Safariland 7371179411 7371 ALS Paddle S&W M&P Shield 9/40 Nylon Black

This is third holster of this type I have purchased so it goes without saying I like this product. There are so many features like ease of use and securing the weapon that make it the perfect device for concealed carry. Why do you ask am I dissatisfied with this particular holster. It has nothing to do with Bud's or really even Safariland it is in the advertising. You see my Shield has a manual thumb safety, I know it's probably too much considering the grip safety but I bought the weapon from a friend. The advertising and packaging did not indicate that the holster would not engage the locking device because the manual safety prohibits the weapon from going deep enough into the holster. That said I'll give this one to a friend with a non manual safety shield and they will love it as much as I do the other two. The ability to disengage the weapon from the holster and draw smoothly and easily with just a sight bit of thumb pressure works for me. Re-holstering is easy and there seems to be little wear on the Shield. And yes I'll but it again.
