Not a 1911..But have a Springfield XD .45 ( 5" / tactical) Big gun to carry all day, especially compared to my Kahr CW40.
I have afew balistic holsters for the Big Daddy XD, but they are alittle flimsy.
Even with all the sweating, I finally decided to buy a good, solid, quality leather holster, to carry him around in.
Monday I rode down to Cabela's and finally picked up the Galco Sil 446 holster. ( $64.95 ) Fits tha' 1911 & Springfields XDs.
I really like this holster. It does print more than my CW40 under my T-shirts ... but... it carries very well and feels good.
Good luck in your selection !
