I picked up one for the wife's Kahr LC9 and it works perfectly for her. I decided to get one for my Beretta PX4 Storm sub compact.

First thing I noticed was the pistol sits at an angle rendering the trigger guard useless. The Kahr is flat but the Beretta has a beveled slide. I glued some extra plastic on the main part which helped set it straighter.

Once I found a comfortable position (about 5 o'clock) it works pretty well. The thing is so diminutive it is invisible. Even with just a t shirt. But you can feel the gun against your skin. Not sure how that will work with the Vette seats.

It draws nicely but you can't reholster - not really an issue outside of training. I like the cross breed super tuck better in terms of comfort but it is huge.

I'm only thinking of using it for deep cover. Normally I use a custom Kramer OWB on my hip covered with a sport coat.

Anybody use one? I'll post a pic shortly.

I made the mistake of buying one for my full size 1911.
Tried it once, in the drawer it went.

I'm thinking it may work better for compacts. They come in different lengths. Mine is for a 3" barrel.

I also have a Galco Fletch that is pretty good but has that mass produced fit. Although I can use it for my full size 96 or the PX 4 - they are virtually the same size except for barrel length.

i just got a full size PX4 in 40 cal, and on a whim tried to see if it fit in my UM-84 universal fit holster for my 92F. nope. with the rail lugs on the underside, the muzzle is too fat to fit in the holster. i'll find one that fits the PX4 someday.
