Based on information found on this forum, I purchased a holster from PJ holsters. My comments are as follows.
Quality – Excellent
Gun Fit – Excellent
IWB Concealment – Excellent
Comfort – Excellent
Draw and Return to Holster - Excellent
Delivery – Excellent
Price – Excellent
I would advise others that need a really great holster to get one now.
I will pass the word on to my friends and the folks at our local shooting range.

So after reading your post 7 or 8 times and carefully trying to read between the lines to decipher any hidden messages it seems you are mildly please and content with the PJ line of holsters?
Sounds like it's worth a look see if I'm reading your Tony the Tiger meaning clearly.

Yeah. Mine is GRRREAT, too! The only holster I have that it and the gun totally DISAPPEAR when I am wearing it! Can't feel it there at all, nor the weight of the gun, NOTHING! It is a tuckable IWB with J-hook. If I had it to do over, I would forget the tuck option and get the closed Kydex belt clip.

i was equally as pleased with the holster i got from pjholster.com. the one thing i didn't care for was the j-hook belt attachment, which was what i asked for but decided i didn't like after trying it. no worries, paul offered to remold it into a clip on belt loop for me at no charge. i also ordered a front pocket holster from him, they both shipped out yesterday and should be here in a couple days so i'll post some more pics. i'm also going to do a more detailed review for the "gear" subforum because i was that please with the holster. i also have to say that paul has some of the most personable and excellent customer service of any company i've ever dealt with, and he is more than willing to make your holster exactly the way you want it.
here's the one i had with the j-hook

What was your issue with the J hook? It looks kile the easiest on and off. I always use a double thick gunbelt.

The problem is that it doesn't use the gunbelt. All the weight of the pistol and holster is supported by the pants.

I love mine, but I didn't go with a j hook. paul gave me a closed loop made to the width of the belt i carry my guns with. Great service and product i'll post pictures in a few....

this. nothing wrong with the design of a j-hook, i just found it weighed down my pants a little.

+1. I wanted the easy on and off, but it would sag my pants down, with the J-hook dropping over 1/2" below the bottom edge of the belt and the gun and holster dropping the same amount. I use a good, thick belt, so that is not the problem.
My solution is to convert it to attaching to the back of the belt using Velcro. I completed the first half of the project tonight, putting a patch of Velcro hook on the inside, flat part of the J-hook and a 3" strip of Velcro loop on the inside of the belt right behind my hip where I carry the holster. I am letting the adhesive set tonight, then tomorrow I am going to cut the hook part of the J-hook off. My holster has the tuck option, so with my modification I will have the ultimate in totally concealed carry! And my enhancement also lets me set the cant any way I want it.

I am very interested to see how that works out, because I am planning on doing the same with mine.

Just a bump to see if you've carried it this way, and how it worked out.

Yes, I did it. A little sloppy. Had to trim some Velcro off at the top and couldn't get the glue to come off. It works well, though. Easy on, easy off and stays put.

Paul can do it for you when the holster is made, or later if you return it to him. I'm sure he will do a neater job than I did, and probably send you some Velcro loop to go on your belt.

I'm in the exact same boat as you--I already bought the same configuration guessing that I might do this conversion. His CS is great, and he's offered to change it around for me, but I think I can do this conversion just fine, and I don't want to make him go to the trouble. My wife has her own business making products in our basement much like it appears he does, and I know that re-do's hurt the bottom line, especially when it's just the customer changing his mind.
I also added a thin piece of leather on the back side of mine, which I think makes it much more comfortable. I think getting a real gun belt will help, too. I'm just using my regular belt so far. All in good time, my license probably won't come for another few weeks...
ETA: I'm only carrying it in the house right now. I'm doing it right.

I just ordered my third PJ IWB Rig from CoachG (Paul). He makes a top shelf product at a very decent price with quick turnaround times.
