XD Holster
I know most of you don't like the holster that came with your gun. What exactly was it about the holster that you didn't care for? I got to looking at mine and I noticed that it is adjustable for the gun (tighten or loosen), and I do know that you have to wear a 1 1/2" belt.

Not left-handed, not adaptable to my 2-inch belt = sucks.

It's plastic and it's doesn't hold the gun tight to the body for CCW. I think the tension is inconsistant and affects the draw adversely unless the screw is loosened all the way.
On a related note, a quality Kydex holster for a Sig 226, a good hair dryer, oven mit and about 30 minutes and you can have a killer custom fit holster that's secure AND fast.  |

Not left handed, and the belt loops hold the holster too far from the body, making it cant out slightly when there is a gun in it.

+1 for not being good for CCW. I want something tucked in a little tighter to the body with the grip angled more forward.

 Nothing like ripping off a duct-tape-sized band-aid every time you remove your piece. In the interest of truthfulness, I recommend duct tape as a last-ditch, spent-all-my-money-on-beer-and-ammo redneck cosmetic substitute for a quality hard-chrome refinish. Notice that this is referring to a firearm-based application, where it is completely acceptable. Use on holsters, on the other hand, is NOT recommended on the basis it will make you look like a jackass. See the difference?

No soft-chrome holster to match the soft-chrome slide?
