I posed this question in another forum with little luck. any help here?

I just bought my new xd 45 acp 5" tactical and I'm having trouble finding a thigh holster. Can anyone help?

Thanks

Check with HSGI. I have a couple of their holsters and I prefer then even over my Safariland 6004. I used mine with my Glock 21, USP-45, Beretta 92 and Sig P226 so I'm thinking that with the adjustable thumbstrap fitting an XD-45 isn't going to be a problem either. Matter of fact, how about you ship me your XD-45 and I'll see if it fits my holster.

Yeah, I know what you mean. After I get off this TDY, I'm planning on looking around for one too. The wife has an XD-40 Service and I have to admit that it's a pretty nice piece. Of course, as soon as I do find a 5" XD45, the wife will probably claim it as her own.

Cheaper than dirt has got a bunch. I have not purchased one, but they claim to be universal, and look halfway decent. http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/thigh_bjgi.htm

Ah yes, the cheap stuff. Lord knows CTD sells a lot of that crap.

Been there, done that, and I found you get what you pay for. Actually, you pay a bit more when you buy cheap gear, find out it's not worth the money you paid, then have to shell out more money for the better gear you now realize you should have got in the first place.

Take my advice, buy quality and you only cry once.

Point taken. I thought they looked a little cheap, thought I would let ya know anywho. I've seen other thigh holsters somewhere... I just have to remember where....
