Got my Galco in today and it works great. Took the dogs for a walk and wore it with only a T-shirt. Sits at an angle and slants forward. Worn at the 4 o'clock, it is very comfortable. Thanks for the advice.

Roger that .300 Shooter. Me and the Wife went out shopping for clothes this weekend. Haley's Comet comes around more often than I go clothes shopping for myself, and I never try them on. I wore my .45 and tried on shirts in the dressing room and posed in all sorts of ways to see if I'd expose. I got a couple of those casting or fishing shirts (really comfortable, lightweight, and CCW friendly), and a couple of Hawaiian style shirts. I wear a large, but got the Large Tall or XL and this works pretty good. Wanted the Hawaiian shirt with the volcanos and the El Caminos with flames, but the Wife decided differently!

Thanks for all your help and inputs. I tried several of those mentioned, and decided on the 1911 45 AUTO GALCO N.S.A. PISTOL HOLSTER HORSEHIDE IWB. It feels the best next to OWB, but I am too self conscious of the barrel sticking out under my shirt when I raise my arms. It is study, and has great support. I have also realized how much difference a sturdy belt makes.

How the heck do ya'll carry ya'll's 1911's? I have a Springfield GI .45, and have tried with the holster it comes with, but it comes too close to my shirt tail than I am comfortable with. Too bulky for my belly band, and I think it's too long for an IWB. I just got a shoulder holster in the mail, so I will try it out. Let me know what ya'll have found to be the easiest. She cries everytime I leave without her. Thanks for your help.
