Very very lite shaping, so that the holster stay put when you draw out of it. Takes a little practice to i might add, but after a bit, iwas drawing out of it like a champ.

That's really sharp looking, John. I've never tried adding the tooling like you do, it's got to be time consuming. I like the look especially on the straps - I actually don't mind it on the holster body, but I imaging you have to be careful not to mung it up when you wet mold it. I've never tried a shoulder rig - looks like you've got the design figured out.
One comment - I usually like to have the entire trigger/trigger guard area covered to reduce the risk of something grabbing the trigger and causing a AD. Other than that minor nit - nice job! Lane

 , or M&P then all you have is your trigger finger. I would agree on the slightly higher guard for the trigger being a worthy alteration.

Great point Lane,
and that is the reason why i post these things up. I can only do so much brainstorming by myself, i need more brains, and that is were you guys come into play. Lane- You are correct the tooling is for sure very time consuming, but i like the over all look of it. As for wet forming over the tooling, you lose a bit of detail , and you have to let partial dry before for boneing, and even then i only use my finger tips, no other object to press in the detail, or you will actually smash and distort the tooling.

John, looks very nice. My only comment would be concerning the trigger guard. Never liked the exposed version. Too big of a chance that your finger falls on the trigger when drawing.
Other than that - nice disign. Congrats
