XD Duty Holster

I've taken a second job as a bodyguard. This company is requiring me to carry a compact weapon in a level 2 or 3 holster. I currently own a Springfield XD sub compact 40. Does anyone have any idea who makes a decent level 2 holster? I don't want to spend the extra cash to purchase a new weapon, but Galls and Streichers only sell compact holsters for Glocks. Any advice would really help.

Ok... you gotta admit that a sub compact would look a little funny in a thigh rig...

Safariland 6280, add the sentry lock

They don't make it for the compact but for the 4". It will fit but be long.

I"ve got a blackhawk! SERPA lvl 2 that I use for around the house carry. I like it a lot. it came with both belt loops and paddle.

I just went to the website to see if it mentioned anything that excluded a SC (subcompact)

I didn't see anything mentioned to exclude it.
