Has anyone tried this with a conceal size semi auto? 3" barrel etc..

A little big in my opinion for my XD9sc. Better suited for a larger frame. Like my Beretta 92fs

I normally keep a 4" Kimber in it. For this question I put a Beretta PX4 Subcompact in it. It fit just fine.

Yes, I have fired with the TLR-3 mounted. It stays on fine if you don't plan on shooting with it. I'm not sure where my problem occured, but I used the correct fitting key for my Springfield xD40 compact, and after about 50 rounds the claw part that doesn't move, where the screw goes thru to connect the opposite claw, broke off and the light fell off my gun while I was shooting. Save your money and get a TLR-1, which is all aluminum; that is what I'm doing, it's in the mail as we speak....

I just tried it for appendix carry. It works, however I find the best position for this particular holster is at my 4 o'clock (just past my right side pocket). So it could work for a short gun like a .380 but it could never work with my 1911.

It may fit the barrel but it moves around when secured. I wouldn't trust firing with it attached. Sorry to be the bearer of bade news.

No issues with recoil on the .40. Still looking for the right holster, not sure there are any "inexpensive" holsters that will do the job. Right now the best solution I have seen is Sneaky Pete.

I used this bipod on a barrel that measured .580" outside diameter, and it was a loose fit. But I wanted to pad the point of attachment anyway (to prevent scratches, etc), so I used some stick-on Velcro (furry side) in the inner surfaces of the bipod attachment area and it worked perfectly.

Sorry, my friend, this will not work for revolvers. This is mainly for large frame semi auto's only.

I was asked to respond... but I must admit I did not buy it for one with a 3/4" barrel. Mine is a mini-30 with a standard barrel. I responded though to ask whether you would even need it for the model with the 3/4" barrel?

A 8 3/8" barrel will stick out at the bottom. Other then that, I don't see why not. I carry a 357 mag with a 6" barrel. The barrel of my pistol goes to the end of the holster, is not exposed like a 8" barrel would be.

SNEAKY PETE does make a a holster for any 1911 with a 3" barrel. That said, I wouldn't want to carry any 1911 in this type of holster. The LCP is effectively concealed in plain sight by the Sneaky Pete Holster, however, the added bulk of the holster makes it relatively impractical. The size of a 1911 would only add to that issue at an exponential rate!For reference: http://www.amazon.com/Compact-1911-Sneaky-Pete-Holster/dp/B007576OQU

Yes but whats the barrel length? If you"re sub 6", you're good to go. One of the best features of this holster is they wear and adopt to a perfect fit for a specific fire arm. So, the take away is this, pick one gun and let the holster wear to the one shape. Revolvers will be a stiffer draw than a semi, but the holster will find its way that fit. Ill buy 2 more for specific arms. You wont be sorry, great holster for the $

I had a full length pic rail on my Mark II bull barrel, and while tight, it did fit, but I changed to a shorter rail and TruGlo small multi reticle red/green dot and it fits perfect. The holster is really tight, but oil and working the leather will make it more manageable and softer, easier to form around your weapon.

Yes, it was a touch snug on my Puma 1873/22, and too tight on my Ruger 357 Blackhawk 6.5" barrel. So I wrapped the Ruger in plastic, then some fabric padding, wetted the holster with water and alcohol(shoe stretch) and rammed it in. Upon removal it was nice and loose, and 6.5" barrel barely protrudes.PS-error on smaller belt size because you can stretch this leather nice and easy.

I think the picatinny rail and ghost ring shroud might make it too wide. Especially If you have optics on the rail. It seems to work best with a basic 500 or Rem 870.

Maybe, with modification it'll be tight and take some effort. I dont think its made for it but I use it with a Sig P250 and a TLR3. I had to snip a few stiches inside around the trigger guard area to allow it to sit deep enough to secure. Has since held up fine with moderate use.

Yes. I have tried other S&W;'s with 6" barrel and a Glock 23. Good protection for both. Straps fully adjustable. For the price you cannot go wrong.

Yes it will fit it. I own all 3 barrel lengths of this weapon including the Public Defender. The issue however is the chamber area is made to fit the 3.5" chambers so if yours is a 3" you will have to do as I did an put a "stop" in the holster to keep the weapon from traveling too far in making it hard to get out. It is a simple 5 cent fix.
