I looked around but couldn't find a thread like this. I'm always curious to see what and how others are carrying. So for those of you who don't mind divulging that information, please join in.

I have an XD45 compact I carry in either a Comptac-C.T.A.C. or a Crossbreed IWB holster. I like the Crossbreed more. I also carry a Charterarms undercover snubby .38 everynow and then. I only have a unclemike's IWB for that. Overall I like my setup. The next thing I want to purchase for carrying is a proper gunbelt. I'm thinking about this one:

Anyone have this one?

Well, Thanks to those of you who join in.

Welcome, Nate. Looks like great minds think alike! I also carry an XD45 Compact but I use a DeSantis ProStealth IWB holster. And, like you, I LOVE it!!!

 

[iampacking]

Usually a G30 OWB in a Fobus paddle--the 1911 beavertail was killing my love handles. If I need to be really compact, NAA .32 Guardian in a pocket.

 

[Hunter]

I carry a G19 with a Surefire X200 Weapon Mounted Light in a Bladetech IWB Holster, extra Mag in a Mag Pouch, Cell Phone, knife, OC, and a Surefire E2 Light.

 

[Jeff Johnson]

My favorite one to carry is my full-size SW99 (.40 S&W) in a DeSantis Cozy Partner IWB holster.

When I feel the need for deeper concealment, I carry my G27 (.40 S&W) also in the Cozy Partner or even in a Smart Carry holster.

Hoooah Glock 21 C with a fobus holster to a safariLand Holster with OC MK 4 ASP With two Hi-Cap Mags Two Handcuffs and a X -26 Taser Love it all

I just have a little Bersa Thunder .380 with extended (10 round) magazine and frangible JHP rounds. I carry IWB.

IMHO it's underpowered, but it has the advantage that I can conceal it effectively with a loose T-shirt, golf shirt, etc. As long as I don't have to tuck in my shirt, it's with me and hidden. People have known me for the almost decade that I've been carrying and have no clue. Even the few people who know I carry concealed can't tell.

Now, I drool over my wife's Kimber compact .45, and it's almost as concealable....

I carry an H&K USPc compact .45 in a CTAC holster in the 15 deg. cant. I love it. It is very comfortable as far as concealing goes. I work in an office and am required to wear slacks and dress shirts. I wear button up Hawaiian style shirts untucked and conceal without a trace.

I carry a .22 caliber Beretta, Model 21A, in an Uncle Mike ankle holster. It is very comfortable. No one has been able to tell I have it on me.

XD9 sub compact, fobus paddle holster (very comfortable), and a cheep little (can’t remember the brand) neoprene/cloth holster that clips onto my belt and holds it on the inside of my belt/pants. But need to find something better, I'm a big t-shirt fan and allot of times when I carry with the paddle holster the end of the gun will end up peeking out, and depending on the pants I wear the inside the belt one can get uncomfortable. But I’m happy to carry when ever I can!

 

[Mr. Magnum]

Currently carry a Springfield Micro .45 in a nylon holster. SOB is my preferred carry method.

 

[Contagious]

Just picked up a Springfield XD .40 sub-compact. Love that gun. I'm still trying to find the right concealed holster. Anybody out there with some recommendations? I prefer inside the belt style.

If you want a leather holster, I like Galco holsters they have a variety of different kinds. If you get a leather holster for IWB, you may want to consider one that has some type of reinforcement around the top so it won't collapse and be harder to reholster while wearing it.

If you want Kydex, try Bladetech. They are more expensive, but well built. I like the belt loop attachment instead of the belt clip attachment. I have a Bladetech IWB for my G19 with a Surefire X200, and I love it.

 

[GeneticsDave]

I'm glad you enjoy your XD.

 

[Contagious]

Thanks - I'll take a look at all of them!

 

[natehunts]

Here are a few more to look at. I have a crossbreed IWB and CTAC and like them both. I'm looking at either the kytac or the kdholster defender next.

shoulder holster
pancake holster
fanny pack
smart type carry
briefcase carry
open carry

 

[NRA's 007]

I carry a .22 Beretta on an ankle holster. No one has ever noticed when I've carried. I am all about deep concealment.

 

[smo]

I carry an XD9SC in a traditional black leather holster on my strong side. I usally don't tuck in my shirt unless I have a jacket or other cover garment of some sort.

If I am going formal or on a date with my wife, I will wear the same gun in an IWB tuckable holster and tuck my shirt in that way. It's not as comfortable to me, but it's not bad either.

I love the XD series.

Although I've heard several hardcore carriers say things such as, "Friends never let friends carry 9mm," my favorite gun is still my Kahr PM9. I found that due to the inconvenience (I know, a LAME excuse) I wasn't carrying as often as I should have, so I purchased this little gun and I love it. I have only owned 1 other gun (Smith and Wesson SW9VE) and I MUCH prefer my Kahr. Even though it is TINY, it is very easy for me to shoot and I have a very high level of confidence that when I pull the trigger, it is going to shoot.
It is so little, I just carry it in my pants pocket most of the time and don't even realize I have it.
