Re: Carrying a 5" 1911 is hard

I ordered a Cross Breed Holster and belt. Should get a chance to carry somewhere this week to try it out. I didn't realize the difference in a Gun belt and a belt until the gun belt I ordered arrived. That is a heckuva chunk of leather.

Carrying a 5" 1911 is hard

Since my plastic has arrived I have carried exactly twice.

#1- Glock 43 in my pocket. That's easy. Fishing and outdoorsy stuff etc and went into a store for worms.

#2- 5" 1911 in an owb holster. Drug the muzzle all over stuff today. Had it show so many times I finally just left it in the truck. On my way home I stopped and picked up a iwb holster made of kydex. It's uncomfortable but will work until I get hands on a good leather iwb holster.

Is anyone else packing a gov model? I don't care about carrying in general but prefer to carry while fishing and doing outdoorsy stuff. Pretty much have to suck it up until I can OC but until then it's a hide it challenge. Anyone know a good shop in DFW with a good selection of holsters?
