As for holsters, I strongly prefer Brommeland for an IWB; they are thin, stiff enough to hold shape very well & have more forward cant than the VMII, which I like. They are comparable in price to the Sparks, so not cheap, but they won't break the bank either.

I also use shoulder holsters quite a bit, especially when in the car a lot & for the money & usefulness, the Galco Miami Classic or the Jackass works very well at a reasonable cost. I always have to adjust the retention of the snap though to get to a good point of keeping the gun in, but being easy enough to break it open with reasonable thumb effort with one hand only, they are always too tight as received.
