Looks good to me. Little spensive but good leather is hard to find and it ain't cheap now. We have a custom maker out here neatr Cody. Heck even my wife bought a holster from him..but she knows the gal that does a lot of work for him.. Don't know if he has a web site but his name is Von Ringler. He ain't cheap either. A funny story. The gal that works for him walks to work..She went to work one day and had to go home for lunch. Walkin in the snow..her footprints going to work were covered by the prints of a grizz. Told my wife it scared her a bit..so now she carries an 1100 slug gun to work. Woulda scared the crap outta me..I would have driven to work.. I'm a chickin when it comes to grizz. Just checked..Ringler Custom Leather www.all one word after. Lot of grizz attacks out near Clark Wy.. Lot of wind too

The funny part about this is that the 1911 was designed to suit the military as a replacement for a revolver, fire by squeezing the trigger. So what did they do when they got the gun, directed that the official carry was hammer down, safety off, empty chamber and a loaded magazine in the gun. In the GI flap holster it is pretty useless in that condition, unless you call "time out" so you can engage.

I carry two striker guns, a KelTec 380 and a Para Ord LDA lite, the little 7 shot 3 inch CCW 45. The LDA has a hammer but it is a decoration.
