Lightweight polymer outside-the-waistband holster for Smith & Wesson M&P Shield and Shield Plus. Features thumb-activated retention, open-top design for reflex sights, and includes Quick Dual Release belt loop. Made in the USA.
The T-Series Level 2 Compact represents the lightest iteration of Blackhawk's proven T-Series platform, engineered for shooters who demand speed, security, and comfort in an outside-the-waistband carry solution.
Crafted from injection-molded ultra-strong polymer, this holster balances durability with minimal weight. The exceptionally smooth interior facilitates quick, reliable draws while reducing wear on your firearm's finish. Sound-dampening lining keeps your carry discreet, whether at the range or in daily use.
The dual-retention design combines adjustable passive retention with a thumb-activated release lever. Simply form your normal firing grip—the natural thumb placement automatically deactivates the retention, enabling a smooth, instinctive draw. Additional security comes from thumb-release guards and the holster's close body proximity, ensuring your firearm stays secure during movement.
The open-top configuration serves multiple purposes: it reduces overall weight, accommodates most reflex sights without modification, and allows the muzzle to clear the holster sooner during the draw stroke. Holstering is equally smooth, with no obstruction to slow your re-holster.
Includes both a Quick Dual Release (QDR) belt loop mounted to the holster and a traditional 2-slot belt loop for versatile carry positions. Made in the USA.
Fits: Smith & Wesson M&P Shield 9/40 and M&P9 Shield Plus
