Buy Galco Miami Classic Shoulder System for S & W M & P 9/40 (Tan, Right-hand)Galco Miami Classic Shoulder System for S & W M & P 9/40 (Tan, Right-hand) Product Description:
Product Description
Our Miami Classic is quite possibly the most imitated shoulder holster system in the world. A direct descendant of the original shoulder system first introduced by Galco in 1970 (then the Famous Jackass Leather Company), the Miami Classic has since become the favorite of professionals worldwide. A key component of this patented shoulder system is its spider harness. All four points of the spider harness pivot independently and are connected by our unique clover shaped Flexalon swivel back plate, which is a Galco trademark. This results in a perfect fit and lasting comfort for all sizes and shapes. This system is constructed of premium saddle leather and includes holster, harness, ammo carrier and a set of system screws. The Miami Classic is fully modular. Optional accessories and components may be purchased separately. Made for semiautomatic pistols and some revolvers, the Miami Classic is available in right hand draw in tan or black finish.

Only Half Good
By Charles
I have a lot of Galco holsters and I have always been pleased with the fit and quality of their products. So, when I decided I wanted a good shoulder holster for my S&W M&P 9, Fullsize, the first place I looked was Galco. I found this Miami Classic Rig here on Amazon for about $20 cheaper than enywhere else, so I ordered it. I already own a Galco Jackass Shoulder Rig for my Glock 19 and I absolutely love it. I would have ordered the same style for my M&P9, but Galco does not make it for the M&P pistols. The only shoulder holster they make for the M&P is the Miami Classic. I figured that it was still Galco, so why not give it a shot. First of all, the quality and construction was top notch, as I had expected. However, I quickly found some flaws with the design. First, the pistol fit into the holster nicely, but I quickly realized I had a problem with the Miami Classic style. Because the pistol is completely horizontal, you are going to have major problems with it printing on both the back and the front. I have an M&P9c Compact that fits in this holster as well and it still prints very noticeably. If you are a big guy (and by big guy I mean 48" chest or bigger, you probably won't have as much of a problem with this as I did at a 42" chest. However, I was willing to look past that because the only time I planned on wearing the holster was for long drives in the car, not so much for everyday concealment. Sadly, my issues did not end there. The shoulder straps are very nice quality and very well made. However, they are only 1" wide and after wearing the holster for only 20 minutes around the house, my shoulders began to get uncomfortable. Not good for long drives in the car. The last issue, and perhaps the biggest of all, was the spare magazine pouch. This product is advertised both here on Amazon and on Galco's Website to fit the S&W M&P 9/40, FULLSIZE. So, it would stand to reason that the magazine pouch for a $150 holster would fit the spare magazines for the pistol it is designed for. Nope. The retaining straps are about half an inch too short. I tried everything. I seated the magazine as far into the pouch as is possible; it was touching the base. I tried stretching the retaining strap but half an inch is a long way to go. No matter how hard I tired, I could not get the strap to secure. So, I can carry the pistol, but no spare magazines, which also causes the holster to ride awkwardly because the weight is not balanced. Maybe I got a bad one or something. The little code Galco prints on the holster matched the one on their website for the full size magazines. Now remember, I have the compact version of the pistol as well with the shorter magazines. THOSE magazines fit in the pouch just fine, with plenty of room to spare, so if you want to carry the 9c or the 40c, this holster just might work for you if you can get past the uncomfortable shoulder straps. All in all, I was not satisfied with having to make compromises, so I returned the holster and I will have to look elsewhere. It's a shame really, because the holster looked really nice and was very high quality, just not in the design and execution department, only the assembly. Seriously Galco, make sure the product actually fits what you claim it does and for the love of it all, make the straps wider; everyone else does.

My Favorite Holster
By blu-ray sean
Extremely well crafted, the fit, finish, and quality of this American made classic cannot be beaten. If you are buying a shoulder rig, do not even consider any other. Completely adjustable, comfortable to wear all day long. Which is it's greatest attribute-quality, fit, design, or how well it draws? All of the above!

Right fit and form

Constructed of quality leather, sturdy, very adjustable for just the right fit and form. The optional belt loops stabilize the whole rig nicely. Excellent product.
