OWB similar to Crossbreed?

**cakeshooter** · April 28th, 2012, 08:09 PM

So I've been watching the Crossbreed Seconds site for an OWB slide holster for LCP/CT and/or LC9. I've been sort of patient about it but now I realize I'm having a pistol class in two weeks where we will be drawing from holster.

I have two Crossbreed IWB holsters I got from the seconds site that I can use if I have to, but I just don't think I'm going to be wearing those every day...I am thinking an OWB one will be more comfy for 10 hours of work. I'd love to train with whatever holster I plan to wear to work, but I guess its not super necessary....?

Since the class is in two weeks, that means buying a new Crossbreed is probably out of the question since they have to make it custom.... I love their retention though. Anyone have another brand that I can get in two weeks with great retention and quality, similar to the slide models Crossbreed has? (Not the clip kind.) I also do not want the retention strap...I just want something the guns fit in nice and snug.

I wrote someone who makes good quality holsters but they said that LCP and LC9 were made for pocket carry and he does not believe they are good for holster carry. Whatever.

Looked on Ebay and saw a few nice looking leather ones but I am not sure if I should trust the retention...they were wet molded leather. I like how the Crossbreed uses that Kydex (?) stuff.

(**** Never mind, researching and going to get one on Ebay I think!****)

Raven Concealment, but a long wait time. There is a member here that makes nice Kydex but his name escapes me.

I looked at the Raven but didn't like how wide they were made....

Trying to contact Winthrop Holsters right now, but his email address didn't work so trying through Ebay. We'll see....

Does the fitted leather retain as well as the kydex?

I believe Orionz makes kydex holsters.
Now that you mention that I have been meaning to contact him about a mag holster.

Chemical and Unloved also make holsters. CHemical uses leather, and Unloved uses kydex.

Take a look at atomic dog holsters. He may be able to whip something up for you.

I don't own one but Concealment Solutions has an OWB model that may work for you.

Edit:
it looks like White Dog Holsters offers an all Kydex OWB model
