It is a PITA, but I've tried other models and I always gravitate back to my Galcos. Nowadays I'm making sure they make a Vhawk for a pistol while I'm researching. I couldn't get used to the Royal Guard style - they're a little too floppy for me.stash wrote:Thanks for the info Taypo. If I had remembered how tight Galco's were I would not have bought it.

Re: Galco Royal Guard for Govt. 1911
My Galcos have all been super tight out of the box, too.
Usually takes me an hour or so of pushing/pulling/twisting to get my guns in. I've found that actually putting it on works better, rather than trying to do it by hand.
Once I've got a little wiggle room, I wrap the gun in a Ziploc and leave it for a couple hours.
After that, ill do a few dozen presentations, while still in the ziplock. Typically that does the trick, but its still gonna be tighter than normal for a while. I've got a Vhawk for my 3" that's just now gotten to the sweet spot after probably 500 draws and reholsters.
