Anyone have and use one?

Opinions?

Photos of it in use? (Other than from Kevin's website)

I recently received mine, you really have to break it in or it will not release. I am waiting for my CHL to process so I cant speak with that much experience in long term wear. I have worn it around the house and it is comfortable and is great quality; also conceals my 239 very well. I'll try to get some pics uploaded this weekend if you want.

I'd appreciate seeing some photos.

How long did it take to get yours?

I ordered it from topgunsupply.com and they had it instock, received the holster in 3 days. I had contacted kevin at K&D about the turn-around time and he said it was around 6 weeks I believe. My CHL was approved the other day so i'll post how I like the k&d compared to the Galco summer comfort after trying both around town.

Here are some pics..

Thanks for the photos, Sig, and congrats on getting your CHL.

I ordered one for my S&W M&P from Kevin 12+ weeks ago -- still waiting.

I ordered the Dakota Defender for my HK P2000 and USP Compact and it took about 16 weeks. Long wait but a fine holster.

I have a Dakota defender for my 1911 and carry it every day. the only complaint that I have is that the suede backing is partly glued and partly sewn on. This holster has been in use for less than 90 days and the glued on portion at the top (near the hammer and beavertail) has begun to seperate from the holster. This was corrected with Gorilla Glue (21st century duct tape). I am however very pleased with the fit to my pistol and the retention.
