Nice, and thanks for sharing. I'm in the process of shopping myself, so this helps.
I would also be interested in hearing your commentary on your various holsters: Which ones you prefer, and why.

I've got way too many to post pictures - fifty plus. I'm still looking for the perfect holster, but so far that one has been illusive. Since I don't do IWB, that eliminates about twenty and leaves me with belt, paddle, and pocket holsters, plus one "Smart-Carry" that I've used twice. I usually just grab what's convenient and matches my belt colour.

A new design for me from James Dean: a tuckable clip AIWB holster that is low riding and canted backwards for my S&W 638 Airweight revolver (on the way to me). I envisioned it and James fulfilled my vision precisely with this beauty! :D

Two of my favorites compared here in this photo, a Galco Concealable with a HK P2000sk and the Mitch Rosen Premier containing a CW9. Note the additional cant the Galco offers. I like this position very much for an easy draw from a 4:00 position.

My Seecamp rides in an excellent Hedley holster. Though this terrific holster maker has passed to his reward, his daughter continues the tradition of excellence.

A shoulder holster I love is the Galco Executive. Light, comfy, easy on and no thumb strap. Not made for many guns though. Here along with a Sig P232 SL.

Comp-Tac MTAC Spartan for my Kahr CW9. I slightly modified this holster by cutting off the unneeded leather forward of the barrel.

Admittedly being very "old school", I have a preference for leather over Kydex as to holster construction. I am, however, intrigued by the PJ holster, and may give it a try. In the meantime, my favorites for concealed carry (in order of most-used) are:

In addition, I recently received a back-ordered Don Hume holster from Kahr. This particular holster is suitable for wear in either behind-the-hip carry, or as an appendix-carry rig.

If you don't want to wait for a Don Hume because his waiting list is 4 months now. I'd suggest calling up Larry and Isabel from Tennessee Holster Co. They make the IWB's faster (mine arrived in less than a week). Also, they can sew the clip in the holster like the DH's. I personally think their leather work is probably the cleanest in the business. I just got mine for my XDm 3.8 and it fits perfectly. Not too snug and not too loose. However, enough rambling, please see below:

Just got my PJ Holster yesterday. I went with the IWB Belt Clip model. Couldn't be more happy with this little guy. Everyone says they're so thin you forget you're wearing it, which I thought was a bunch of BS, but it's true. This is an amazingly comfortable holster with amazing retention too!!! Two thumbs waaaay up for Paul and his PJ Holster!

If you like Kydex and want lightweight...I suggest the Comp-Tac Infidel...This has a great retention and fits slimmer than any of my leather IWB's...They have a turn around of approximately 7-10 business days and make them to your order and gun...

In my experience, the soft tuck was too thick form CC with my cm9. It had a reinforced mouth which was quite a bit thick. It worked but as a smaller person it added too much to my belt line. The construction and price were great but it wasn't the holster for me.

Here is my DeSantis Sof-Tuck Holster with my CW40. I like the holster because you can turn the belt clip to adjust for about any carry style or cant, except for cross-draw. I like it at the angle shown, wearing the pistol at about 4:30, the gun handle sits up nice and tight against my back in the kidney area, unless I bend over at the waist, then it really sticks out. Works great with just an oversize t-shirt over it, and it makes the gun handle real easy to grab. The cost with shipping and handling under $35.00. I like mine well enough. I could see where it might be to bulky for the CM/PM lines, but that reinforced top makes it easier to re-holster a pistol.

I use a Remora holster for my CW45 with the CT Laserguard. I'm surprised how well it stays in place without any hooks or anything. Just make sure if you loosen your belt up after a big meal, snug it back up before you go anywhere, or the holster can get loose and slide down your pants leg, if like me you wear looser fitting jeans so you can fit an IWB holster in. Not a fun situation. It happened once to me, and I've not let it happen again. Fortunately, It was just outside my home, so I was able to get back in the house and take care of the situation. With the Remora, I pull the holster out and put the gun back in it, before returning them to my carry position.

Photo of my new CM9 back from Kahr (replaced dinged slide with new one & smoothed out sharp edges on top rear of polymer frame) along with my new Garrett Industries Silent Thunder Slim II holster - olive drab kydex with 'natural' leather lining, appendix carry iwb especially for pistols with 3" or less barrels. (Magazine is not locked in since I had been racking the slide before I took the photo - forgot to lock it.)
