Unnecessary administrative handling of the pistol I carry every day is one of my biggest worries. Any method of stowing my pistol that involves unholstering is a non-starter for me. Another worry is protecting the trigger from negligent access. Any method of stowing my pistol in my vehicle that allows me easy access to the trigger during stowing or while retrieving the pistol is also a non-starter for me. Using a magnet as a "holster" both requires unnecessary administrative handling and leaves the trigger exposed.

My S&W M&P M2.0, which I usually carry openly, lives in its Safariland 7TS ALS holster. It only comes out for cleaning, practice, training, or defense. Safariland's Quick Locking System (QLS) makes this easy. I carry it on my waist in my Grand Caravan, but SWMBO says I cannot scratch her Altima's leather seats. When driving her car, I remove the holstered pistol from my belt and stow it in a manner that provides sufficient security, ease of access, and concealment for me.

Your mileage will vary.
