So I received my CHL yesterday razz and spent today getting it laminated and trying to find a simple IWB holster.

The shop I went to had a ton of Don Hume's, some Uncle Mike's, and a few other various holsters. The only "XD" IWB holsters that they had were all left handed.

Luckily, the shop had a used XD-9 that they let me use to check the fit of holsters, since I, of course, did not bring mine. It turned out that the H715-M that fit the best is the #30-1 which is meant for Sig 225,228,229, and 229R. I checked out the Don Hume web site and it looks like the 715's for XD's are indeed different, but this one seems to fit really nice.

Has anyone else done this? I searched google and XDTalk for about an hour before I posted this, but couldn't seem to come up with an answer. Here are a couple of pics:

Thanks Bruce, that's good to know. I really wanted to confirm that I wasn't doing something stupid, hehe.

Thanks for the comment on the pics.

I'm really liking this holster so far, I have been carrying it at 3 and canted forward a bit. It nestles nicely into my spare tire.
