The Safariland 7378 7TS ALS Concealment Holster delivers secure retention and rapid deployment for the Smith & Wesson M&P Shield EZ series. This open-top design combines Safariland's proven ALS (Automatic Locking System) technology with a low-profile construction optimized for concealed carry applications.
What Makes This Different
The ALS retention system automatically secures the firearm upon holstering while allowing a straight-up draw when the ALS lever is engaged with the thumb. Unlike traditional thumb-break holsters, this system requires no additional steps to disengage during the draw stroke. The 7TS finish provides enhanced durability with a non-reflective surface that resists scratches and wear from daily carry.
