Default How to slick/stretch leather holster?

Hi, not sure if this has been covered before but a search hasn't turned up anything real helpful so....

I've got a stock S&W 1911 that I love and use regularly for gun games. ( I.E. informal plate & pin shoots, PPC, etc) When playing, I use a Safariland duty style holster designated for "45 auto". This holster fits my needs well but I feel it grips my 1911 just a tad snug for my (non-serious) purposes. So, does anybody have any trick to stretch (or slick the interior) of a leather holster so the gun pulls with a little less effort?
All advice appreciated!
