What what? That's crazy fast! I'm on a similar timeline as you, so hopefully mine won't be too far behind. But, there's no guarantees there obviously.. :grumble

Some of us just have - ahem "questional backgrounds". Being a deprogrammed ex-CIA wetworks operative didn't help me at all...

Thanks for welcoming me in, I will update when I get the plastic in hand. I need to get a new concealed holster ASAP for my Springfield XD40 sub-comp. To many choices! Will also be going down in a few weeks for a Ruger LCP. Who say's guys don't like shopping :drool:

That is crazy fast! I sent mine in on 7/19, and my BG check was only completed 1 day before yours.

As for holsters, I suggest looking at the Crossbreed Supertuck. I got mine last week and love it. I dont really have any basis for comparison, since it was really my first holster, but I wore it around the house last night with a 1911 in it, and it was very comfortable. The Comb-tac M Tac holster is of the same style, and from what I understand, they ship out much faster. It took over 2 weeks to get my crossbreed, since each one is made as ordered. Apparently, the Comp-tacs are stocked and ship out within a couple of days, from what I have read.

I love my Kholster so far. Been wearing it most days around the house. Not as pretty as some others, but seems like a solid holster and for about half the price of similar ones. Retention is very good on my gun too (Taurus PT111).

Keep checking your mail as some people on here have gotten their plastic in the mail before the website showed "mailed".
