*Do you have a 1911 in your current carry rotation? If so, what holster are you using at the moment?
-- No, first 1911 (carried) …. *(Beretta 92FS / SA XDS)*.
*I like a lot of forward rake (30 degrees) to hide the grip of a full size 1911 when IWB.
-- Currently using OWB for *above* pistols.
*When OWB, do you like a high ride, low ride, forward rake or straight drop, etc.?
-- Currently using high ride / 15* rake
*Where you intend to wear it along your belt can be a big determining factor in what holster works for you.
-- Currently OWB at 3:00-4:00

Sorry for just responding, I was in the shop putting some finish on some projects. I don't have a website yet, but I do have a Photobucket page with some of my work on it. Here's a link to the section with 1911 holsters on it.


The Beretta 92 has a grip about the same length as a 1911, so that's a good starting point. Do you like the way your current holster carries it, as far as rake, and ride height? BTW, congrats on your first 1911!!

As far as IWB goes, a couple months ago I took this photo to show the differences in a 15 degree (the dark brown) and a 25 degree (tan):




Glad you like it Sheepdog!

Hmmmm....for some reason the link to my Photobucket page isn't showing up. Here's goes another try.

It may not be going "hot," so you may have to copy and paste it.

To make it a link, put "http://" in front of it...like this:
