The Bulldog RRSWMPS Rapid Release Holster delivers secure retention with instant access for Smith & Wesson M&P Shield pistols. This outside-the-waistband holster combines polymer construction with paddle attachment for reliable everyday carry performance.
What Makes This Different
The rapid release mechanism sets this holster apart from standard retention systems by allowing single-motion draws while maintaining positive weapon security. Unlike basic friction holsters, the RRSWMPS features an active retention system that prevents accidental weapon loss during physical activity. The paddle design eliminates belt threading requirements while providing stable positioning against the body.
