XDSC Crossdraw holster of choice

[craig_o]

There is a lot of love out there for the Crossbreed super tuck holster at the 230-530 position, but I have a hard time finding anyone talk about using it as a cross draw holster.

If you have used the CBST for crossdraw, I'd love to hear how it worked for you. If you have a different crossdraw holster, by all means talk about it.

I'm 5'9" 190 33" relaxed jeans.

Bonus points for pictures.

BUMP.

Come on; somebody anybody.

For under $22.00 you can't go wrong.

The only reason I can think of to use a crossdraw is while driving.
Other than that it is alot slower to draw moving your arm across your body than it is to just reach down

I carry cross draw because I sit a lot during work (driving and desk work), but it's also nice because if someone tries to grab it I can retain it with my weak hand and beat the snot out of them with my strong hand.

Also, to get into a position to grab it you pretty much have to approach me from the front and be a lefty because I carry at about 10:30 to 11 o'clock position in a steeply canted holster.

And as for speed, sit in your car or a office chair and try to draw sometime. It really sucks. Cross draw is way faster in that position.

what's your holster choice for this function?

I couldn't find one on the market that I liked so I bought a Fobus Roto-Holster to try various angles and positions, then I had one custom made at a local leather shop. I also had them make me a custom mag pouch to match. Total cost was $125 combined, but prices may vary.

The Fobus was a good stand in until the new holster was complete. I wanted both the holster and mag pouch to ride low on the belt for better comfort. I have a new holster being made to solve a few minor issues I have with the current one, but the mag pouch is great.

I also OC regularly, so I wanted something that looked nice, but not flashy.

I'd love to find something like this for IWB and a XDSC. With all the 45,882 people who own a Crossbreed, I'm surprised I haven't hearrd on any posts about CD.
