I'm liking the pro stealth...a little iffy on it being ambedexterous, I like to carry at 9 O' Clock with the butt end of the gun facing towards my back not strong side. Any input be great.

I have a Pro-Stealth for my M&P 9mm and like it a lot. The belt clip is quite strong and keeps it in place. Also like the attached carrier for an extra mag.

I would suggest saving your money for a real holster. A nylon holster will not provide the comfort required to carry for long periods. And I DON'T trust metal clips! I've had them come off my belt too many times.

Most everyone tries cheap holsters to some degree before learning better. I did. Everyone has a drawer or box full of holsters that they no longer wear. This could be the start of your collection.

I prefer Tucker. The most popular brand here seems to be Crossbreed, which are reasonably priced. Check out the Supertuck deluxe for $30 more than the nylon.

I can vouch for that.

Yeah I've started my collection. I ran a don Hume mso for a PT140, but I sold the PT140 and bought the PX4 SC. I noticed the other day that the Don Hume MSO holster was rubbing on one side of the gun causing holster wear...I know I'm being nit-picky but I haven't had the gun all that long that it should start showing this sort of wear. Thanks for the info, I'm going to look into a crossbreed...also possibly an infidel if they make one for my sc

True dat... ...but that said, I do own a leather holster from Desantis — a Speed Scabbard — and it is a well made leather holster at a very reasonable price.

That is pretty nice for the money.
Just goes to show that this forum truly is a "wealth of information"...I think Joe817 coined that phrase.

Had it not been for TexasCHLforum, I'd still be sportin an Uncle Mikes.

Yup. So glad I stumbled onto this site when I was looking for CHL info.

Anyways,

I ended up ordering a crossbreed supertuck deluxe. After seeing this holster be recommended numerous times on this board I went for it. Can't hurt if I don't like it within two weeks I can always send it back.

I think you'll find it a keeper. Did you order the combat cut? It may be better to not get the combat cut and trim it yourself, if needed (after you decide to keep it).

The Combat Grip is where we trim away some of the leather from the holster
backer. This allows a firmer grasp on the gun during the draw stroke. This modification does sacrifice a little bit of comfort but does increase the draw speed. This is an extra cost option because this cut is made to follow the contour of the slide/grip of the individual firearm and varies from one gun to another.
Approximatley 20% of our customers like this option, the others either have no preference or feel it sacrificess too much comfort.
If you are unsure, don't order it, we can do it later if you would like, but once it's done, it's done.

Ive got some good size love handles and it conseals amazingly well with cargo shorts and a normal fitting(not too tight/not too baggy) plain ol white t-shirt.
I was quite suprised. I carry an xD subcompact 3"
