How to choose the best holster for your Smith and Wesson M&P9 M2.0 Compact Carry Comp

Choosing the right holster comes down to fit, comfort, and how you carry every day. The M&P9 M2.0 Compact Carry Comp has a beefy build and a compensator, so the holster needs to clear that muzzle without rubbing or snagging. Look for one that keeps the gun tight to your body but still gives you a clean draw. A good fit means no shifting when you move and no digging when you sit. Whether you're carrying inside your waistband or on your hip, retention matters. You want the gun secure without fighting to unholster it.

Carry Options for Smith and Wesson M&P9 M2.0 Compact Carry Comp holsters

Concealed Carry

IWB Holsters

An IWB holster tucks the Smith and Wesson M&P9 M2.0 Compact Carry Comp close to your body, which is great for everyday concealment. It works well under a T-shirt or hoodie, especially with a forward cant to help the grip angle. Since the gun has a compact slide and added length from the comp, you'll want a Smith and Wesson M&P9 M2.0 Compact Carry Comp IWB holster that shields the muzzle and spreads pressure. Adjustable ride height helps you dial in that sweet spot between concealment and comfort.

OWB Holsters

If you’re going with an OWB holster, you’ll get easier access and a more forgiving draw, especially with layers or a jacket. A good Smith and Wesson M&P9 M2.0 Compact Carry Comp OWB holster hugs the belt line and keeps the gun secure without flaring out. It’s solid for range days or open carry setups where you don’t have to worry about printing. Look for one with a slight curve to contour to your side, so it doesn’t feel bulky.

Shoulder Holsters

Shoulder holsters give you a break from the waistline and make sense if you’re sitting a lot or wearing a coat. They’re not for everyone, but if you like cross-draw or need deep concealment under a jacket, it’s a solid route. A Smith and Wesson M&P9 M2.0 Compact Carry Comp shoulder holster should distribute the weight evenly and keep the comp clear of the armpit line. Retention straps help keep it in place without slowing you down.
