Hello fellow shooters, I'm going to taking the CDPA qualifying course within the next month or so (when instructor is available) and was wondering what type of holster I will require to fit my 1911 SS into.
Also where to buy one??what's a good brand.
I was on the IDPA website and for some reason couldn't download the pdf file...dialup!!!!
I know the CDPA differs a little with the lenght of barrels used etc....but if someone could send me the new rulebook it would be much appreciated.Thanks....Troy
Don't get hung up on barrel length, I have a copy of the new rule book. If you want to get one call down to Berryville, AR. 870-545-3886, or fax 870-545-3894. Also info@idpa.com . Criteria of an IDPA approved holster, a) must be designed for concealed carry and suitable for all day continuous wear. b) Must be worn on a standard belt of no more than 1 3/4" width that must pass through the belt loops on the shooter's pants. c) Must fully cover the trigger of the firearm. d) Must carry the firearm in a neutral (vertical) or muzzle rear cant, but have no adjustable cant backpieces. Holster cant that is adjustable by removing bolts and repositioning the backpiece is allowed. Exception: IWB style holsters do not have to meet this particular criterion. e) Must hold the firearm with enough tension to allow the wearer to complete normal daily tasks without fear of losing the weapon. f) Can have no offset and/or belts slots. The holster may not offset away from the belt and/or body. No gap is permitted in the following areas: 1. From the body to the inside of the belt. 2. From the outside of the belt to the inside of the bakpiece and/or backside of the holster. 3. From the outside of the backpiece to the inside of the holster.
g) Must be constructed of normal thickness common holster making materials (leather, kydex, plastic, nylon, etc.). h) May not position the firearm where the brech face (autos) or rear of the cylinder (revolvers) is below the center of the belt. NO drop loops are permitted. Holsters for females may position the breech face of a pistol or rear of the cylinder of a revolver up th 1 1/2 " below the center of the belt. Note: IWB style holsters are exempt from this criterion. I Must hold the firearm positioned on the body so an object of 3/4" width cannot pass between the shooter's body and the inside of the firearm when the shooter is standing straight and upright. j) Must be positioned on the belt in a location that will keep the center of the trigger pad behind the centerline of the body. From page 32 and 33.
