It’ll work, depending on your weapon.
Beretta 92FS, no.
Kahr CW45, yes.

I am going to try that. What clips do you use? Just the standard ones?

Before Springfield came out with the XD line
they made something called the Champion which
is what I have, smaller than a full 1911 but
not as small as some. I didn’t like my little
finger not having anything to grip on some of
the others.
I used to carry all HydroShok but my friend the
chief of police in a major city told me to
carry ball for the last half of the mag, by
then the perp will be behind cover and ball will
punch through.

I carry a Sig P220 in a Jackass shoulder rig. Love it. Most comfortable rig I’ve tried, and I’ve tried a lot. When I can’t carry that, I carry my Kimber RCP in a small-of-the-back IWB holster. When I can’t carry that, I carry that RCP in a leather pouch (or small satchel) made by Saddleback Leather company. The Saddleback pouch also clips nicely onto the outside of my briefcase.

There just is no one best carry option. It depends on too many things... What you’re wearing that day, what the weather is like, where you plan to go, what you plan to do... There’s no real alternative than just getting lots of different products, and switch out as needed day to day. Not only different holsters, but different guns.

Yep. Standard. I have 2. One for my Beretta, and one for my Springfield XDM 45.

The full-size Kimber 5” (have 3 models) is what I prefer; too large for some, but I can conceal it very nicely. Dan Wesson Co makes a very, very nice piece, too.

My first 1911 was a Kimber. It just made it hard to purchase anything else. I would never have spent the money on the Dan Wesson, but it was a gift (like it better, but not that much better).

Too bad they all were lost in that boating accident.

“...that boating accident.”

I remember when I capsized too, last summer, with that 2-ton Cannon Safe and all my firearms/ammo aboard; now “sleeping with the fishes”.

LOL!
