Tuckable holster? Springfield XD/Kel-Tec PF9
Chasaway

Posted on 03/12/2008 7:42:38 PM PDT by Chasaway

Okay, dudes and dudettes...

I need some help. I'm looking for an inside the waistband, tuckable holster for my Springfield XD SubCompact. I'd LIKE to buy the Tucker holster (pic below), but I don't want to wait 4 or 5 months.

I know I've seen some other, similar holsters that have a shorter delivery time, but can't remember 'em or where I saw 'em.

I'd rather have leather than the plastic-y stuff, so if you know of somewhere I can look and you've got some reviews of the holster, I would really, really, really appreciate your direction.

I live on the coast in S. Texas, so vests, coats, etc. aren't an option. I need something I can wear under a tucked-in polo or button down shirt...

I also would like to be able to slip my PF-9 into it whenever I want. I know it won't fit well, but it'll do for just walking around work.

You're a little slow on the draw, aren't you?

You must have answered before I finished posting this!

I like the Milt Sparks Versa Max-2 for my sig p239. Dunno about delivery times though.

I keep my Kel-Tec in my front pants pocket, all by itself. No one is ever the wiser, and it can be ready as a surprise any time.

Pleated pants help.

You could order the holster you want and pick up an “Uncle Mike’s” nylon holster to use during the wait time.

They may not be ideal but they are cheap (under $20), are available at most sporting goods shops, and in my experience, they mold themselves around your weapon to provide a nice fit.

The down side is you won’t have the option of wearing a tucked -in shirt

Go with a slight modification I learned from a friend years back. Modified “mexican” That is simply-no holster. As you are pulling up your pants, put the piece up under your shirt where you want to carry it (behind right hip if you are right handed), Hold it in place from the out side and finish pulling up the pants and buckle. I am usually not in a social situation anymore to have a tucked in shirt, but when I do , I do this. With a cocked and locked 1911, no less.

I just got the XD .40 (OD Green) and Love, love, love, love,Love, love love............. my gun. I bought Bagmaster holster for it and it's pretty comfortable in the small of my back with an extra magazine.

I bought mine at a local dealer's shop, but here's a website

http://www.gunaccessories.com/Bagmaster/StandardHolsters.asp . FYI, I also bought a Taurus PT140 PRo on the same day and I love it too, but the XD is too cool, mine came with a bag, cleaning kit, Springfield holster, magazine clip and a springfield armory buck knife all in OD green.

The BEST of the BEST is without a doubt the CROSSBREED which is the first IWB that truly allows me to pack a full sized Sig P226 with total concealment and in utter comfort under a tucked in shirt and no other cover garment in the muggy sultry heat of Miami, FL. The best part is a 14 trial period wherein you can return for a full refund anytime. I wouldn't have any other IWB now that I have this. Check them out. I'm image challenged when it comes to posting pix here so maybe some of you folks can post some of the pix from the CrossBreed webpage?

I have a general rule of never pointing my gun at anything I don’t want to shoot and I’d have to say that this underwear breaks that rule in the worst way.

I like the blade tech concealex holsters. Ive got one for my walther p99. It’s reasonably priced and you probably wont have to wait on one.

I also like the milt sparks rig mentioned, but unless you luck into some dealer who has one on the shelf the waiting list is six months.
