I was going to get one for my XDM 9mm and my XDMSC 9mm, I was wanting to buy only one, and use it for both of them. Which one should I say I want it fitted for? Thanks

[bigfatdave]

write crossbreed and ask - they've always answered my questions rapidly

[Walking Dead]

I was gonna buy one of those too. After a little searching I found these instead. Better price and great quality too.

I agree with calling or emailing them. They are small and very helpful.

Get a comp-tac and buy a kydex shell for both

If you do end up getting the Supertuck, you won't be disappointed. My service XD9 disappears easily.

get the Comp-Tac with the slide option - it accomodates various slide lengths

[baelkhntr]

I got one for my Sig p229r Equinox and really am pleased with the way it feels and works. It is able to be worn all day with a slightly heavey gun and still be comfortable at the end of the day. It conceals very well and still is in a good position for getting a good grip during presentarion. The spacing between the belt clips helps distribute the weight and it rides low to reduce the amount exposed above the belt line. I have started using it more than my owb because of its comfort.

get the Comp-Tac with the slide option - it accomodates various slide lengths so does anything with an open bottom

[JEB]

i would just order it for the XDM. i got one for my glock 22 years ago and my G27 fits perfectly. there is about .75-1" of leather extending past the muzzle when i carry the 27 but you will never notice it.

[duns]

I can't answer the OP's question but, as a comment, I was disappointed by my Crossbreed Supertuck. It's beautifully made, that's true, but my Walther P99C patterns badly no matter which way I try to position the holster. Recently, I was out shooting with the Walther in a Don Hume outside-the-waistband (OWB) leather holster and at lunchtime I threw on a loose untucked shirt and to my astonishment, there was much less patterning than with the Supertuck inside-the-waistband (IWB) holster. This was completely contrary to my intuition. For some reason, the OWB holster seemed to hold the pistol closer to my body than the IWB. Maybe I had not tried enough positions with the Supertuck? Anyway, I've never been comfortable with the idea of wearing the Supertuck with a tucked shirt since the visible clips give away that you are carrying. So if it's an untucked shirt, an OWB may not necessarily be worse than an IWB; might even be better for concealment and almost certainly easier to draw. I'm sure body shape has a lot to do with it too so YMMV.

im 150 6'5 and use mine to conceal a 5" 1911 all day every day

Are you sure you want to have big slab of leather against side of your body all day?:scrutiny:

[TanklessPro]

Love my super tuck. Mine works with my xd9sc, xd40 service, xd45 service, xd45gap tactical, and xd45 tactical. Besides a little size and weight difference they all carry the same. I have tried several different holster, the super tuck works the best by far.

[dragon813gt]

Would you rather have a hard piece of plastic? I have neither. But everyone I know that has the super tuck loves them and wears them all day. Most of them in very physical jobs where they're outside and sweating all day. Everyone is different but I don't see any drawbacks to the crossbreed.

Speak for yourself, I didn't really like mine. Too big and bulky, difficult to get on. I went back to my kydex rig.

Speaking to the OP, I would assume you would want to get the holster for the longer barrel, if there is a difference. The shorter can still lock into the longer holster, I'm pretty sure, but unless it's an open end on the front (and I can't remember if this is) then the longer one will not fit in the shorter holster.

[swift535]

Sorry to hear the Crossbreed didn't work out for you Skribs. It seems you're in the minority, though. Guess no product can fit or satisfy 100% of its consumers.

I'm not sure what you're used to carrying and don't have experience with a lot of different holsters myself. The supertucks are wider than something like a paddle holster but it's not without purpose. Taking it on/off has never been an issue for me but I only do that twice a day. If for some reason you're changing your holster multiple times a day then I could see convenience being a bigger factor.

Anyways, I'm sure there are other great holsters on the market too, but I still believe the OP would be happy with a supertuck. There are plenty of others who agree, so I don't necessarily have to "speak for myself" :)

[bigfatdave]

I do

it is comfortable enough for 12-hour drives and working outdoors in all weather, you should try it, it isn't that bad under there

[mljdeckard]

I wear mine with a full-size all-steel 1911, including in 100+ degree summers. It's wider to spread the weight and bulk of the gun over a bigger area.

[Cee Zee]

CrossBreed holsters require a lot of break in before they fit right. I think maybe some people didn't do that with their holster. They expected it to work perfect the first day and they just aren't made that way. It's like getting a brand new baseball glove. You have to work it hard to get it broke in but when you do it's custom built just for you. I started out wearing mine around the house for 15 minutes at a time and gradually built up the length of time I wore it. It took a good month to get it where I wanted it. Now it fits and feels fantastic.

Also if your gun doesn't fit the way you want it to, I'd definitely contact the people at CrossBreed. They are great to deal with. You could just reform the Kydex yourself with a hair dryer. It isn't that hard to do. I had one that was formed for one gun and I changed it to work with a different gun. As long as you don't overheat the Kydex you should be fine. You'll see it start to raise up if you're getting it too hot. I didn't have a problem working with mine though. You have to get it really hot for it to be too hot.

[jp3]

I tried on the Galco King Tuck (similar to Crossbreed). Felt like I was wearing half a cow, there was so much leather. To each his own I guess.

[swift535]

@Cee Zee - yeah, mine originally shipped with plastic clips (this was several years ago). My gun belt is pretty thick and the plastic clips seem ready to break. When I expressed concern to Crossbreed, they emailed me out some metal clips right away at no cost.

At some point they switched and have shipped with metal clips for some time now.

I haven't tried the Crossbred SuperTuck, but I recently got a Theis holster of largely the same design for my Makarov.

I can honestly say I don't see how I could ever go back to any other holster design out there. With more standard single-clip designs that gun was digging into my side annoyingly all day. With this design I could literally forget it is even there.

My only guess is that its just the difference of the pressure being distributed over a larger area with these holsters, but its the only type of IWB I'll ever wear again. I was actually trying to narrow down my carry gun based on previous discomfort and was looking at the single stack 9mm's, but I swear after trying one of these I'm debating on trying to carry a full sized Ruger SR9.

Only thing I really don't like about the Crossbreed's (and one of the reasons I avoided getting one) is the logo's on the clips. If you actually do tuck in your shirt those logos are a glaring flag yelling "GUN! GUN! GUN!" for anyone familiar with them.

[Cee Zee]

I would think that anyone familiar enough with the CrossBreed logo would be a gun nut like the rest of us. At least a large percentage of them would anyway. I could be wrong. But I always wear a shirt out when I have my SuperTuck on. It's much slower to get to the gun with a tucked in shirt and the clips on the belt are a dead giveaway too and likely to more people than just those that recognize the CrossBreed logo.

[theautobahn]

Has anybody tried one of these?

http://theisholsters.com/

I'm seriously considering one of the horsehide ones for my Glock.

[LNK]

I have three, one for 1911, M&P9FS, and 4"gp100. The one for the GP100 is harder to tuck due to the cylinder, but all three conceal well and are comfortable. Horsehide is the way to go if you sweat a lot like I do.

As far as being visible, I live in MA and routinely encounter law enforcement in my travels. If any of them have noticed I am carrying, they were cool enough to ignore. I am in MA, so I suspect they did not notice...

P.S. No affiliation with Theis holsters, just a happy customer...

I'm in Maine, but would have to agree with you in regard to MA LEO's - I'm guessing they did not notice. ;)

Yeah, old Barney Fife would get a little nervous if he suspected.....

That's the one I just got for my Makarov (I also got the horsehide version). He makes them to order so it's about a 2 week wait after ordering, but I can attest that the quality is excellent. All my IWB holsters have been fairly cheap things so far (mostly Barsony and Galco), but this is by FAR the most comfortable one I've ever worn. It's just as comfortable as any OWB I've tried.

[swift535]

I saw this posted on Reddit, might be worth checking out. I have no experience with them but the design is similar and supposedly if you don't like it within a month, you get your money back and can keep the holster. The "DIY assembly" kit is only $40. At that price I'll probably test their sales pitch next time I need a holster.

[Cee Zee]

I guess some people forgot to mention they weren't talking about CrossBreed holsters too. Forget the disclaimer. Post the actual product you're talking about since it's a hijack of the OP's thread.

[One_Jackal]

I have struggled to find a holster for my P95. A friend has a bunch of holsters for a gun of similar size. I ended up buying a Blackhawk sportster ambidextrous model with a mag pouch. The biggest problem with concealing the P95 is the hammer pinches anything it touches. The Sportster has an adjustable retention strap that covers the hammer.

I carry the P95 all the time now.

[Dlowe167]

I have a super tuck delexe for my CZ P-06. It destributes the weight of the gun evenly acoss my side. Once the leather wears in,u dont really notice it much. And the P-06 is like 4 lbs. Fully loaded. I am going to try a high noon shoulder rig though. Crossbreed does do the try it for 2 weeks free guarenteen.

[TAKtical]

Crossbreed uses way too much leather. It would be my guess that the crossbreed wasnt concealing well enough because you didnt get the combat cut. I could be wrong but thats my guess. Most people find my hybrid holsters to be more comfortable than the crossbreed because I dont make mine so wide. The width is usually what makes it uncomfortable for some. There must have been something truly weird going on if an OWB conceals better than an IWB.

[trigga]

try white hat holsters, the kydex is interchangable.

[Rusty Luck]

I went with a Kholster because it comes with a full leather piece that I can cut to my own customization.
