I just picked up my new M&P Shield Friday with the intent of it being my EDC, and now I need to find a holster for it. Currently I need something for OC, as it's only been a month since I submitted for my CCDW, and obviously I haven't received my permit yet. I was hoping for something with level 2 retention, but Blackhawk doesn't seem to have anything for the Shield. Does anyone have any suggestions or experience with holsters for the Shield?

I don't know of any Level 2 holsters for the Shield, for that matter, there are few OWB holsters custom fit for the Shield at all. There are a lot of IWB holsters, since that's why most people buy the Shield...

Fobus and Comp-Tac both make Level 1 OWB kydex holsters... http://www.fobusholster.com/products/S_ ... 856-0.html http://www.comp-tac.com/product_info.ph ... cts_id=182

Good luck in your search!

Yeah, I was afraid of that... The reason I bought the Shield was for its size for concealment purposes, but my CCDW application has only been in for a month, so I probably have another 2 months or so before I actually get my permit. Thanks for the links, I'll look into them.
