How do you have your Crossbreed Supertuck set up? - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

Lucky Strike · 08-25-2007, 03:30 PM

I just got mine in the mail yesterday for my SC9 and have been testing it out with various shirts and such around the house since i won't get my CHL till Sept. Wearing it at 3:30 or 4:00 seems the most comfortable even when sitting. I just was wondering on which of the holsters' four holes do you guys set the clips at. Obviously the grip is the first thing to print so which hole setup will minimize this? I know everyone's body is different just wanted to see what works for you guys This is my first holster too so is it just a sure thing that you'll print if you ever have to bend over? Seems that way to me.

Don't really have an answer, but I'm glad you asked the question. I'm in the exact same position you are. Concealed permit coming in a month or so, just bought a SC9, just ordered a Crossbreek Supertuck, and was just wondering the same thing you're asking.

BTW, how long did the holster take from order to delivery?

I have the same holster, but being a lefty, I wear it at about 9-9:30.

The rear clip is on the 3rd hole and the front one is on the 2nd one. Very comfortable.

As far as delivery time, I was fortunate as I ordered mine shortly after Mark started posting on this site and only waited 10 days. I hear it's more like 8-10 weeks now. It is worth the wait and Mark is a good guy to work with if there is a problem.

I had a couple of problems since I bought it last year. The screws he initially used weren't as strong as the ones he now uses. One of mine broke. I called him and he sent me replacement ones, plus extra ones at no cost. The same thing happened with the clips. One of mine broke and he replaced it with the heavy duty ones he now uses. All for free.

I'd recommend him and his product to anyone.

Best setup for me - but I know alot of the armchair gunners will disagree - is AIWB (about 1oclock). I have my Supertuck setup forward muzzle cant, rise up high, but worn this way I can quickly get my gun regardless of position, even sitting in car, and minimizes printing with loose shirt. Better be really sure about your trigger finger though.

I wear mine about 3:30 with a forward cant. Usually have a tee-shirt tucked in with a light cover shirt buttoned up the front.

Will post some pics tomorrow if I have time.

2:30 with max forward cant. The #1 thing determoning which holes was to get most of the plastic at the level of my waist band.

mandohack · 08-26-2007, 07:41 AM

I wear my XD9 service at 8:00 o'clock (lefty) with the front hook two-holes up to provide a cant that places the grip nicely, comfortably at my side providing the best concealment.

A t-shirt under an over shirt is the norm 99% of the time. I also wear it with just a t-shirt and shorts and have no problem.

Mojoski · 08-26-2007, 10:40 AM

Ok, I said I'd post a few pics, so here they are. I hope you find them helpful.

In this first shot, you can see that I use the second hole from the bottom behind the gun and the third hole from the bottom in front of the gun...

And here you can see how it sits on my belt in this configuration.

I like the cant this configuration gives, and my other goal was to keep the top of my pants aligned with the top of the Kydex portion of the holster. This seems to work pretty well for me.

Let me know if I can help!

edit- never mind, pics show up for me now.

I don't have a Supertuck but it looks like I should try it out.

I have my K&D set to the least amount of cant. I find it conceals better *for me* that way. Once you figure out your ideal cant angle and position, you'll find that it doesn't work best for every pair of pants you have. I find myself adjusting for the first hour of wearing my holster.
