I know Safariland makes duty-type holsters that will fit a 1911/MR07, with different models for light mounted or not.

How about a IWB for a 1911 (Springfield Loaded in my case) with a Surefire MR07? (With or without light; I'm not too picky) I thought Raven made one, but nothing relevant comes up on the sales site. Anyone else I should check?

Raven is one of the best ways to go for Kydex.

Greg Kramer will make you one for use without the light mounted.

I have a Springfield MC Operator that I use a Kramer #3 IWB and a Kramer Vertical Scabbard with and couldn't be happier.

RCS will make you one, for sure. They may need someone to loan them a MR07 to make it with, though.

The other issue is, it's going to be pretty darn bulky and heavy to CCW a 1911 with MR07 and X300.

Assuming you are going to go ahead with this, I add the following.

Having used a MR07, I find it an imperfect solution. I prefer an integral railed receiver (which I also have) or adding a Dawson rail.

The RCS for an integral railed 1911 will also fit a Dawson railed 1911 and also a non-railed 1911, although the retention for the latter two is not quite as secure, it's still pretty good and I have had no issues with my RCS for railed 1911.

However, I doubt that a RCS for a 1911 w/MR07 will retain an integral railed 1911, a Dawson railed 1911, or a non-railed 1911. The MR07 is just that much bulkier and the fit of the RCS products is very exact.

I'm basing this off my experience using my 6280s for non railed 1911, integral railed 1911 with X200/X300, and MR07 railed 1911 with X200/X300.

Hope that helps.

Try Tucker Gun Leather: they make a variety of holsters, all leather, all Kydex, and some clever mixed Kydex-leather holsters, and they offer the option to fit them to railed 1911's. Outstanding holsters, great folks, great service!
