Anyone use the Fist #1A holster? - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

I have an XD9 service and I have been considering this holster and I have a few questions. First, is it reinforced at the top for reholstering? Also, how is the comfort? It looks decent for the price but just wanted some input before purchasing. Thanks!

I've got a FIST #7 so I can't speak to the comfort factor of the one you are looking at. All FIST holsters, that don't come with it as standard, can have either a partial or full reinforcement added to aid in reholstering. You can see these under the holster options section on their webpage. They make a nice product.

I have not had experience with the #1A holster but I do have a #k7 with the thin kydex for my kahr pm9. I have not found a holster that is more comfortable and as thin as the #k7. I always use the split j-hook setup, and have found it to be the easiest setup to use with the fist holsters. I also found the cantable feature very useful. (very nice for the month after the holidays when you try to loose the 15 lbs that you gained from eating too much

) I have also found that depending on the pants or the belt that I use it is nice to change the angle of draw to increase comfort. Regardless, fist makes a very good product, and you won't be dissapointed.

Its not reinforced and yes I love it, very comfortable holster and the only IWB holster I own for this particular gun.

Is it easy to reholster with it or does it collapse to much?
