Hey,THAT's not an XD but Mark will make one for your XD. Just got the new Crossbreed Quik Clip for my Glock 26 and am impressed. I carry my XD40 and XD45ACP in a Crossbreed SuperTuck but the new Quik Clip is easier on and off, still comfortable, and "cantable" too. Shown is a LH model.

I am well into week 5 of my 6 week wait.

I ordered the QuikClip for my XD40 Service (left handed even) back in August, and the wait is killing me. lol

I received my QuikClip about a month ago and I like it a lot. After a few days I figured out the "sweet spot" for it, and it rides nice and comfortably for me now. It conceals very well, too, holding tight against my body.

I ordered mine for my S&W CS40 pistol, which is a compact single-stack 40... so not an apples to apples comparison for the XD. But, I do have a Comp-Tac CTAC for my XD-40 service, so I can make somewhat of a comparison. Not that the CTAC is uncomfortable, but the leather backing behind the QuikClip just makes it more comfortable than the CTAC. I think it holds the gun closer to my body than the CTAC does, too. The one thing I do like better about the CTAC, however, is that due to the absence of lining behind the firearm, it is easier to get a strong grip on the pistol before drawing. With the QuikClip, I've found it is harder to get my thumb around the gun until I am already drawing the gun out of the holster. It is just something I noticed while practicing drawing, and with practice is not much of an issue.

Another small criticism I have of the Crossbreed QuikClip is that it was very saturated with the black dye when it arrived. Again, this is hardly a complaint worth mentioning... I used a dry paper towel and some elbow grease to remove most of it, but I did notice that my hands would get black smudges when practicing draw from it. I emailed Mark and got a quick response with a recommendation of a $4 product from Walmart: Kiwi's Leather Lotion. I picked some up and it cleaned up the excess surface dye like a charm.

Final conclusion? It's a great holster and well worth the money and wait. It fits me well, never shifts on me throughout the day, conceals great under the clothes I normally wear, and is quite comfortable. Before I ordered I had concerns about it being "sturdy" enough with the one off-set clip, but it holds solid and never shifts on me. For those waiting for yours to arrive... you won't be disappointed.

I just ordered another Quik Clip for my Sig P239. The biggest plus with the Quik Clip is the easy on and off. And Mark has come out with a much improved clip that really "locks" on to your belt - even those thick reinfoced web belts that have become so popular.
