I have a 10.00 uncle mike's that I changed the cant & drop on. It is very comfortable and I can carry my Pm 9 without a belt! beer bellys and belts don't mix.

Kewl, How did you do that?Did you cut the stitiching and resew the clip? I have one that is almost right, but the daily corn dogs and french fries are changing things.

Ive got a similar holster for my 908 that my wife customized on her sewing machine. Added a slight cant to it, then sewed an outline of the 908 into the holster so it fits the gun tightly. It fits good and carries well for a cheap holster, I'd recommend this "customizing" to anyone!

I cut the stiching and then just guessed at the cant & drop. I used "Goop Household contact adhesive and sealant" which I thought would just be temporary untill I had had the fit correct. It's been glued for around a year with no signs of loosening.

Okay, here's the feedback on the holster.
Its a great holster. I give it high marks. Since I'm a short, smallish-framed woman, I have difficulty concealing a spare magazine, let alone a whole gun. I found that when I clipped this holster to my underwear inside my pants at the 1 or 2 o'clock position, the butt barely stuck out the top, allowing access, but staying concealed.
This holster is very versatile. You can wear it in any direction. It also has a place to weave a belt, so it can be worn OWB.

Good job venus. Some guns take several tries & some work real quick.

Well, Venus, which gun are you packin'? Regardless, you're lucky to have found a holster that works this quickly. Of course, there's always a chance that your mind will wonder off and you'll see something else that you think looks interesting enough to investigate further.

I pack a Bersa .380. I like it.
I do want to get the Springfield Armory 9mm. Dad has one, and I qualified for my CHL with his. It shoots well, and I like the fact that the ammo for it is so cheap.

If you are referring to the XD-9 you will REALLY like it. I know I cajole any non-1911 frame, all in play, but that XD is a quality arm. Especially for ladies. Keep bragging on Dad's, borrow it if possible, & remember Christmas is only 7 months away. That comes from a dear ol Dad. Keep
