Re: Carrying a 5" 1911 is hard
Not trying to hijack but I'm looking at ordering a gunbelt and a wright holster to carry my 4.5 xdm 40 small of back, looking at some of the gunbelts they can be bought with stiffeners inside. With a holster that holds that much of the gun above the belt, especially with the xdm that will have 16 rounds of 180gr, would the stiffener be a good thing or unnecessary? On the 1911's get a decent one, I have a 5" rock island and it's ok but very rough overall, trigger sucks and slide isn't dovetailed so stuck with g.i. sights until I can find a smith around that can cut the slide. None of the ones I have talked to near me want to touch it.
