Update: based on comments here and on other forums, I ordered a Remora holster (the 8R-UC to be precise). First impressions: 1.

It's finally here!! I can stop obsessing over it!

Of course, I do still wonder why they sent it Pony Express; mail shouldn't take a full week to get from Austin to Houston. But that doesn't matter now: the sun is shining, birds singing, etc., etc.
