Cliff,

Here's a recent thread that might interest you.
https://sigforum.com/eve/forums...130027664#6130027664

I posted in it that Simply Rugged makes a great setup. https://www.simplyrugged.com/
Take the G40 Cuda holster and add the Chesty Puller chest suspension system

This gives you several options in addition to the chest carry. Smile

I think Kenai and Diamond D are the two best options.
One is leather and one is Kydex.
They each have the two different strap systems as well.

I have DD, but I could probably draw faster out of a Kenai.

I use a Hill People Gear rig. It just barely holds the long barrel of the G40 but I like the ability to carry a small first aid kit and supplies in the front pouches also.

Cliff, here's a decent picture of that Simply Rugged pancake holster with Chesty Puller straps.

I'm running the Diamond D setup - it works with a RDS mounted and has an extra mag pouch on the cross strap.

In fact, I have this holster system for that G40, a Sig P220 10mm, a S&W N frame and my S&W 460.

I've heard great things about the kydex Kenai rigs too.

Mind posting a photo of it with the G40 RMR in it?

one nice thing about the DD guides choice , is that the side strap has a fastex on it and a nylon strap. So it adjusts perfectly and can be tightened to clamp around you rather than just hang on you. Also can be put over any coat without having to adjust buckles. Very comfy and can be work several different ways if you choose.

I have one for my 3 inch 629 and it also works with my 2 3/4 inch M 69
