I ended up doing a combat cut at home on my horsehide supertuck.  The stiff leather was engaging the mag release on my M&P 40 just enough to release it unnoticed.  Scared the shit out of me when I drew while practicing and my mag dropped turning my pistol into a single shot.  Also unaltered the draw can be awkward as you can't good strong hand grip on the pistol.

i really like mine, but will still continue to experiment with other options.  the footprint of the holster is just enormous, which helps stability, but the clips can be downright inconvenient if they start rotating.  the retention is very confidence-inspiring.  



my biggest problem is that i prefer to carry at the deepest setting, and this makes it harder to get a secure grip at the outset of the draw.  the issue is that the stiff leather backing interferes with the thumb––you actually have to force your thumb down between the leather and the frame.  the combat cut helps this a lot, but doesn't eliminate it.



so while i'm quite satisfied all around, i will also be evaluating the raven and MTAC in the future.

I really love my regular cut Supertuck. I am glad I didn't go for the combat cut as my skin is very sensitive to rubbing. The supertuck is the only holster I use for my full size, service, and compact XD45's.
