Well I founf the two holsters that I am going to narrow it down to they are the Blackhawk Angle Adjust Paddle that I talk about at the bottom of this post and now the Uncle Mike's Paddle Holster. If anyone has used the uncle mikes i would appreciate a small review.

Hey guys I have been trying to find the perfect holster over the last month and I think that I have finnaly found what I am looking for. The holster that I really like is the Blackhawk Angle adustable paddle holster for the XD compact. I was wondering if anyone has used this holster before and if so I was wondering if the gun can be drawn from the holster with out pulling the holster with the gun?
here is the link to the holster.

hmmmm, seems pricey for functionality you can get in other holsters. I have Crossbreed SuperTuck with adjustability/J hooks, easy on/off and very comfortable with XD9SC or XD45.

I use a CTAC inside the waistband tuckable holster personally, but in answer to your question, I've got a couple Blackhawk paddle type holsters for my XD45 and I've never had any problems with them. Very fast presentation with both holsters, but both of my holsters are kydex, unlike the one that you are questioning.

I have Comp-Tac paddle holsters for my Kimber 1911, my wife's XD9SC and my XD45C. I also have Comp-Tac CTAC inside the waistband holsters for my Kimber and my XD45C.

Obviously I wouldn't have spent the kind of money that I have on holsters from one particular company were I not completely sold on both the quality and performance of the goods. It's my opinion that you simply cannot go wrong dealing with Randy, Cristi and Tammi over at Comp-Tac. Top notch people; top notch products.

I don't have first hand experience with the paddle type but I have the pancake 3 slot for my 4" service. It's great quality and comfortable. I plan on buying the paddle type myself. The thumb break is quick to get out of.
