Carry Holster for 1911

[Bscman]

Just thought I'd throw this out before the thread dies.

I have a BlackHawk! Serpa I use for the range and open carry.

Usually a Don Hume OWB for hiking around in a sweatshirt or light jacket, or in areas I don't expect to come across many people...but still want concealment. Inexpensive and quite comfortable--but my carry 1911's are 3.5" and 4".

Supertuck for when you need a GOOD, comfortable holster that will fully conceal.
Even my side 229 (which is wider than a 1911!) will disappear with a supertuck. Definitely worth the money.

fremont the versamax is an awesome holster.  Thought I would let you guys know that Blackhawk is clearing out some holsters.

I use a Galco Royal Guard Inside The Pant Holster - Natural Leather and carry a full size .45 ACP on my strong side and just back from the hip. I wont carry in the small of my back. I used to until I was talking to a few friends that are cops and learned that most departments forbid carrying in the small of the back. Their reasoning was sound. If you get into a tussle with someone, you can land on your back and can result in serious back injury. If someone approaches from the rear, they have better access to your gun than you do and it is harder to retain your own gun. It is also harder to draw and re-holster when it is in the small of the back and takes more time to get the gun into action. You also have the issue of the gun coming across your own body and in a stressful situation could risk an early discharge and shoot yourself.

beltman in shark.

Not my pistol... but my setup before it was shipped to me, got the keychain for a project that never happened.

Came to something like $270. comfy, the belt has some kind of insert in it that makes it feel less like a rope around the waist. And sharkskin, can't go wrong with sharkskin
