I just stumbled upon this site. I bought my Xd SC in 9MM a few weeks ago and it has become my regular CCW instead of my Beretta Cougar 8000F. I switch back and forth depending on what I have on but the XD9 is now my primary choice. I use a DeSantis IWB but I am looking for a better IWB and welcome suggestions.

I also have a Beretta 92FS Inox, The Cougar 9MM The Beretta CX4 Storm 9MM that take the 92 mags and a Sig Trailside. Currently looking for the right AR-15 M4.

Thanks for having me.

Welcome to the board!! There are many good holster makers available, i personally use a Kramer, but have heard great things about many others. One of the other board regulars, may be a mod by now, once had a list of good sources for 'gunleather'; be it leather or synthetic. You could start by looking at Pistolgear.com or http://xd-hs2000.com/ as a startng point. Both are forum sponsors and offer great service.

Thanks for the welcome. LTC I have been thinking about getting my slide either chromed at Tripp or PolyCeramic Coated at CCR. How do you like the chroming job any negatives. And is that Jack Russel in 9mm or .40

Headhunter13, I love my hard chrome job and Tripp could not be better. Two weeks or less turn around time. It is durable and not shiny (which I like). I am very happy with it. I don't know what the Jack Russell is-sometimes she is just shot out of a shotgun. Wish I had that much energy.

Ahhhhhhhh a scatter gun terrier I see.

I have 3 projects that I am wanting to start at once here and have to decide which to do first. I am looking at a couple of AR-15 M4's, have a trigger job and either night or adjustable rear sights put on my Cougar and the chroming/coating of the slide on my XD9.

Decisions, decisions, decisons

Some very worthy projects for sure.
