Okay, so I have my first pistol and will be going to the range when weather permits, my question is what type of holster are people using for the range?

The pistol is a Norinco 1911A1 Government and it is an outdoor range.

Thanks, Hagar

No issues using holster at ranges I attend
Personal preference on style unless your going to be involved in a particular discipline
I am sure some ranges will have restrictions, seems further east you travel at least.....

Depends on your range rules. I use a holster at my range because I don't want to leave it unattended on the firing line while I change targets. I don't shoot IPSC/IDPA/CAS, but that's just me- what type of shooting is the OP planning to do? That will make a difference as what answers he gets.
I use an Uncle Mike's holster for my Shadow, with a couple of minor mods to make it fit better.
 
As I live in a community of 3500 our range is small and would usually have it to myself and as stevebc says I don't want to leave my pistol laying around. At this time I am not=in any competitive shooting, and just looking to punch paper and steel. I guess I would want something simple and comfortable.
 
Kydex open top thread on owb holster. Try solely Canadian, bladetech, atomic dog, grizzly outdoors, raven concealment, bravo concealment, comp tac to name a few.

You can holster your firearm at my range so long as it is not loaded and proven safe. I have the Blade tech OWB with DOH attachement. Sits lower and offset. I love it. I do not shoot competition.
 
If you aren't planning on super-serious competition and style is a concern, a 1911 and a leather holster go together like bread and butter. Not necessarily as practical as the Kydex ones, but sometimes style counts.
 
I use a reproduction US issue M1911 leather full flap. Purchased it from World War Supply. I love the feel of it slapping against my leg when I'm on the range.
maybe one day I'll be able to use it in the bush.
 
I prefer a leather shoulder holster myself for comfort reasons not because of some "Miami vice cool factor" like I read about here in a post. Nobody seems to be giving me any second look here in sask.
