good 1911 holster reccomendations?

[JR Hartman]

full size single stack 1911 coming, need holster for IDPA.

Doesn't need to be super competition oriented, don't want a strap over the hammer, or a retention button.

I would like quality, but not over the top price wize.

leather would be nice, but a combo of kydex and leather is great too.

I'd like to be able to take it off the belt without taking the belt off.

thanx!!

My wife and I plus a couple guys from work are doing our Black Badge course next month and I was thinking about trying the cheap Blackhawk holster. Only $22 to try it out. I don't know if it is any good though. I think I might watch this to see if there are better recomendations from others with some experience.

Purchased an Uncle Mike's for my 45 1911 recently and I am very happy with it. Brownells out of the US.

Bladetech or Comptac. Safariland 6378 holsters are great if you can find one...

I just picked up this one for 35$ + 10$ shiping from Brownells. http://www.brownells.com/shooting-a...ters/cqc-carbon-fiber-holsters-prod26375.aspx

So far so good... Even fits my SIG 1911...

Garret industries made an excellent holster for my 1911.

"...don't want a strap over the hammer or a retention button..." You'd best read the IDPA holster rules first.

I have never seen a strap on anyones pistol at an event.

As for retention, I should have been more clear. I mean a button like on a Blackhawk Serpa.

G-Code holsters, really like mine, couple of videos on YouTube, lot of options, very flexible kit.

I second this... I love me g-code holster. Awesome service from them and it functions flawlessly.

I just ordered a cheap Blackhawk from SFRC. For only $22, I figure it's worth a try.
