Comp-Tac C-TAC
I'm considering this IWB Holster when I get my CCW and from looking at the pics on the website
 It looks like that me being left handed I could order the RH model and wear it in the location like in the picture above (except on my left hip) and still get to it with my left hand....does this seem reasonable??

Just saw the crossbreed site and they look much more comfortable, but the above question is still valid....thoughts?

It's a matter of being able to acquire the proper grip. To reach behind your hip, palm facing out, slide your whole hand behind the grip and into your waistband, drawing, rotating to the vertical, and bringing your sights up is a much more complicated process than gripping from the outside and bringing the gun up to fire. Keep it simple. Try both what you're thinking and the traditional (grip oriented to the rear) with an UNLOADED pistol in your waistband. You'll quickly see why the holster is designed to be used as pictured.

Ok, fair enough. My other question is this, I'm not a big guy...5'9" 32waist, I don't think its going to conceal very well lol....anybody out there my size carried IWB with any luck...i.e. doesn't look like you have grip shaped tumor on your waist?

Comp-TAC Good 2 Go
Anything you get from Comp-Tac will be good to go.
 Trust me they are quality holsters and they are well Engineered.

Being of similar size, I agree with VAX i have had a hard time finding a IWB holster that won't be groosly obvious that there is somthing there. The crossbreeds look good and so do the comp-tac's but if you add the generic two inches to my waist it seems that it would be blatantly obvious, if i am mistaken please say so i am really frustrated!!!

I think I am just going to end up with a OWB paddle from Don Hume that can also be used as high ride belt and when I carry just leave my shirt untucked...I'm not gonna carry that often at all so I think thats the best option.

Try that
You can always get another holster.
 I have a bunch of other holsters I tried before I found the Comp-Tac Pro Undercover I now use for all my carry handguns.

I second the comment regarding the high quality of Comp-Tac holsters.
