K&D Thunderbird Defender

My new Defender for my M&P45c - arrived in the mail yesterday. This is my first custom leather holster.

As you can see, craftsmanship is excellent. I'm excited about breaking it in over the next few days.

Great looking rig. Enjoy.

I got the same holster and carry it everyday. I carry between 3:00 and 3:30 position and it disappears with no problem.

Very Nice!!!

There's nothing like a nice leather holster custom boned for your particular gun model.

Wear it in good health!

Excellent choice! My P7 rides in the same.

I put it on yesterday when I got home and wore it till I went to bed. Very comfortable at 4:00, and I know it will get more comfortable with time and break-in. It was worth the wait.

One thing that surprised me was the size. I was expecting it to be rather large (like the kholsters and crossbreeds), but it is MUCH smaller, which I like very much. I had some concerns about leather thickness, and the ability to wear it IWB, but those all went away yesterday. The weapon absolutely disappears under a normal untucked T shirt, as in NO printing whatsoever.

All in all, I'm very pleased with it and recommend it highly to anyone who is looking for a relatively inexpensive custom holster that can be worn IWB or OWB.
