Does anyone have experience with an IWB holster for the S&W M&P 9mm Compact with Thumb Safety, (which is ambidextrous)? Specifically an IWB that has protection between gun and body. I called Galco to review all of their offerings. They were honest to state that none of theirs had been tested with the Thumb safety. (Makes one want to do busines with outfits like that!) I would prefer an IWB that has thumb release strap.
I have an M&P 9c and use the CBST like the previous posters. I do not see any reason that a thumb safety would not work with it. Very well made, comfortable, concealable. Worth the wait.
Check out my holsters. One of the great parts is that they don't have issues popping the magazine out like some other hybrid holsters. SHTF Gear LLC I've got a coupon right now to save your 10%. Use coupon code New_Site
I have a M&P 9c with crimson trace laser grips on it and no safety and I use a Comptac CTAC holster, and a TT Gunleather Mikes Special Leather holster. Both are very comfortable and both should also work with the thumb safety models.
I carry mine in a Galco King Tuck. It is a 9c with the thumb safety. The only problem is the slide protector piece that extends up can disengage the thumb safety when reholstering. You just have to be mindful of it, once holstered it is a non issue. I also carry it in a custom holster OWB from CC Holsters. But the Galco is one of the best for IWB IMO. Very comfy for all day carry.
I have an M&P9c w/ thumb safety and use a Dale Fricke Archangel for AIWB, and a Comp-tac Minotaur at 3:30 (not at the same time :smile. Both work great. No problems with the thumb safety.
