    I carried my last three handguns in a Blackhawk Serpa with the paddle. I'm looking to explore a bit and see if there's a better outside the waistband holster for my M&P9c. I've got the IWB covered with a kydex PJ holster. Whatcha got for me INGO?

    I wish I would have brought my CompTac paddle for you to try yesterday. It is my favorite owb holster, I've owned one for my past 6 carry guns.

    Another fan of the Comp Tac paddle. I also have holsters for my M&P from Garrett Industries, Raven, and Blade-Tech and seem to always go back to the Comp-Tac paddle. Mine is a couple of years old and has been through a decent amount of training classes and has held up very well.

    For concealed OWB carry I love and use Raven Concealment System's Phantom holster. I also really like and trust Comp-Tac's stuff as well. I use a Comp-Tac holster and mag carrier or competition while EDC a G19 in my Phantom.

    I'm still a fan of leather. My M&P9C carries nicely in a Don Hume JIT Slide No. 99MP. Rides close and high and remains open for reholstering.

    I use a DeSantis pancake Leather OWB holster for mine. Sits very comfortably and has a tension screw to help retention. Holds it really tight against my body and works very well for suits and light material over shirts. I won't OC with it because I would prefer something with a little more grab or maybe even an active retention system like a thumb break or one of the Serpa holsters.

    I'm thinking my next OWB holster might actually be kydex but I haven't made up my mind yet. For IWB I'm thinking about trying some leather options.

    I got my CompTac Gladiator Minotaur in the mail today and have been wearing it around the house. So far it has felt very comfortable. It's easy to take off and put back on without removing the belt. It conceals under my extra tall shirt with no printing. The retention is fantastic as it's not too too strong or too loose.
