    Milt Sparks belt, Milt Sparks 1AT-RT or Summer Special.

    I personally find the 55BN to be more difficult to conceal than the 1AT-RT, as the 55BN rotates the grip enough to cause the rear sight to print (for me). The 1AT and 1AT-RT just needs a long enough garment to cover the muzzle of the holster (which isn't always easy). However, I do have a Del Fatti 55BN-type holster that conceals much better than the Milt Sparks version and doesn't need as long a cover garment as the 1AT/1AT-RT - I just don't have a belt and magazine carrier that matches it.

    My belts are both Galco 1.5". For holsters I've got a Galco Speed Paddle with matching mag pouch, and a Galco Concealable and matching mag pouch if worn unde a shirt. I don't prefer IWB with a full sized 1911 but I do have an Alessi for the occasional IWB 1911 carry.

    Unaffiliated plug for Hank's Belts.

    I don't EDC a 1911, but I have one of their offerings that has held it's shape and rigidity for a few years now. If I was going to put a 1911 on my belt, this is the belt I would use.

    Absolutely ! Get a good belt ! Quality leather such as a Hanks or a 5 stitch Wilderness like what I've used for 2 decades.
