try one on

the only way to know...i tried a few cheap nylon varieties and couldnt get the angle of the 1911 to fit right...

the ugly ole Crossbreed super tuck is adjustable and i can manage to contour around my side with the grip...took a good 40 plus hrs of wear to really get the leather to conform to me...

My main rub with IWB is the traditional 4:00 - 5:00 position for RH presentation. I prefer to carry in the 9:00 - 3:00 range to maximize my retention odds (based on my personal skill...not true for everybody). I specifically like to carry 2:30 with a Fobus paddle holster. They seem to keep the weapon fairly snug to the body (not the Roto version...they stick out about 1/2” more). I can also press the inside of my right forearm against the gun if I'm having to move through a crowded area.
