does anyone make a pocket holster for a SA XD 9SC?

I am looking for a "wallet" style pocket holster for my XD. Are there any holster makers on the forum that would make me one? A company called pocketholsters makes the style I want but not for my XD. I feel it could be cheaper to buy another holster than to buy another gun. Dont get me wrong, I'd love to buy another gun, but funds are kinda tight. Thanks,
Mike

Are you sure that you want a 'wallet style' holster for an XD?
You must have big pockets.
That would be about the same size as a Glock-26? Ouch!

I realize it will be a little large but I really only need it on rare occasions when my UBG canute is not appropriate. They actually do make one of these for a G-26/27 but not the XD SC. Go figure.

I can build you a wallet holster for your XD Compact. My holster is actually a combination wallet/front pocket holster. The back wallet panal is attached with chicago screws or snaps (customer option)
The holster would be very similar to the one shown in the photo, only larger.
E-mail me if I can help.

Desantis makes the Nemesis for XD SC.
That's the only pocket holster I know of advertised for it.
And there's a pretty good reason for that, IMNSHO.

DeSantis Holsters

I use the Nemesis for pocket carry of my XD9sc all the time during the summer wearing just a pair of Walmart shorts and a T-shirt. It works great. Depending on the shorts, it's going to bulge but you can't tell it's a gun and no one has ever given it a second look. (The really do not pay attention to stuff like that)

I do find the XD9sc to be a bit too large to pocket carry wearing jeans (Carhart's). It fits in the pocket ok but the draw is darn near impossible. YMMV with that. But baggy shorts with a drawstring waist band, it's great. And pleated Khaki's or Chino's isn't bad either.

The new Superfly is like the Nemesis except it has a removable square flap to further disguise the gun and make it look like a wallet in your pants. I didn't find that to be a problem with the Nemesis. (Again, the just do not pay attention to such things) Also the Superfly is supposed to have a tackier substance on the outside which makes it grip the inside of your pants pocket keeping it in place. Once again, I have had no problems with my Nemesis in that regard either since it has rubbery nubs all over the outer fabric as well.

DeSantis also has a brand new pocket holster designed specifically to be carried in the cargo pocket of standard BDU type trousers. It has a built in spare mag pouch and fits the full width of the cargo pocket keeping in place without shifting positions. You have to measure the width of your cargo pockets because they say the holster can shift positions if carried in over sized pockets. However, it appears to only be available for "mouseguns" like the Keltec P3AT and Ruger LCP.

Both, Nemesis & Superfly are made for the XD9sc.

I'm 6'2", 210 lbs.
My XD SC 9 is just tooooo big for any kind of pocket carry.
Obviously, YMMV.

When I must do it, I switch to a Kahr PM9.

sorry, just bustin your chops cupcake.


Seriously, I can pocket carry an XDsc no prob with certain trousers. And just as easy to draw as a J frame.

Of course there is a bulge, but as you know... the do not, can not, will not notice it. And the bulge does not look like a gun shape, so what's the prob?
