My bunch often uses various polymer/kydex paddle holsters with Glocks and XD pistols. They get wet, muddy, filled with leaves and briars, etc, so I mostly just pop the pistol out at the end of the day and blow off all the debris. Main outdoors/chore pistol for the last few years is this XDM 10mm. I stick a .40S&W CCI shotshell in my pocket on warm days. It won't cycle the action, but it works well on snakes. Hollowpoints work well too, but I waste too many.
