How are you carrying full-size .45s?

[IRON EAGLE]

I have a full-size .45 I’ve been carrying in a Holster King holster. I need something more comfortable and controllable for IWB carry. I’ve heard good things about Crossbreed, I mainly want to know the difference between single belt loop and double belt loop holsters. Are the leather/kydex combination holsters that much bulkier than the others?

Garret industries silent thunder for me…beats the old prison wallet

Mitch Rosen OWB for me. Two belt loops and a good belt make all the difference in the world.

IWB. N82 holster. Single belt clip, which was my main requirement. I like the single clip about 256% more than any double-secured design.

I went through the usual Crossbreed-Aliengear designs before settling on the N82. Shoulda saved my money and gone straight to the Nate.

Super Tuck holster Andy’s leather belt inside the waistband never a problem

Those ancient guns are too heavy:

I’ve got a S&W 3” 686+ I’d love to carry but the damn thing is a friggin brick. It’s like 2.5 lbs. which at this stage of my game is a non starter as far as a carry gun goes. Any decent holster will suffice for a 1911 (or any heavy piece) as long as you don’t cheap out!

In a range bag.

If i was, it'd be Guatemalen carry. Similar to Mexican carry but with the saftey off and appendix in elastic waistband of sweatpants.

OWB, Galco C.O.P. paddle or Fobus roto-paddle.

The same Galco Miami Classic I wore in the 80’s.

I rarely rock that anymore. I got a IWB Milt Sparks executive carry for my compact 1911.

It's impossible to find shoulder holsters that fit a CZ97B.

Love mine.

I bought one from Falco (not Galco) that looked just like that and it was way too big - too much loose play. It was a nightmare trying to return it to Slovakia.

if you call that a full size

 

[Kicker96FS]

I use a Cross breed Inside at 4 o'clock S&W scandium frame 1911, it's lighter that my Sig .40 (there, I said it, a .40)
Belt I got from Duluth Trading and it is thick!

Full size ? Yea, how's that muzzle tip feel driving into your groin trying to bend over or sit ?

Worth the trade off.

I EDC'd a G21 in a Milt Sparks Summer Special for many years.

Just like the Filipino Sparrow Hitman Teddy Medina:

Slide length is about the same and I can do this with a AIWB G17 with no discomfort.
