    As the thread says, what IWB holster are you using? I'm mostly curious about what holster you might be using for an average sized pistol, not a pocket sized pistol. Specifically I'm looking to get something for a Commander length 1911.

    Any advice?

    I have a super tuck for my xdm. It's very comfortable but I don't have a good gun belt and the weight wears after awhile. It's definitely built for a larger frame gun. It conceals well also with lots of adjustment.

    I plan on picking up a Super Tuck for my PK380 I just ordered! I hear nothing but good things from friends that use them! I might have to get one for my XDM as well!

    Brad, those look like a nice holster, I like the interchangeable bodies. I like the MATC but they don't make one for the PK380 though....bummer!

    I wear a super tuck for my XDM but my favorite holster is the one I have for my Ruger SR9c and that is a Nate Squared Tactical Professional. http://n82tactical.com/n82store/

    I'm hopping to pick up an N82 for my XDM soon.

    The cant is really easy! Basically its just a screw that you loosen to adjust and then tighten back up. I had a problem with mine and they sent me a return package and I had it back in a few days.

    No problem! I'm sure you will love it. I haven't heard of anyone that hasn't.

    Another vote for this one, have the exact same one and really like it. Pretty well made and really haven't had problems with it. Granted I can't wear it out in public, but I wear it enough to be confident with it and not notice it most of time.

    Thanks for all the input guys. Thought I'd put up an update for anyone else looking for one of these for themselves.

    I picked up a Milt Sparks Summer Special II for my 1911, and a Galco V-Hawk for the new Glock 19 that I'm still waiting to get transferred. Haven't gotten to wear the V-Hawk yet since I haven't gotten the gun transferred, but have spent two full days with the Summer Special on and it's super comfortable. I was surprised, it's actually just as comfortable as wearing my P238 which is much smaller, it's just not quite as concealable and prints a bit more unless I'm wearing a hoodie or flannel over the top.
