XD Subcompact 40 IWB holster

I have been having a tough time finding a good IWB holster or even in pocket holster for my XD Subcompact 40. The trigger slot seems to be bigger than most subcompacts. Anyone have a XD Subcompact holster they use and are happy with?

I think I found one. XD Subcompct owners check this out. Says "Glock" but the Cheaper Than Dirt Holster Wizzard" said it will work.

I'm gonna blow the horn for Crossbreed holsters again. I carry a PT140, a Taurus 247 OSS and a Springfield XD 45 all in the same holster. Ya the trigger is a tad bigger and squared off in the XD just like in the Taurus line so the XD will fit in good. He probably will custom fit one for you for your model, but if he doesn't have that particular mold then the Taurus PT140 will fit your XD with no problems.

Very comfortable on a long days carry...

Just got mine in today. Wearing my XD in it right now as I type and couldn't be happier. Can't even feel the gun and it comes in and out so easy. It says "Glock" but fits the XD Subcompact perfectly.

Some of the best holsters around are made by www.ubgholsters.com
One man operation, 7-9 week wait but well worth it.

Just clicked on the cheaper than dirt holster for $7.97. That's like buying a pair of socks for 100 bucks and putting on a $5 pair of shoes around them. You have a $500+ pistol, don't spoil it with anything less than a $70 holster. And you will receive all kinds of compliments while wearing it. Treat yourself, you deserve it. Just my 2 cents.

That was the only IWB holster I could find that fits the XD Subcompact. I even called Springfield directly and they didn't know of any that fir the trigger guard. Plus, this $7.97 holster fits, looks and feels great. Quality leather with great comfort. Why spend $70? I want something to comfortably carry and hide my gun not a high dollar status symbol.
