Yes, I have that combination and it does work. Not my first choice, but an effective and functional one that is relatively inexpensive.
I do use my Uncle Mike's size 15 Belt Slide holster in Mirage Nylon occasionally to carry my P95DC or my SR9. I use my High Noon SkinGuard OWB and High Noon Bare Asset IWB more, though. These are not custom either and not 'perfect', just another reasonably priced alternative that works well.

I'm sure you are probably already aware of this, but I will mention it as a reminder.
There are at least three legitimate reasons to consider as to why SOB may not be the preferred carry method:
1. it takes considerably longer to draw from concealment with an SOB holster - I have a nice SOB rig for my .380Auto, but I can't get my average draw/fire time from concealment down under 3 seconds using it. That's about a full second longer than my draw/fire from concealment on the hip - doesn't sound like much until you consider that it's 50% longer!
2. since it takes you longer to draw from SOB and it's a longer, more difficult reach, it's easier for an assailant in close quarters to prevent you from drawing at all! it's also possible that it may be easier for an assailant to separate you from your firearm - a nightmare scenario!
3. if you fall on your back, you may injure your spine, something far less likely with a holster worn almost anywhere else
Like I said, I have a nice SOB rig for my .380Auto that I really like, but due to the above factors, there are very limited situations that I use it in.
