I agree that the fobus is a weakling.

Outside - Blackhawk Serpa

IWB - Milt Sparks

My uncle was Milt Sparks, and therefore I may be a little biased, but look into them...they are pretty well revered as some of the greatest quality holsters ever.

Jeff - you just wanna be cool with all the other folks there in Arizona because they all open carry like it's nothing. LOL...

But honestly, I don't know which ones. I just use shoulder holsters.

for my XD 9 subcompact and service model, I use a blackhawk Serpa holster. Not only is it comfortable, fast on the draw, but it also has a locking system which prevents your gun from falling out!

It conceals just as well as any paddle holster etc I've had

Check out raven concealment, they're the hot ticket these days. I use a bladetech IWB for my full size 1911 most days. I also have several blackhawk serpa's. They have an easy to use retention system and are fairly solid. I can't reccomend fobus for serious self defense work.

Make sure you have a proper belt. It's as important as the holster. The one you bought at the mall is not ok.

+1 I absolutely LOVE my Milt Sparks VM II :rock: I carry a 4" 1911 comfortably all day! The only drawback is waiting to get one or trying to buy one for an inflated price.
