I emailed them last week (about the 5 1/2 week mark) and got a quick response back. He said they were shipping orders from 1/12 and were running about 6 1/2 weeks on shipping with another 3 or 4 days to arrive once it is shipped.
I figure I will get mine in another week or two.
Wow. Well this is depressing.

Yeah I meant to. I just procrastinated and was torn between supertuck and the comp tac minotaur. When I finally decided on which one I was gonna get, my background was already under review.
What made you decide against CompTac? I absolutley love my MTAC, it's more adjustable than the supertuck(retention, cant and ride height). Not to mention you would have probably received it way before February ended as their production time is only 5 days and they are located around the Houston area, which means fast shipping for us Texans!
Price mainly. As a college student that 30 extra dollars is a big deal. Especially after all the dough that was dropped on the app and class. I did my research and figured they're both excellent holsters and if I could save 30 dollars I would. But I'm making due with what I have. I'm really just glad I have my license really. It's a relief.
I hear you on the price thing. You have to balance what's out there with what you can spring for. Comp Tac does make one called the Minotaur Spartan that's about the same price as a Cross Breed Super Tuck. I figure they're both good holsters. Hopefully you'll end up with your Cross Breed soon.

I hear you on that one. I was under the assumption that they were around the same price. You're right I've heard that crossbreed's are some of the most comfortable IWB holsters you can get! I feel bad for everybody that says "you have to try out so many holsters before you find the right one", well if you choose crossbreed or comptac for your first one you won't have to worry about that!
I know this is a Crossbreed thread (and I don't want to hijack it) but I ordered a Kydex belt and an IWB mag pouch from Comp Tac on Friday. Got a note from them this morning telling my order was going into production within 24 hours and their current production times are "about 5 business days".
Just wanted to give some current manufacturing schedule data.

And that's exactly why I went Crossbreed. It was just a name that kept coming up. Everyone loves theirs. So why not start with the best? It just seems like a waste of money to buy all these different holsters.
Also, I emailed them today. They said they're still shipping orders from mid January. Looks like I'll be waiting a good while. Procrastination will be the death of me.

My first holster was a iwb crossbreedseconds order. Took about a week for the funds to get there and about a week to get the holster. It looked brand new and functions as it should.

Same here. I haven't seen anyone say they dislike their Crossbreed holster. Maybe that something else is just as good, but nothing negative. I'm hoping starting there will spare me the proverbial box o' holsters everyone says they have.
Well I'm not gonna buy another holster just cause the one I've already purchased is taking forever. Haha. That would make the whole choosing crossbreed over minotaur to save money redundant.

Mine took about 6 weeks, but it was well worth the wait. You will not be disappointed. Mark the late owner was a stand up guy and I stand by their product. Also check out the INCOG holster by G-Code. Another company that makes great gear.
