Man that is some heavy leather. I did adjust the font clip by one hole for a little more forward cant, and I did cut the leather around the mag release. I emptied the chamber and did some drawing and holster and about half the time the mag would eject on reholstering. Luckily I'm a bonsaier and carving tiny trees isn't much different than carving leather so the cut looks fairly professional. It is quite different than OWB, though I only wore it for about 45 min. I do plan on posting a review in a new thread in the equipment forum once I've worn it for a week or so.Search found 6 matches

Re: Crossbreed Holster Question
Well guess what was waiting in the mailbox for me when I got home this evening? Man that is some heavy leather. I did adjust the font clip by one hole for a little more forward cant, and I did cut the leather around the mag release. I emptied the chamber and did some drawing and holster and about half the time the mag would eject on reholstering. Luckily I'm a bonsaier and carving tiny trees isn't much different than carving leather so the cut looks fairly professional. It is quite different than OWB, though I only wore it for about 45 min.

Re: Crossbreed Holster Question
I did order the the combat cut. I wear a high ride OWB now so I appreciate being able to get a full grip. I've the .45 compact, which M&P did you go with?rmr1923 wrote:excellent choice, i ordered a holster from this guy for my M&P and it's awesome. not only was it considerably cheaper than a CBST, but i got it in my mailbox exactly a week from the date i placed my order. i've found that "sweet spot" to be at about the 4:00 position with quite a bit of forward cant (as much as the pre-cut holes will allow) and with even a light t-shirt the gun literally disappears.RAM4171 wrote:Thanks' for that nyj, I ordred one for my M&P.

i'd recommend the combat cut for your M&P, but even with the combat cut i still had to make a small cut around my mag release. i found that when i strapped my belt on, the holster pressed on the mag release just enough to eject it when i'd sit down or move around a bit. other than that, it's a perfect fit.
