Default shoulder holster questions

prefer the nylon type if the criteria works. does anyone make what i need ?
one that has a spare mag carrier. AND is there such an animal out there that doesn't utilize the strap that goes on your belt .... a holster , in other words , that will carry the gun fairly tight to the body and can be secure until ready to use . YES , i realize this isn't made for the quickest presentation .
would like it to fit glock 19 w/spare mag , or commander size 1911 w/ spare mag again. i understand that may well be two different holsters.
discovered a company named pistol wear that has close to what i want . 2 drawbacks are most of their models are for fairly small guns & i do not believe any of their offerings provide for a spare mag carry .
thanks rock

You didn't ask for advice about your design, but permit me to say I agree with Pistol Wear that putting spare mags on the same side as a medium pistol is a bad idea if you have to wear the thing all day.
The spare mag needs to go on the other side, and even small elastic clip straps to your pants make shoulder rigs much more comfortable.

I agree with OKFC05 on this. Off side ammo and anchor straps make the rig much more wearable IMHO.
