Iwb Tuckable Holster For New M&p Shield

[Rising Sun Leather Co]

really neat and simple design. I'm curious why you didn't sew the entire clip to the body.

That's why it's called a "tuckable" IWB. You can tuck your shirt in under the clip.

I get it now. I have 2 "famous" iwb's and they have the clips attached to the body. My shirt just blouses over the grip and tucks in on either side. I like this so much better. Can't believe the other "famous" holsters aren't assembled this way!!!!

What he said.

The wife likes me to be neat when I go out dressed up. This improves the line of my shirt and keeps me looking spiffy.

Thanks for the complements.

Looks great! I like the copper rivet. I may have to try

that next time. Good job.

How well does the holster stay put on a quick draw?

Since its held in place with the clip to the belt and the pressure of your body against the entire holster back very well. I have not had it move at all when pulling the gun out as fast as possible.

Cool. I've read mixed reviews on using an open ended metal belt clip vs. a loop, as the whole holster might come out with the gun at a very inopportune moment.

Looks good. What is the leather thickness on the tuckable piece?

Just make sure you use a clip that wraps around the belt and under the belt. If it is an open ended clip that could happen but the ones I use has an end that goes under the best leather and presses up against the back of the clip.

This is the one I use. It is also available from Springfield leather.

If you are at all concerned or using a full size weapon I would use this clip.

It required a little slot in the leather down near the rivet but you will not pull it off the belt without lifting the clip.

Both are good. The smaller one is best for compacts and sub-compacts. The large for Full size firearms.
