    At the moment...

    Raven Concealment Vanguard 2 IWB
    Raven Concealment Phantom OWB

    Always worn Strongside. Between 3-5 O'Clock depending on clothing and holster being used.

    Very comfortable and don't see myself changing anything.

    I use either a Blue Ridge Holsters Urban EDC Hybrid or White Hat Holsters OWB Slideslide worn at 3-5 o'clock depending on the pants I'm wearing and how the belt loops are situated. Both of these holsters are leather/kydex hybrid, and are extremely comfortable holsters. White Hat holsters are made here in Texas!

    i bought 6 holsters trying to find one that fit and was comfortable. Finally found one.....firearmholster.com
    wear mine with first clip even with jean pant seam. good spot that works for me.

    bottom line, youll prob go through several. nature of cc. Its worth trying the fh.com though, it has 3 layers,.,...leather, rubber,flannel backing. Keeps sweat from gun and requires ZERO breakin. I bought a alien that was so hard, it took weeks for it to shape right for me. IMO, a cheap stamped out piece of leather is terrible compared to Firearmholster,.....so much more cimfortable.

    I have one for a sr40c and xdm 3.8

    Thanks HH.

    Ordered June 27 (quoted six week turnaround)
    Shipment confirmed July 17
    Received July 21

    This review is not meant to compare/criticize Foxx holsters, but they are the only IWB I have used.

    Heavily worn 2-year old Foxx

    Definitely slimmer than the Foxx but much thicker kydex. Leather backing seems more durable, but the neoprene has "sweatguard" to prevent it from falling apart.

    Adjustable retention, couldn't ever do this with the Foxx

    Previously was carrying a Glock 19 at 1-2 in a Galco Tuk n Go.

    I recently upgraded to a Hopp Custom Leather single clip IWB holster. It's amazing. Same 1-2 o clock position.

    AIWB at 1 o'clock in a Dale Fricke Jonathan for warmer weather where my only cover garment is a t-shirt. If I'm wearing a looser fitting button-down shirt un-tucked, I'll switch to the DF Archangel II. DF Archangel vertical single mag pouch at 11 o'clock.

    Either one of these, chosen at random:

    For the CZ75b:

    Milt Sparks Versa Max II. This is, functionally, the best and strongest holster I own.

    For the 1911:

    Comm II by HBEleatherworks. This is, without a doubt, the most comfortable holster in the universe. Eric's ability to finish leather is second to none. The black cherry finish on this holster blew me away when I first got it, and only looks better as the holster gets older.

    Both are worn at about 3'0clock.

    My main critique: lose the reinforced mouth for "reholstering", Milt Sparks. Let's be honest here. It's a worthless feature that needlessly adds thickness and bulk to the holster.
