Hopefully, when I get my belt and holster, I'll even be able to carry my 1911 comfortably.I might just get a pocket holster for my Taurus.
I was carrying it a 3 o'clock which is comfortable while driving, maybe just the way movie seats are made.
You can carry the 1911 comfortably & cover it easily. The following 2 pics are of my Kimber Pro IWB covered w/ a polo shirt.
These are of a full size SA 1911A1 in a Galco Concealable. I carry this & have no problem sitting at the hospital or desk for 2-3 hrs. There is no reason to be uncomfortable while carying. Cover w/ a loose vest, jacket, or over shirt. My lightest vest is a Heavy cotton camo SHIRT that I took the sleeves out at the shoulder seems. Actually Mom did the work
She made the vest in the pic too.

06nop,
Your Taurus 85 should never be uncomfortable w/ a good belt & quality holster.
The 85 is my Sunday carry & since tonight is Mid week worship I already have it on. Galco highride Concealable w/ a Mitch Rosen gun belt.
I sit for long periods of time at hospital & a desk. Even w/ my 5" Springer sitting is not a poking, gouging, bad experience. Many of us have full size guns as our primary carry choice.
txi suggested a good belt. There are others & I did not buy my Rosen new. You can buy a QUALITY belt at affordable price.
Hope the C-Tac works for you. It did not for me but I was wearing a much bigger gun than the T-85. If it does not work, it is not because of poor quality just different body build & prefference.
