I’d love to know what holster you’re currently using and how it compares to your past experiences with other holsters.
 
Which one do you want to hear about? I've had several hundred pistols and holsters over the years. Just ordered another IWB Pro from ON Your 6 Designs for a Springfield XD Mod3 I picked up last week.

my favorite all time holsters is an Askins Avenger I bought from Lobo Gun Leather before it was sold to new owners.

the most hated holster made, in my opinion, is anything from VersaCarry. My dogs wouldnt even chew that cheap, Chinese leather like stuff.
 
I've carried a 1911 in a Galco paddle holster probably since the mid-90's and usually wear it daily. I have tried several and this is the most comfortable for me, easy on and off. I do have a Diamond D Alaskan chest holster currently on order for a different application for the price I hope I like it.

Let’s talk about the new ON Your 6 IWB Pro since it’s the latest buzz. I want to hear how it holds up after you’ve really put it to the test, especially with the XD Mod3. Comfort and concealment for an entire day are always the hot topics. And yeah… the VersaCarry opinion isn’t exactly winning any popularity contests around here 😄 You’re definitely not alone in that sentiment.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. That kind of long-term perspective really elevates our discussions!
 
In much the same way as Jester560, I have carried many, many types over the years as ideas, materials and carry techniques evolved. I’ve used some high-end such as Milt Sparks, Galco, and even custom made set ups. 💸 Kydex and injection molded plastics have really changed the game for me. My current favorite (and very best value today, in my opinion) is R&R Holsters, IWB Hybrid Kydex and Leather. I own several for several carry arms and I wear one all day, every day. Very comfortable and secure. They have a website and also sell on eBay. Give one a try and see what ya think! Good stuff.
