    I also would recommend Alien Gear. I have several. The reasonable price got my attention. I first ordered a IWB it was very comfortable and the right amount of security. I now own other IWB and OWB holsters for them and couldn't be happier. Lifetime warranty and shell changes is a great plus too.

    Just blue locktite the hardware on them when/if you get one.

      I am partial to all leather holsters. I have a few ComTac MTAC hybrid holsters, but perfer leather. Ryan Grizzle has made a couple for me that I really like http://www.rgrizzleleather.com/iwb-holsters.html. I have a "city slicker" that is really easy to put on/off, and a "town & country 2" Thad I had lined to further protect the finish on my Les Baer 1911.

      Good luck!

        Your question is exactly why a lot of us have at least a small basket full of holsters we thought sounded good, bought it, didn't like it. Just received 2 new Alien Gear holsters cause everyone seems to love them. I don't like the IWB. The OWB I got is just ok. So far my favorite is my N82 Pro for fit and comfort.

          I think I know what I want, but I decided early I want leather, iWb, and went from there, looking for the best reviewed, well made comfortable holster.

          Interesting name you have, milt sparks is very well thought of for holsters of the type I described.
          Great input, my name Sparks57, from my Navy days, I was a Radioman (sparks were our uniform symbol for our rate) and the 57 was from my ship, the USS Lake Champlain, CG57

            +1 on alien gear... Cheap, comfortable, they don't make me sweat as bad as my other leather iwb holsters... They also have nice adjustments for height and cant on your belt. Only downside is that they are ridiculously slow. For me it was a 8 week wait time. Which would've been fine if I knew that before I ordered. Anyway, you can't beat the bang for the buck.

            Side note, and not to thread crap here. But a good belt will make or break any iwb holster. For 25 bucks you can get a black leather desantes belt for ccw. I know there are better nicer suggestions out there... I just don't have any experience with other "normal looking" gun belts.

              Milt Sparks.
              My mother always told me to be careful what you ask for.

              Just one more piece of parental advice I stupidly ignored.

                I agree, just got one and it's easily the most comfortable holster I own.

                Combine one with a Shield or PM9 and it will be the last setup you'll ever buy.

                    i like my alien gear at the lowest ride height. Foxx is also a great option that's just as comfortable and economical.
                    Have a good day!

                        These are awesome holsters. I might get an IWB for appendix carry soon.

                          ^^^ Agreed. I bought a Garrett Silent Thunder Solo for my P938 but it didn't have enough retention for me. So I bought the N82. Great retention. In fact you have to twist the gun clockwise to get it out of the holster. It take some practice but now I have no problem unholstering.

                          I like the Silent Thunder Solo and the N82 because it has only one belt clip.

                            Raw dog makes a nice small kydex hybrid with one clip. Its great for appendix carry, and very affordable. ymmv

                              I've had my ccw in the OC since Apr of last year. These are the holsters that I've gone thru:

                              Nightingale Raptor for PPQ
                              Milt Sparks VM2 for Sig P220 Carry & PPQ (VM2 incoming for my Sphinx SDP next week)
                              Crossbreed Supertuck for PPQ & PPS (wish they made one for the Sphinx SDP)
                              G-Code Incog for Sphinx SDP
                              Garrett Industries Silent Thunder for PPS

                              While they are all good holsters, the holsters that I hardly EVER use are the G-Code Incog and Garrett's Silent Thunder, plus I sold the Nightingale.

                              IMHO - Crossbreed Supertuck if you want Hybrid, or Milt Sparks VM2 if you want leather. Crossbreed holds the gun tighter to the body. Milt Sparks more comfortable. YMMV

                                For small guns like the Nano, I really like equally small holsters. I have a Desantis SoftTuk which I can hardly notice.
