Smith & Wesson Shield with BLACKHAWK! ARC IWB Holster

Smith and Wesson Shield with Blackhawk ARC

A look at the Smith & Wesson Shield in the BLACKHAWK! A.R.C. IWB holster. I’ve been using the A.R.C. (Appendix Reversible Carry) holster a lot over the last few months and it has proven to be a great addition to my S&W Shield carry options. It is especially useful during those days when I know I’ll be taking my holster on and off several times throughout the day, which is common for me.

Stay tuned for more on the BLACKHAWK! A.R.C. holster.
