Looking for a good cross draw holder, kydex preferable. It's getting too painful to carry strong side with hip arthritis. Appendix is not considered. Anything good out there? Glock 43x.

A-Holster pocket holster

That should fit in your left front pocket .

Any holster that uses two attachment points like KT Mech Company Carry should work IWB by hooking the back hook only.

I don't know about arthritis in your hips, but two older guys I knew used to know (RiP) had both broken their backs when they were younger and swore by suspenders when their backs were hurting.  Might be worth a shot to help get the weight off your hips.  I know some people here use the kind that go under your shirt so they're not visible.

That might be a good idea, I also suffer from noassatall. Doesn't take much walking for the hip to start screaming, the gun seems to make it worse. Worth a shot, pun intended.

43x seems to big to pocket carry for me at least.

I would think any holster with adjustable cant could be adjusted to a "negative" cant and work on the left hip crossdraw.  Image for an example.



I googled "G43x kydex crossdraw holster" and got many options.
