    New CC gun owner

    Hello all from Washington state, which, for a state that is surprisingly liberal (well, at least the Seattle area!), grants a lot of leeway to CC residents. So, the whole CC thing is very new to me so I've got lots of learning to do. This seemed like a great site for that!

    Purchased my first firearm about 2 months ago, a S&W Bodyguard .380. Really like the gun, especially for CC, but I knew after seeing/using my buddy's guns I needed to upgrade so I just purchased a Springfield xdm 3.8 .40cal which I really like. Great looking gun, compact and I really like the 16 + 1 magazine.

    My question concerns holsters. I've got an Inside-the-waistband holster for my Bodyguard, which works great and is very comfortable. For those of you who own the xdm, what has worked well for you for a comfortable CC holster? I wouldn't rule out another ITW holster but I'm open to other styles as well.

    Any recs out there? Thanks and great sight. I've already learned a lot.

    Look at the top of the page lots of great holster out there. I choose the crossbreed supertuck and the comp-tac MTAC for my XDsc. I use a pocket holster for my BG380. I am starting to look around for a single hook IWB as well, I just need some time away from work to get to the local gunstore.

    Welcome to the forum. One of the person I know uses custom leather belt holster. Not sure whether it will solve your purpose or not but it's good.

    Welcome from Ohio!

    Like a few have stated before, sponsors above make great holsters.. IWB (inside the waist band) and OWB (outside).
    Blade Tech holsters, knives and tactical gear for military, law enforcement, shooting competition and hunting. made one of mine and UBG Holsters made my other

    I'm relatively new also, lots of great!! people here.

    Welcome from Kansas! I carry a GLOCK 19 in a Crossbreed Supertuck with a Crossbreed belt, I imagine a smiliar set up would work for your XDM.
