I wanted to share a frustrating experience I just had with Incognito Concealment and get some recommendations for a replacement.
I got an M9 as an early military retirement gift to myself. There’s a certain type of holster I’ve gotten for other pistols that I really like, called the MIC (minimal inside carry). MIC doesn’t make one for the M9, so I searched for something similar from another manufacturer, and found Incognito Concealment. I ordered one, which turned out to be a huge mistake.
The Issue:
I ordered a holster for a standard M9. Incognito sent a holster for an uncommon Beretta variant, so it doesn’t properly fit over the trigger guard. Additionally, even if it did fit, the holster has such a wide opening in front that it would allow foreign objects to work their way between the holster and the pistol (defeating the purpose of a holster in the first place).
The Comparison (See Photos):
• Photo 1: My M9 next to the Incognito holster. You can see the geometry mismatch, especially in the shape of the trigger guard and the lower contours of the frame.
• Photo 2: My M&P Shield in a MIC holster. This is how the concept is supposed to work: a snapped, contoured fit with zero gap.
The "Customer Service":
When I reached out to the owner, Joe, to explain the problem, he told me the holster was fit checked on an M9, that the gap was "intentional,” and that I could send it back for him to remold it at an additional expense. I declined to pay him any more money, and after several back and forth emails requesting a refund, his final response was literally just a smile emoji: 😊
I’ll be initiating a chargeback with my CC company since the product is fundamentally incompatible with the model ordered, but I’m still without a holster.
Does anyone know a reputable maker who actually molds these minimalist "taco" style trigger guard holsters (with the lanyard) specifically for the squared M9/92FS frame? I love the MIC holster for my Shield, but they don’t seem to offer one for the Beretta. I’m looking for something that actually "clicks" into place and protects the trigger properly.
Appreciate any leads!
