My one ond only issue with my XD

I own an XD .40 subcompact and feel it is by far the very best gun for the money. My one and only one problem is not being able to find a conceal holster. I bought an Uncle Mike's Size 4 inside the pocket holster which the live help on Cheaper Than Dirt salesman and the Uncle Mike's sales rep told me would work with an XD. The trigger guard on The XD seems to be larger than any other subcompact. Has any other XD subcompact owner experienced this? If so, were you able to find an IWB holster or inside pocket holster that fits this gun?

The trigger guard on the XD is built a bit larger and square type like the trigger guard on a Taurus, so if you can find one fitted for a Taurus it will probably work with your XD.

Chances are real good that the Crossbreed holster will have the proper mold for the XD, but if they don't, just tell them to make it for a Taurus PT140, I know they have that one as i bought one from them. That holster carries my PT140, my Taurus 24/7 OSS and my Springfield XD 45. All have the same basic trigger guard design.

Thanks, I think the XD Subcompact would be pretty close to the Millennium subcompact. I'm going to check out specs.

The only difference really is in the length of the barrels, other wise the sub XD and the service XD and the Tactical XD will all fit into the Crossbreed that is formed for the PT140 Taurus as the trigger guards are very close to each other and that is where the problem is, is in fitting the trigger guard. The 5" XD fits right in, just the barrel goes on through the holster.

I got an ACE Case IWB holster designed for subcompact Glock and it fits perfect. Under $10.00 too.
