I, too, agree with ContinentalOp. However, that is based on my use of a 1911, a fairly slim pistol, in a Milt Sparks Summer Special, perhaps the best IWB made (designed by Bruce Nelson). Nowadays, I far more often carry an improved Model 56 (2" Model 15) in a belt holster, an O'Rourke pancake. A belt holster (OWB) generally does not require changing belt sizes. An IWB usually requires changing belt size AND pants size.
Either one can often work, and what is best differs from person to person.
