Holster for xD

Do you have a holster for your xD?
What do you use? Naturally I am looking for one that will be concealed, but wanted to see what you guys use.

I'm just using the one that came with it, works really nicely at the range, have not found one for concealed carry yet.

Are you looking for an IWB or a belt holster and are you partial to leather or plastic?

I want it to go into the lower of the back, and hang on to my belt.

I bought a nylon bushwhacker from the local gun shop 14 bucks. It does not fit my 5 inch tactical even though it says it will. Not a bad holster not great for concealing but I want it for the truck between my seat and the console. Will be taking it back hopefully

I bought the GunMate Tactical holster from Cabela's for 30 bucks and it is the best holster I have ever owned. It straps onto your leg with two velcro straps and then has one vertical strap that loops around your belt for support. It definitely won't give you the concealment factor you are looking for, but the holster is unbelievably comfortable and puts the gun right at your fingertips. The best way to describe the holster in one word would be "natural."

Craig, Thanks for the info. After ALOOOOT of resurch I just orderd a CC holster from Smartcarry. ther website is Gun holsters concealed by SmartCarry concealed holsters.

I gave their holster a try because i am most interested in a inside the pants, deep conceilment holster and Smartcarry seamed best to fill the bill. I should get it in about five days and will post my opinion of it after alot of use.

Thank you,
Arthur.

I didn't hear many of you refer to "Right or Left" handed. Consider yourself luck if you are right handed because hardly anyone carries a holster for lefties. I'm also looking for a conseable Lefthanded paddle holster for the XD that I just purchased. Something w/o a thumb strap that is leather, canted and keeps its form over time.
