thanks guys, I sent them an e-mail from their web site a couple of days ago asking about how to order one. I am sitting here right now with mine on for the XD9SC and will get one for the XD45c when I get it. Same thing for the 1911. I will check with them again today for the 1911.

Colt Commander in a crossbreed supertuck at 5:00. This conceals well with just a shirt over it. I am a little uncomfortable with it tucked in as there is a very obvious bump at my belt line, but untucked it is great. The other way I carry is with a Fobus paddle holster a 3:00. This is hands down the most comfortable way for me, but requires a vest or a light jacket for cover. Basically, Monday through Thursday I am in the crossbreed, and Friday, Saturday, Sunday I am using the Fobus. Full size 1911s conceal better than you would think due to their slim width.

I carry a S&W 1911PD in a Milt Sparks VMII (IWB) at 4 o'clock with a t-shirt tucked under the holster (for comfort) and an overshirt untucked. It helps to have a dark outer shirt, or one with a pattern of some kind. I also wear a bullhide 1.75" belt from thebeltman.net. A solid belt really makes all the difference.
Anybody know of a shoulder holster than can be worn under a shirt and stay hidden? I'm a big guy but the straps seem to stand out at the shoulders and upper back.
