OK, I've searched my ass and I have not found definitive answers. I have a sidekick IWB holster which is fine as far as comfort goes but I am concerned about it's moisture retention or transfer and rusting my XD 9 4" Service (melonite). Uncle Mike's site says it won't happen so I thought I'd ask if anyone has had their XD (melonite) rust in this holster?
Have you had your XD (melonite) rust in a Galco Underwraps Belly Band?
Blackhawk SERPA Sportster?
I have realized that I will need no less than three holsters to accommodate all carry situations/dress styles. I think an IWB, Belly Band and a good paddle holster should cover it. Why these 3? I never, ever, ever, ever wear a belt....ever, and I'm not going to start anytime soon.
money is not an issue but I have read that leather, even good leather can absorb/transfer moisture and cause holster wear, will Nylon do the same? What about DeSantis NYPAD holsters?
My main concern is rust prevention and my second is holster wear even though I know its inevitable.
Thanks.
