Im kind of new to this so please bare with me.. I purchased this gun a little over a year ago and to be honest im not really sure what I have… i search the serial number but I kind of get mixed reviews… the serial number underneath the gun in front of the trigger guard/ on the side of the slide reads as follows BF390459 … i believe what I have is the xdm elite subcompact 45 acp… the problem is I’ve never been able to locate a holster that says is fit for the particular firearm… can someone please tell me what other make and models I can search that will also be a perfect fit for my gun… thanks in advance

What's the best concealed carry holster? We cover what makes a great holster and choose our favs for IWB, OWB, ankle, & shoulder holsters.

Decide the type of holster you want, concealed carry, open carry, duty carry, IWB, OWB, ankle, shoulder, kydex, leather, hybrid, etc. There are hundreds of holster makers and everyone has their favorite. If your first one doesn't work out, try another. My personal favorite for general use IWB and OWB is roundedgear.com.


Thank you for your indulgence,

In some cases, specifically those based on the model 1911 Colt automatic (we just refer to them as "1911's") Things aren't sold for a specific model because most of the 1911 accessories will fit them all. For example I could probably purchase a holster for a Kimber 1911 and have it fit my Springfield 1911 perfectly.

Take a close-up photo of your gun and I suspect someone (or some-many!) around her can identify it for you.

Welcome to the forum and welcome to the world of shooting.

Welcome to the world of insanity! Woops, I meant firearms!!! It won't take long to become a part of the miscreants around here, as this bunch of derelicts can total a bunch of years of experience and we enjoy helping others spend money! Cheers Amigo!
