Concealed Pants Holster What's the best way to conceal my 1911(full size) for CCW?
Hey Folks,
What's the best way to conceal a 1911? I bought my Rock Island 1911 not to long ago before getting my CCW. Since then I got a Blackhawk CQC Serpa Holster (which I love dearly..) but can't conceal. What are some options of carry? I'm a bigger guy (250ish) and carrying inside my pant on side is painful. I'm thinking about going for the S.O.B. option but I hear lots of people talking down on that method. Also take in consideration my gun is a full size 1911. Again, any information would be great and as always thanks for your time!

SOB is not a very good option
There are many people who have suffered permanent back injury when they fell and the but of the gun impacted directly on the spine
It also limits access to the gun
Shoulder holsters are neat for the movies but keep in mind
You are sweeping every one behind you with the muzzle every time you walk through a room
The 1911 is very easy to conceal with a simple IWB rig worn at 4 O'Clock position

Pants Holster Fits Does anyone make a custom holster for a S&W 6906?
I have a generic one-size-fits-many inside-the-pants holster for my S&W 6906 but it is not a very secure fit. Anyone know of an off-the-shelf holster made specifically for this gun?

What holster fits my firearm?
Ok so I have a taurus millennium pt145 pro.
I have a holster that's crap. Im looking for a nylon or leather small of the back holster that's inside pants with a clip or a belt slide holster or a belt side style but with the belt clip for right hand draw. This firearm will become my new ccw cary to replace my .38 s&w 5 shot.
So any help with this I have looked online and have had little luck. So any help thank u.
Also on a side not looking for tru glow sights for my pt145 pro or any good sight for it
First of all, let me suggest you reconsider your small-of-the-back holster idea.
I knew two different guys who got hurt bad enough to need back surgery from falling and landing on their holstered handguns while using S.O.B. holsters.
Besides, with an S.O.B. holster, you must take great care not to cause a loud "THUNK!" when you sit in a hard backed chair of bench. Believe me there is nothing like that sound to bring silence to a noisy fast food joint. Anothere drawback to S.O.B. holsters is the fact that during your draw and presentation, you will sweep your pistol's muzzle across your body, lots of chances for you to shoot yourself if you do not exercise extreme caution.
With that aside, let me suggest you contact Rob Leahy at Simply Rugged Holsters (www.simplyrugged.com ). Rob's work is extraordinary and he makes some great concealment holsters. If you don't see what you want in his on-line catalog, I'm sure he can make any sort of holster you want. The quality is unbelievable and the cost is pretty darned modest.
If you call Rob, tell him I sent you.
