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..centexrandy wrote:Just wanted to say hello to everyone!! I haven't officially received my CHL yet but here is the chronology:

Re: New Member checking in!!
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

That is crazy fast! I sent mine in on 7/19, and my BG check was only completed 1 day before yours.centexrandy wrote:Just wanted to say hello to everyone!! I haven't officially received my CHL yet but here is the chronology:

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.

Re: New Member checking in!!
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).centexrandy wrote:Thanks for welcoming me in, I will update when I get the plastic in hand.
