Holster suggestions

[joespahr]

I will be carrying a S&W MP45 with the 4.5" barrel. I'm looking for an IWB holster and I would like some suggestions. Thanks in advance.

Welcome aboard.

I use a SmartCarry with this same pistol. I'm very happy with the solution.

Check out http://mp-pistol.com/. Lots of discussions about holsters for M&P as well as other M&P issues.

I'm wearing a DeSantis "Cozy Partner" IWB right now. I love it.

KyTac BraveHeart.......it got the best ratings in a recent holster round-up. I wear mine daily and can attest to their comfort, even with a fullsize Govt 1911.

I'd recommend a Matt Del Fatti, Mitch Rosen or Milt Sparks.

Quality isn't cheap and you will have to wait, but it's worth it IMHO. When you order a Holster from one of those makers take the time to order a Belt too. Holsters are designed to work as a "unit" with a proper Belt, and each maker cuts their blet slots different, if you want to get the most out of your Holster.

In the meantime, while waiting for your "cutom" handmade Holster, get a Mitch Rosen "Express Line" Holster. They don't cost much more than a Galco, you can have it in a month or less, and the quality is better than most "off the shelf" stuff.

My only connection to Mitch Rosen, Milt Sparks or Matt Del Fatti is as a very satisfied customer.

I am becoming very pleased with my Crossbreed Supertuck I got last week. It's very nice for the price. I agree to make sure you have a good gun belt.

If you use the "LINKS" tab and go to "Holsters" you'll find many manufacturers listed. My personal favorite is Haugen Handgun Leather.

For a firearm that size, I prefer a Galco Royal Guard IWB.

The Summer comfort is (IMO) the same as the royal Guard. The only difference is the leather. the Royal guard is smooth on the inside of the holster while the summer comfort is rough. I haven't notices any scratching to erither my glock or my 1911. For $20.00 cheaper I'd go with the Summer comfrot. But you can't go wrong with either choice. The 1911 is more comfortable than the glock, but thats just because of the longer barrel and narrower frame of the 1911.

+1 on the smart carry holster. I've got a 4.5 barrel eaa witness in .45 caliber that I carry in it now. it is really comfortable and you don't even need to get a new belt.. having it not pull your pants down is another plus.
