While I'm waiting for Bravo Concealment to release a holster for the 2.0 Compact; what holsters are you guys running?

My full size M&P holsters from Vedder Holsters fit it perfectly. It was one of the reasons I bought it.

Same here.  All my fullsize holsters fit it great.  And with the very little difference in overall length don't have a lot of extra space past the barrel.

I ordered one from JM Custom, he is the only one that had this exact model listed as an option on his site that I could find. He makes the best AIWB holster I have tried for my Glock so I am looking forward to getting the M&P one.

I'm using the Comp-Tac I bought 11 years ago for my full size. Fits perfect.

I don't have any other M&P holsters (except for Shield) so I'll just see what Bravo comes up with I guess; if nothing I'll get a full size. Thanks guys!

I just ordered a Bravo OWB for the full size and it works great with my 2.0 compact. The slide is only .25 inches or so longer, and at under 50 bucks and a week to deliver was great.  Since all the retention is around the trigger guard there really isn’t a meaningful difference. I probably won’t ever buy a 2.0 compact size one.

I sent a message to Bravo about the availability of a 2.0 Compact holster and got this response, so I may just go ahead and order the full size. 

Thank you for the interest in Bravo Concealment. I’m not quite sure when or if we will have the Smith & Wesson M&P Compact 2.0 available. However, we can accommodate to the Smith & Wesson M&P 2.0 Compact. You would need to purchase the regular Smith & Wesson M&P 4.25 2.0. The holster will only have a barrel length of .25 extra. It is just a tad longer that the Smith & Wesson M&P Compact 2.0. Hope this helps. Feel free to email or contact us with further questions or concern.

That's what I did, hoping it comes in the mail today.

Just got my Bravo DOS for my 2.0 compact. Normally I prefer Raven (in the old Phantom days) and JMC for Kydex. Since Raven isn't making Phantoms anymore and my JMC order might still be a few weeks out I thought I would give Bravo a try.

This is the DOS holster for the regular 4.25 size. Fit seems just about perfect to me, retention and draw are fine. I might add just a touch more retention around trigger guard but maybe not.

I tried to show the muzzle end, you can tell there is pretty much no real noticeable gap. Since the barrel is only 1/4 inch shorter I can understand why they are considering not even bothering to make a compact size. If I didn't know it I would think it was made for a compact.

I could do with a little more inward cant in the grip, likely because I am used to my JMC AIWB with the claw. I am going to add some neoprene to the bottom back of this one to tilt it even more. It looks like the Raven claw would fit it, I might give that a try to.

So for the price I would say it is not bad. Not a JMC by any means but it will do until my JMC AIWB 2.5 comes in.

T.Rex Arms now has holsters for the Compact model. I just ordered a Light Compatible Raptor for an APL. I wanted to try the slightly larger light over my current apl compact.

I ordered one from JMC as well.

The different between the full size and compact is probably like 1/16'' so full size holsters work fine.

Here is the latest findings I have on holsters for the 2.0 compact.

Note, just about everyone I've talked to is making one holster for both the full size and compact M&P. Since the barrels are only like a 1/4" difference I guess they decided to just use one holster for both. I have several of the models below and can confirm that the compact fits in them perfectly and I don't even notice the extra 1/4" of space.

JM Custom Kydex makes them. He even has them available for quick ship. I ordered two and have them already. They are fantastic like everything he does.

Bravo Concealment has them for quick ship.

Knightfall Customs makes them and ships real fast. I order an AIWB and it shipped the next day.  

Incog said they are planning on adding one.

LAGTactical said they will add support soon.

TREX arms has it available for a custom order.

Milt Sparks is taking orders for them with a 10-16 week lead.

I have a Bravo Torsion on the way. The extra .25 from the 4.25" model will probably help the holster tuck a little better, considering how the bottom my AIWB G19 holsters sit right above my pubis which allows the gun to flop around.

Was going to order a JMCK but I figure I could use the money saved for RMR milling.
