Springfield XD/XD-M Elite 4.5" .45acp OSP OWB Covert Kydex Holster
This is by far the best designed, best fitting (gun and me), most stable and comfortable holster I have ever had.
The construction is also far and away the best of any kydex holster I have or have seen. I know, all holsters are supposed to provide a custom fit for the firearm you have. But this C&G holster goes beyond any others I have.
If you get one, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about.
Another critical fact for me, was that I had been looking for a holster for my XDm for quite some time. Every manufacturer left important questions unanswered and the holsters didn't have the construction of my C&G. My XD has suppressor sights. It was very difficult to tell by looking at some of the offerings out there, if they accommodated tall sights. And again, the web sites weren't clear when trying to order.
C&G left no doubt about what I was ordering. And if you've been to their website, you can see a lot about the construction. The actual holster is perhaps even better than it appears on the site.
I only have one concern with my holster. It has tiny nodules inside the holster. I believe these might be designed to separate the gun from 100% contact with the kydex. I really don't know.
Probably the biggest drawback to kydex holsters is the affect they can have on the gun's finish. My gun has four (two per side) wear marks on the slide, that I don't remember ever being there. Having recently gotten my holster, I haven't carried it any appreciable time, only around the house and yard for a couple of days. The gun has spent most of its time in a bed/mattress holster or the gun cabinet when I'm away from the house. The bed holster doesn't appear to correspond to the slide marks. The marks do correspond to nodules inside the holster.
I'm thinking that I will simply polish off those nodules, one at a time, and see if the wear ceases or if other wear begins due to more contact. I'm not super concerned either way. It is a kydex holster and my XD is not exactly a collector piece. It's a tool. A little burnishing is not a big deal.
Having said all that, despite the wear question, I'm absolutely getting another one for my Hellcat, which is my EDC.

Great Holster fits snugly and is well balanced when the XD Elite is inserted. No obstructions when removing the gun, comes out quickly. The tightness is adjustable but I found that the original setting was right on the money. I mistakenly ordered an inside the waist holster but the crew cheerfully helped me replace it with the correct version. A good company to do business with,

Perfect fit for my Springfield XD/XD-M Elite 4.5" OSP
OWB Covert Kydex Holster - Custom
VERY FAST DELIVERY AND GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!
M
I love it! It arrived in time as well!
P
Ride height seems to be all up which is ok for concealed carry. On the other hand even on the lowest ride height it is not really smooth and easy to re holster the firearm for range or hunting carry seems like every other kydex holster on the market. It is well made and the organization behind it seems legit and a good group.
Thank you for your feedback. Our holster molds are designed by engineers with the assistance of Law Enforcement and Military weapons experts to ensure that features are optimal for safety and proper holstering of the firearm. The ride height is designed to support a proper drawl. There is an adjustable retention screw (if you feel that is too snug or loose), so you can adjust the fit to your liking. We also suggest you use a plastic holster lubricant for additional smoothness and protection. We appreciate your kindness and support!

Appendix carry my full size XDM elite, no problem! Tight against my body with barely any printing at all. I'll by another for the light.
The clip could be heavier, but you can't have it all at this price.
E
I have a few C&G holsters for my compact guns but this one for my full size 9mm holds the gun perfect against by body.
K
Does what its supposed to do, wish companies would line with thin leather tho, kydex likes to rub bluing, not just theirs but most ive tried. This one does what they claim and fits well.
A
Fits the pistol with Vortex Venom perfectly
M
I’m extremely happy with the OWB Covert. Fits my XDM Elite 10mm perfectly, and arrived quickly. I’ll be buying the chest holster next.
N
This holster has lived up to and beyond my expectations for my XDM Elite 10mm. Due to the size and weight of my 10mm I figured this holster would let me down as many have in the past. On the contrary, this thing is a tank! Keeps taking a beating while practicing and no hiccups in function or speed drawing. The holster weight is perfect for this big ass pistol. It makes you remember you are wearing your sidearm without feeling the weight of it all day. I recommend this holster to anyone looking for high quality kydex at an affordable price point. Btw, one of the only holsters around for the 4.5 XDM Elite 10mm with light. Thanks for the awesome product!
L
Custom holster for my Springfield XDM Elite is a great fitting and quality product! Very few options on the market for this pistol and this one easily met my expectations! Awesome!
J
This holster greatly exceeded may expectations. I was just looking for a holster to fit my firearm, but found one of the most comfortable holsters I've ever worn.

Excellent product

Will give more feed back once i have use it in the field.
P
Everything about this holster is good news. Great size, perfect fit and great seating for my Springfield XD-M 10MM. I couldn't ask for a better draw.
R
Fantastic holster. For my torso, it works awesome. I should have waited, as I added a TR-1 Light to the weapon. I need to look into another holster.
K
Holster fits perfect with red dot sight. Snug fit makes it feel secure and safe. I like that it doesn’t need a release button. Will purchase more holsters from C&G.
S
Once a C&G came thru!!! Great quality holster. Pistol fits fantastic. Solid click when holstering lets u know your weapon is secure. Nice thick kydex Just a great all around holster. Guys you need to think about building a chest rig. I’m sure it would be outstanding
M
Works well as conceal carry. Comfortable.
S
Great Holster
T
Great holster. Only wish with the quick ship you could change the size of belt loops.
R
Perfect fit , very comfortable, easy to adjust. Will purchase another one very soon for my other pistols.
R
Great fit and very comfortable to be carrying a larger frame pistol like the XDM Elite. Wears well, hugs the body but not to the point it impedes a draw. And, did I say comfortable? A definite win...
W
Fits my XD-M elite w/Hex optic perfectly. Really like the adjustability to put a cant to the holster. Good stuff.
A
