wore it comfortably the first day. I now conceal carry at church, shopping, driving in my truck, and pretty much everywhere except when I am working out of my home office.

By having a quality gun belt, and pants with a waist size 2 inches bigger than normal, I can wear the ComfortTuck all day. I also turned around a purchased another for my CZ 75D PCR Compact. This is a much heavier gun but I can still wear it all day, although I will say the shield is much more comfortable due to the much lighter weight, but both work fine.

As we come out of Winter in Missouri this will be my main carry option until winter comes again. I am very happy with my choice.

High quality materials are used throughout. The leather against your body gets more comfortable with each use. The comfort leather shapes to your body. The holster grips my Masada and holds it in place even in a run.

I am a bigger dude and have tactical love handles and I wear this at my 430 position. The pistol is quick to draw. Even with the combat cut to give you a dater draw the pistol doesn’t touch your skin.

One of the other great features I tried out was the adjustable clip height. You can lower the holster position to bring the pistol grip closer to your belt. I could super conceal my full size pistol by using the adjustable clips.

The more I lowered it the harder the draw. So I adjusted back to the best fit where it offered the best draw and concealment. I highly recommend this holster for EDC. I WILL 1000% recommend Vedder. The fit and finish, ingenuity, use of high quality materials there is really no better choice.

I ordered the non battle cut holster. Maybe the battle cut won’t have this problem. The holster presses against the magazine release and when wearing the holster I found the magazine was unseated and could have fallen out had I drawn the gun.

After reseating the magazine I found that the problem kept reoccurring. It is a standard magazine release and is not bigger or not stock in any way. I cut the holster around it and now it’s fine, but something to be aware of.

Otherwise the holster is great. It’s comfortable and holds the gun well. I wouldn’t recommend it because if you don’t catch this issue and happen to have to use your gun, you could have just one shot and your mag will be on the floor.

I now most gun owners would notice this but someone might not.

I’ve been a customer of Blade-Tech for many years now. Their products are the very best on the market bar none! Built from a very solid Kydex mold. They really pay attention to every detail such as a positive “Click” when holstering you handgun, to an adjustable retention system, to an adjustable cant to perfectly fit every shooting style.

You definitely do NOT get a thin, cheaply made piece of plastic that’s one size fits all! Each holster is precisely cut and formed specifically to your handgun features such as the ambidextrous slide stops of the Glock to a lower cut to accommodate a red dot optics system on many other handguns.

The price is much lower than other holsters on the market and you get more than you bargain for. Competition shooters will love the drop offset attachment offered to lower your handgun for a much quicker presentation to the target.

The Blade-Tech “Tek-Lok” system secures your holster to most size belts with adjustable shims that you can add or remove as needed. In my opinion, the very best products on the market for every shooter and every situation! I will be a loyal customer for many years to come.

Thank you Blade-Tech.

Does not fit the S&W M&P Shield 2. 0 chambered in. 45ACP. The. 45ACP muzzle is considerably larger in circumference than the 9mm/. 40 and this holster does not allow the firearm to properly seat, or comfortably draw from it.

The muzzle is squeezed sooooo tight by the holster at the muzzle end that the holster bends/flexes when the gun in inserted. This flex actually distorts the proper contour and alignment of the holster and doesn’t allow the gun to be pulled straight up & out because the gun is now wedged into the kydex & when I tried to draw the wedging became worse.

Also, the magazine button release will impact the holster before the firearm is fully seated. I’ve made modifications to the holster to allow me to use it for now. But I will be looking for other options immediately.

Sorry BT.

I’ve owned a Blade-Tech holster for my 9mm Tanfoglio for quite a few years and I’ve been very happy with it. It’s held up extremely well considering the abuse It’s taken in USPSA competitions. I needed a new holster for my recently acquired Beretta 92FS.

Naturally I went right to Blade-Tech knowing that I’d be getting a really good quality and durable holster. It’s a perfect fit as I expected it would be. I also purchased the dropped and offset attachment for my competition rig.

It’s a perfect setup. Now I’ll grab a couple of mag holders to go with it and I’ll be range ready for spring shooting. Good work guys! You manufacture a fine product. Keep it up.
