NEW HOLSTER for XD9sc! - PICS!!

[cupsz71]

It's been a long and at times a very impatient wait deciding on just what holster to get for my XD9sc. I've looked/surf'd what feels like TONS of different variations/brands that would suit what I'm looking for in a good OWB holster for concealment.
A friend of mine that works at the local FFL dealer I use, urged me to wait until the next shipment of leather holsters arrived from a local holster maker that they highly recomended and sell alot of.

I'm very impressed. I chose the Model #31 Speed Scabbard III, that was custom made for my XD. The fit/finish is fantastic! No "force feeding" the gun into the holster to ensure a proper fit, and the adjustable retention is good. Plus it rides high on my waist and hardly prints at all.

Needless to say - me be happy :D

Now I just got to finish paying off the CT Laser Grips I've got on layaway........

Oh here's some PICS - ENJOY:

And yes my belt sucks...(and gut), buy hey it's just for "informational purposes only!" ....currently working on both.....

I've found the comfort level is actually really good. :D

Riding that high on the hip w/the higher frame back strap against the body and the built in FBI cant, I hardly feel it - in my everyday stroll, or even when driving (no seat belt issue & I'm a right handed shooter)

It actually doesn't feel any different (weight/size wise.....) than when I carried my GERBER & SUREFIRE light stacked against each other on the ye'old belt. - still trying to find placement for them....

I have two holsters that look almost identical to yours. I really like them both. I had owned the open top like yours for a couple of years, and wore it often, when I decided to get one with a thumb break on top. Now, I wear the thumb break model whenever I think the rig might be exposed sometime during the day. Perhaps it's just in my head, but I think the thumb break is a little less scary looking, especially since I carry a 1911 cocked and locked. To the uninitiated, that naked hammer pulled back and fully exposed can be unsettling. Of course, you don't have that issue to consider with your gun.
