First Impression of SuperTuck.
Awesome! Haven't figured out the best position but just sliding it on for the first time I didn't know a holster can actually be comfortable. I was carrying a Firestorm 380 in a Split Decision from High Noon Holster but this Supertuck for my 5inch 1911 is great. My 1911 is almost twice the size as the Firestorm but feels so much better.
Took about 6 days from ordering it to arrive at my door.

I just got one myself, and those are the clips that came with it. Crossbreed is an openly Christian company. Also, they are metal clips.
Yes, the world has gotten smaller, but it will always be too big to be ruled by unelected bureaucrats.

Got mine a week or so ago, the clips are standard now and are metal. Top notch product.

Nice setup! I ordered one for my PT24/7 Pro DS.
I am carrying my PT1911 in a Pure Kustom Holsters "Black Ops" combination IWB and Belt Slide.

Given where the belt will sit on that thing, it looks like there will be a whole lot of gun below the belt. My XD40 rides much higher than that. I wonder if it shouldn't have been changed a little to get the 1911 in a higher ride position. I haven't used one with a 1911 yet, but when I first saw your pic, I thought, "Wow, that is a lot of slide below the Kydex."
Could be my imagination, as it is late, but that was my first impression.

I would NOT want those clips on my Supertuck.
I have no objection to the symbol, but I don't want anything that draws attention to the clips, which are the only things that show when the shirt is tucked. I can just imagine the cross symbol catching someone's eye and inviting notice and/or questions.
I have two Supertucks and if the clips aren't available in plain metal or the old plain plastic they will be my last.

alienbobey,
By just looking at it without the belt, I thought the same thing. But, with the belt on and a shirt tucked in, it is less eye catching than the old kydex clips (they cracked and CB sent me the new metal clips). The cross pattern is small and almost unnoticeable on my brown belt. I like them better than the kydex clips due to their greater concealment qualities.

Excellent holster. It gets even more comfortable the more you wear it.

I have a question for the SuperTuck users. Does the barrel stick out of the Kydex for every gun?
I wouldnt want the barrel of the P11 to stick out.
The "openly Christian" thing is another plus for me.

My observation has been that some weapons may have the muzzle exposed beyond the kydex, but I haven't seen many muzzles extend below/beyond the leather portion of the Supertuck.
It appears that the subject Supertuck was built for a Commander or Officers sized 1911.(?) Call Mark at Crossbreed. If there's a problem, I'm positive he'll make it right..!
What we've got here is failure to communicate.

I believe the height is adjustable.

Right, the clips are adjustable, which moves the entire holster on the belt. It does not change where the 1911 sits in relation to the holster.
What I should have said is that I think the gun looks to ride to low on the leather rather than "too much gun below the belt".

i have a supertuck for my xd 45 service, the barrel does come below the kydex, but not below the leather, i also like the fact that they are an openly christian company, besides that i have had great customer service with them when needed.....my holster is about three or four years old, and is great.....i need to get me a pair of those clips, they are awsome
