Raven VanGuard 2 Advanced Kit M&P Shield 9mm/.40cal

Description

The VanGuard 2 Advanced Kit from Raven Concealment Systems is a minimalist inside-waistband (IWB) holster system designed specifically for the S&W M&P Shield. The system covers only the trigger guard, reducing bulk compared with conventional holsters while still providing a retained, repeatable carry solution. This Advanced Kit adds the RCS Claw to pull the grip closer to the body for improved concealment and includes tuckable overhook struts for a secure belt interface. The kit is ambidextrous and adjustable for ride height and cant to suit varied carry preferences.
