I tried many different holsters for my Springfield XD, 9mm with a Solofish light/laser attached. I never found one that fit the weapon properly or I was able to draw it smoothly from until I purchased the Craft. I just recieved it and am very impressed. I think it will work just fine. Thank you Craft Holsters.

Absolutely gorgeous. Not only tactical but, aesthetically wonderful. This shoulder holster is a wonder. It almost fit right off. But with a bit of adjustment, now it really is working well. This company obviously makes a HIGH QUALITY product. I’m thinking I may get more. I am just thrown back by how much I love this holster.

I used the break-in kit, and my gun still will not fit so that the buckle will snap. It doesn't conform to your body and leaves a very visible lump under shirt. I am unhappy and will put this in the pile of unusable holsters.
