[QUOTE="HoLeChit, post: 2750321, member: 35036"] I am currently carrying an XDS 9mm in a looper leather Hybrid IWB holster. I wear a looper leather kydex belt. I have the clips adjusted to give me a slight amount of cant, and wear it at 4 o clock IWB. The concealability, fit, and comfort of my setup is amazing in any outfit. When Around people that know I carry on a daily basis they never know unless they are told or I am taking my shirt off. I can carry while driving several hours and never need to adjust or worry about discomfort, even in my little car with heavily bolstered seats. I do have a bit of a problem of being in the yellow constantly. The only time I OC is if I am out in the woods or away from society. I usually just use the kydex paddle holster that was supplied with the springfield essentials kit. I believe strongly that OC will most of the time out a bullseye on your back. As stated above, I keep it concealed. I have over 4 years of training and practical experience in weapons handling, retention, and use in all types of situations. I practice constantly to boot. I don't believe any amount of traing or practice will fully prepare you for any situation. Aside from training and experience, the streamlining of your gear and practices to reduce risks and remove variables when things go bad is the best anyone can do. Hence the discussion of weapons retention. Holding your arm against your weapon doesn't work very well if you have both hands full, wether it be groceries or with a hostile combatant. [/QUOTE]
