I've had one and have no problems with it.

Actually I am thinking of breaking down and getting a "man purse"/gadget bag. As much stuff as I carry around one it starting to make sense. That way I just throw the ole smoke wagon in it.
Yea, I have several Fobus holsters too, and they’ve worked fine for me. A couple are over 6 years old and still going…

If you try the bag approach I would be interested in how it works for you. Sometimes when I’m custom baling hay I use a fanny pack to hold my pistol, ammo, wallet, and keys. It works out great. I don't have to worry about droping things while crawling around the baler :grin:
Tx Rancher,

I was dove hunting this weekend with a friend here from work and this is the bag he carries:

As cheap as it is I will probably be giving it a try as well. It's big enough for a weapon, spare magazine, wallet, ipod, cell phone, and maybe a few other small items.

I second the crossbreed. The wait is a little excessive (6 weeks), but the holster is top notch. I carry the full size 45 XD. It's VERY comfortable and pretty well hidden with the clothes I wear. I can wear my pistol all day, even in the heat we have, without it bothering me.
