I've got it in my head now that I would like to try something leather IWB and with a single offset clip (tuckable is not necessary unless it is purposeful for the construction of the holster). I've been searching the internet and a lot of the companies that I have found that have made them are either not taking orders or are so far out it's like they are not.
I'm looking for something like these examples:

Gun Glove Holsters also caught my eye because of price but I'm slightly worried about the ride height and the leather thickness (or lack of)

Any other suggestions? I'm not sitting on a fat wallet but I am willing to pay for a quality piece.

Thanks!

Had one, did not work for me, sold it.

It is a very nice holster made by HBE (Pro-TL), superb quality, but "offset" design is more suitable for wheel guns (resulting in less bulk) than for pistols. Since the clip is not centered on the holster, the weapon tends to shift to a certain degree.

I have an Alessi APX holster for my J-frame Smith and like it a lot. I've also got the Alessi Deep Cover but I really prefer the APX since I carry in the appendix position (1:30). Here's the website: http://shop.alessigunholsters.com/Belt-Holster/APX

I'm thinking about getting another APX for my K9.

Also, I posted earlier about my experience with Alessi....great people to work with. Search the forum for "alessi".

I'm finding this to be what I'm seeing as well, I think I'm set on going a different direction.

;) for the PM/CM series, I found that that I like the $65 Mitch Rosen Clipper more than those of $100+ range... The clipper is simple, effective, easy on/off, secure, comfy and LOOOWWWWW riding - which I prefer. Clipper is in the $35-$40 range in the used market...

Hey guys. I just finished this holster. It took me while to work out the correct tension, draw, and I had custom make the belt clip. Anyway here is my CM9 in a dark mahoghany pocket/iwb holster. It uses a single offset clip that can be left on while in the pocket. I haven't had much time with it yet, but my initial impression is good. It's very comfortable (even without and undershirt). It does print in my jeans, but the pockets are small and it prints square. Not like a gun. Tell me what you guys think.
