Hi,
I’m about to order a Comp-Tac Minotaur MTAC IWB holster, but I’m having trouble with a decision. I have a S&W M&P .40 which I am going to use it with. This is my only handgun (for now). I am a fairly big guy (6’0” 220 lbs) so I don’t think I will have too much trouble concealing a full size.
My dilemma is rather or not to get the full coverage kydex holster which covers the entire muzzle, or the “slide” version which exposes the muzzle and the end of the slide.
Does the full coverage version truly protect the barrel and end of the slide from abrasion/debris from clothing, or is it still open in some way that’s not clear from the pictures? If I don’t have another gun to use with the holster (even if there’s a chance I get a compact someday), do I give up a lot of important protection by going with the “slide” version with the exposed muzzle?
Also, for anyone familiar with the MTAC, are the black standard clips good to go with if I usually wear a black leather belt?
Thanks for the help.
