    Your favorite Commander or smaller 1911 concealment holster?

    So... I am waiting on a new RH, Black, Horsehide, Offset Clip, Rough-Out w/ slide/ sweat guard holster from Ray at: http://www.lobogunleather.com/9_offset_belt_clip_model It'll be 6 - 8 weeks I've been told. He does excellent work and I am looking forward to it.. I will be glad to post pics...

    Looks and sounds good Sir.. Any chance you'd also do/ add a front sight channel/ track? 'Hate to scrape leather into the front sight during draw..

    May I see or have some pics emailed of the holster you mentioned here please? I carry a Kimber Pro CDP (Melted 4" 1911) and may be interested in one of yours with just a minor (Maybe 10*) forward cant and perhaps some sort of exotic skin? I also am an 07FFL holder and would appreciate a catalog...

    I would like to see the pics too.!!! BTW, I prefer a near straight draw although I use the Talon w/ a 1.5" clip on a 1.25" belt and actually do push the butt of my pistol slightly forward.. I also carry a Bob-tailed 4" 1911 which does conceal nicely anyway. ;)

    I have been fond of the comfort and reliability of the Alessi Talon and Talon + for IWB carry, and the Askin's Avenger typees for OWB. I do and have for many moons carry IWB.. -Eric!-

    My Kimber Pro CDP before and after her "Facelift"

    So.. I took a standard small hole SS Colt hammer and milled it out to 5/16" and then a carbide 6 flute countersink and chamfered it to the inside edges of the cocking serrations and bead blasted it w/ #80 glass. Then I honed the primary and secondary engagements matching it w/ an E.B. match...

    My Kimber Pro CDP before and after her "Facelift"

    Sorry, I didn't know anyone had responded here.. I've been workin' w/ and on firearms for 28+ years.. I like the looks of that rear sight too, but it makes me need to use a .200! tall front sight which is just TOO tall on a carry gun; I have actually cut down, refinished and replaced the rear w/...

    My Kimber Pro CDP before and after her "Facelift"

    Before (Although I had already done the SVI trigger sometime earlier; this is a 13-ish yo Seiries 1 Kimber) now...: I did the work, but it's not done.. The new sights are way too tall at .360 in the rear and .200 in the front.. The rear will be getting cut down and the Dawson Prec. RFO...
