Still....that's close enough for me. Hope I don't run into another one of these horror stories about it being lost. Patience is not one if my strong suits. This mailed status wait is harder that the BC. Haha

Congratulations Tx_XDm!!!! That's terrific! :cheers2:
What holster did you end up with? I'm still getting used to my new MTAC for my XDm. Haven't quite found the sweet spot of where it's comfortable and my gun doesn't print.

Since I am just carrying the Xdm temporarily. I bought one of the wcholster IWB Hybrid Holster Springfield XDM 9/40 4.5" Barrel. It is actually a decent holster and it seems to be very comfortable.
