    EDC a 1911

    Does anyone on here routinely carry a 1911? If so, what belt/holster setup do you use?

    When I was young and stupid, mine (5" Essex mixmaster) was an Uncle Mike's IWB. The suit jacket over it helped a lot...

    When I carry one of my 38 Super 1911's, it's usually in a Crossbreed Super tuck IWB. For OWB I use a T-Rex "Ragnarok".

    Bravo Concealment Scuba Webbing belt with a local guys Kydex OWB holster.
    Pistol is D.W. Valkyrie that I rebarreled to .38 Super.
    A true "Gun Guy" (or gal) should have familiarity and a modicum of proficiency with most all firearms platforms.

    EDC a 1911

    For IWB, I mostly use a CrossBreed SuperTuck. Occasionally, I’ll use a Milt Sparks VM2.

    For OWB, I use an R Grizzle GS2, or a Milt Sparks 55BN.

    I’ve worn Milt Sparks belts for many years, but I recently bought a Kore Essentials reinforced nylon belt, and like it much more than expected.

    If you like the wide-spread style of IWB, the Milt Sparks VM2 was always my favorite. I have a Milt Sparks belt that I have been wearing for a LONG time. It may have started shrinking since I retired.

    When I did (EDC a 1911) I used a Comp-Tac IWB, and a Blade-Tech OWB.

    I currently have two Milt 55BN’s, but I believe it’s my belt that is lacking. I prefer leather and have yet to find the medium between too soft and plyable and bending solid steel around my waist.
