Crossbreed Holster Question

[Skaven]

The only problem with the CBST is the SUPER long wait time. I actually think that they are taking longer that TX DPS. I ordered it over 6 weeks ago, and I am still waiting. Also for other options check out these guys as well. http://www.comp-tac.com/index.php" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

The Comp-Tac belt clips are about a thousand times more user-friendly, as well.

Hey, just a heads up -- I was about to order the CBST then found this guy over on GlockTalk:

39 pages of satisfied customers. 50 bucks shipped, lifetime warranty, accepts returns. He said his current turn around is 2-3 days. I ordered mine yesterday.

Thanks' for that nyj, I ordred one for my M&P. I've been on the fence about the CBST, but the wait and the $ for the options that I wanted was keeping me from trying it out. I will definitley post once I get it.

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.

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.

how are you liking the holster so far? after finding this guy, i can't understand why anyone would pay $30 more for a CBST or Comp Tac

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?

I am thinking of getting one from the guy on Glock talk. I'm unsure of the combat cut. What are the advantages and disadvantages of this?

Combat cut allows you a better grip around your pistol grip when drawing. As crossbreed puts it, if your not sure if you want it or not, don't get it. And if you decide to get it later, send it back and they will cut it. But once it is cut, there is no going back.

the only disadvantage i can think of with the combat cut is that the grip of the gun will be directly against your skin, unless you wear a shirt tucked in under the holster. the main advantage is being able to more easily get a grip on the gun when drawing. i've never had a holster w/out the combat cut so i'm not sure how difficult it is to get your hand between the gun and the leather of the holster, but if you're not sure then order it without the combat cut and if you decide you want it, you can go ahead and cut it yourself. you might even email or call the guy and ask if he can make some marks on the back of the leather where the combat cut should go just incase you decide to do it yourself later. he was more than accommodating with a few of my nit-picky requests so i'm sure he wouldn't mind doing something like that for you.

[Defndr90]

Thanks for the inputs. I am leaning towards going without the cut to see if I like it. Thats a great idea to have him mark the cut on the back in case I want to do that later.

I don't have the combat cut, because quite frankly I prefer comfort over getting a complete grip. I can still get the pistol out of the holster quickly enough in my opinion, and it's very comfortable to wear all day long. I'm willing to gamble perhaps a slightly slower draw over daily comfort, but that's just me.
