I ordered a basic black Laredo Defender for a XD45 about mid Oct and received it today. 
Overall the quality thumbs up, I would put it on par with my Alessi CQCs
Time frame I put at about 12wks a little more then I figured but when doesnt this happen, Well atleast when I order stuff.
The only other down side that I could find was the leather tabs for the snaps are a little longer then I would have liked( They stick up above the top of the holster) but is a easy fix on this basic black holster. This is easily seen in the pics on the website if you look close which I did not no buddies fault but my own
As soon as I figure out which revolver I am going to buy next 3" SP or GP I will be on the phone with Kevin to order my next holster

Did you take any pictures yet? Is it very tight? Does it hold the gun close to your body?
I ordered the same holster for my Glock 23 on Dec 1st.

The pistol is a little tight IMHO about what I would expect from a new holster this is a highly subjective veiw point, Whats tight for one person is too tight for the next and vice versa. I do believe this holster will break in easily either from repeated drawing or by simply useing the plastic bag technique.I have been wearing it around the since receiving it and it seems to pull the pistol in tight and is stable during the draw stroke. No pics as yet will have to waite until the wife isnt busy with work besides she needs to do the uploading and the techy stuff. Thus far I am more then happy with the holster.

Very nice. Kevin makes a very nice holster.
I wish mine was here now, but I did not have this gun that I ordered this holster for until Nov 1st, and it took me a month to decide on how I wanted to carry it.

Yep seeing as its a XD45 and I am about 5'8" and 155 it disappears pretty good under just that underwear top. Kinda makes one wonder why some figure its to hard to hide a single stack 1911. I tend to think the belt and holster makes all the difference.

Thanks for the pics. I am waiting for that same holster for my G19 and SIG P220 Carry. I also ordered a IWB at the same time. Cindy gave me 10% discount for ordering multiple holsters. I didn't even ask for the discount! Time to buy more ammo! How easy is it to remove if need be? How difficult to get back on the belt?

Removal is simple unsnap and pull downward.
Easiest to put on if the belt is loosened first slide tabs under and over belt and snap, tighten belt. I find these a lot more convenient then a belt slide holster.

Rem700, Great looking gun and I like the snap solution on pancake holster. It should work real well for you.
